Hotel Cascais Miragem Lisbon (Review, Video & Photos)

Hotel Cascais Miragem Lisbon 2007 (1), originally uploaded by garybembridge. What a beautiful hotel this is! I only wished as soon as I got there that I was both staying longer and that I was there for a vacation rather than the work conference that I as attending. It seemed almost criminal not to be on holiday here. The hotel is big with a large open and dramatic lobby area that soars up high, with large glass staircase and glass sided lifts. It…

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

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

…it on this trip. The hotel is right next to the famous Century 21 discount label department store and an easy 10 minute walk to South Street Sea Port area with its shops and museums and the major drop off and pick up for the round Manhattan bus tours. But overall, it is not a very handy destination for tourists as far from the shopping areas and Central Park etc. Overall, I liked the room a lot but the noise of construction did wake me up earlier…

The Best Way To End Your Cruise: Getting Disembarkation Day Right

…if you are putting your luggage out keep the tear off tag from the luggage label, that will remind you what allocated slot you have and, as some cruise lines require us to show our luggage tag colour to let you off the ship, the allocated time.

On the plus side, many of the souvenir shops will take Euros and some will take dollars or UK Sterling. I…

In short, were what you bring and wear was low on the list. Personal Feel The third thing was with a maximum of 312 guests and 200 crew. People said they liked that they got to know the crew and vice versa. They liked always being called by name. As the same crew would man lunch, dinner,…

Hilton Hotel Orly Airport Paris France (Review, Photos, Video)

…rybembridge. I stayed at the hotel for one night before an early flight to Lisbon. The hotel is very close to the Orly Oust terminal, although not close enough to walk to. There is a free shuttle bus that runs from 6am to midnight. It only takes a handful of minutes to get to the terminal. Not sure how long to the South Terminal but cannot be more than a few minutes at most. This hotel overall is fine. It is old fashioned on the outside and revamp…

I Paid A Fortune to Cruise On “New” Crystal Cruises. Was It Worth It?
