SHERATON BARRA HOTEL RIO DE JANEIRO: Poor overall with a fab beach opposite

…um the rooms are off at Sherton Barra Rio Room 123 Sheraton Barra Room 123 Sheraton Barra Rio Sheraton Barra Hotel Pool from room 123 The Sheraton Barra in Rio is very dissapointing, which is a real pity as it is by a really fabulous beach. The hotel is not in the main part of Rio, and is away from the action so not the best for new tourist visitors to Rio. It took almost 2 hours on a Friday evening to get there by car from the airport, although t…

Sheraton on the Falls at Niagara Falls Canada. Amazing views!

…el it is also quite a dated style, but the staff are enthusiastic, welcoming and helpful. This is true of everyone I came across from the valet parking, reception, executive lounge and also in the stores like Starbucks and Gift Shops that are located (but not run) by Sheraton. The room was clean, and the bed and pillows very comfortable. It is a bit dated in fixtures, but in good condition and looked after. I enjoyed my stay here. Like most people…

Sheraton Sand Key Resort Clearwater Beach Florida – Tips For Travellers Video Review

…ildren and are looking for a good value hotel with pool and beach then the Sheraton in Clearwater is worth considering. Alternatively good for conferences. If you are looking for a restful time lying by the pool then stay clear. It has kids at the pool playing noisily from early morning into early evening. They clearly love the pool here but not great if you don’t enjoy that noise or want to be able to enjoy the pool. It is less full of kids and f…

SHERATON PARIS CDG AIRPORT HOTEL (review, video, photos)

…hat looks right onto a taxing area and runway was a plus of staying at the Sheraton Paris CDG Airport Hotel. Sad but true! The hotel is the only one within the airport terminals at Paris CDG, situated after terminal 2E and walkable from any of the Terminal 2 areas. It is a modern looking hotel with a nice look and feel in the public rooms. The rooms are large, and well equipped with huge desk, sofa, big and comfortable bed. The bathroom is a bit d…

Rainbow Towers (formerly Sheraton), Harare Zimbabwe: review and video

…his hotel has recently been renamed the RAINBOW TOWERS, and is no longer a Sheraton run property as they have pulled out of the country. I am not sure if this was their call or they were pushed out or just left as they made no money. If you are mad enough to visit Zimbabwe, which is spiraling into a complete mess and economically is now pretty much a wreck (inflation is over 1000% and prices go up every day!), then this is the only hotel to stay i…

SHERATON BRUSSELS: review and video

We stayed here for 2 nights as part of a birthday weekend treat for my Mother. While we were away, I fractured my ankle in an accident I had in the street and the conceirge was an absolute star at helping to arrange ice, then a wheelchair and directions and help to the Accident & Emergency at a nearby hospital. The next day when we checked out, they also went out of their way to help us. Despite that and the accident, I found the hotel helpful an…

Hotel Review: Sheraton Belgravia, London UK

Hotel Review: Sheraton Belgravia, London UK

Due to the location of this hotel, in one of London’s premium areas, it is a very expensive hotel to stay in usually. I am not sure that it is good value for money, even if cost is not a big issue for you as it is not particularly attractive and lacks many features (such as a health club, variety of bars and restaurants etc). It is, though, in a fabulous location close to Sloane Street, Knightsbridge and the Kings Road. So fabulous if you like sh…

HILTON MILLENIUM HOTEL, NEW YORK, USA: noisy due to ground zero building

…ge flat screen TV. The bed is large but not as comfortable as those at the Sheraton or Westin. There is a surprising lack of choice of places to eat or drink. There is only a very small bar in the lobby and one restaurant on the 3rd floor (which did a satisfactory but not stunning buffet). There is a fitness centre but I did not get to it on this trip. The hotel is right next to the famous Century 21 discount label department store and an easy 10…

Sydney (Australia) Hotels: Tips from a local!

…uality, and package, are all the best in Sydney. 6. Though well known, the Sheraton and Hilton hotels in Sydney are not very nice places to stay. The Sheraton is basically mediocre, but the rack room at the Hilton is very small with minimal storage space, and views that aren’t ideal. It is as though they made rooms smaller to take more guests. 7. While in Australia, it is extremely worthwhile to take a flight to the Gold Coast, and spend a night a…
