Novotel Hotel St Pancras London (review, video & photos)

…r for people getting on late at night. The hotel lobby, as many people who review the hotel will say, looks good and modern. This is not bad since I think the hotel used to be a rather dire office block when I first moved to London about 20 years ago. The bedrooms are neat enough, and effort has been made to given them a modern look. The roof is quite low and although a good size the overall effect is a bit stark. The beds are not very comfortable…

Continental Airlines USA Review

The most read posts on the blog are those that review airline seats and service, and so here is my thoughts on Continental Airlines in the USA.. It always strikes me as amazing at how poor the whole domestic air travel experience is within the USA. It makes me wonder why no carrier has stepped up (or in) with a flying experience that turns the whole horrible process into something more bearable. I know that Virgin is now trying this with the laun…

Fairmont Royal Pavilion Barbados: Review, Photos and Video

…Barbados in the Caribbean. You generally find when searching or looking at reviews of the hotel that they are usually glowing and favorable. I am very much in this camp.

It is all about relaxing and lying about on what is probably one of the best beaches on the island. The first time we c…

Virgin Atlantic Lounge Gatwick (review and pictures)

…airport lounge around. You can read and see more about that lounge in the review I did by clicking here. The last time I was in a Virgin lounge at Gatwick was years ago, and the lounge now is light years ahead of what it used to be. It is not on the scale of the London Heathrow one, but is still impressive with great facilities. Free to Upper Class (Virgin’s business class) passengers, they seem to also sell access for around £25 ($50) a person….

Athens, Greece: Part 1 Hotel Pentelikon Review & Video

…Pentelikon. Below is a video of the room which was very nice indeed and a review. I did not make another video for this trip as the room was identical (just faced the pool this time). The Hotel Pentelikon is situated in Kifissia which is a suburb of Athens. Apparently many years ago the wealthy residents of Athens would retreat to Kifissia on the weekends and stay at hotels like this to escape the pollution and heat of Athens to take some “clean…
