Palais de la Mediterranee Hotel, Nice, France (Review, Video & Photos)

Palais de la Mediterranee Hotel, Nice, France (Review, Video & Photos)

We chose to stay at this hotel based on the ratings, reviews and pictures that we had seen on the tripadvisor.com site. And very pleased we were with the choice! We stayed at the hotel for 4 nights from 28 Dec to the 1 January. We booked a sea view room, but as people in the reviews I had read, the room has more of a “glance” at the sea as you can only see it from the balcony! But that was fine as the balcony is very pleasant and had a good open…

Chauncey Conference Center, Princeton, New Jersey: Review and Videos

Chauncey Conference Center, Princeton, New Jersey: Review and Videos

This was the 2nd time that I stayed at this place. Not by choice I have to stress!! I was involved in running 2 training events and both were booked in at this hotel/ conference center. And I have to say I was DREADING going back there. Why? 1) The food is really, really bad. There are 2 places to eat (and of course the room service where you can have a burger… or a burger or a burger. The main restaurant has the most strange combinations of food…

Royal Plaza Hotel, Montreux, Switzerland (Review, Video and Photos)

Royal Plaza Hotel, Montreux, Switzerland (Review, Video and Photos)

I stayed at this hotel for 4 nights in mid January 2006 for a conference. This hotel is right on Lake Geneva and you get the most amazing views of the lake and the mountains. But make sure when you book and check in that you get one of the rooms facing the lake – or you may find yourself in a room overlooking the road at the back. This will be a terrible outcome as the views are just quite breath taking. I have posted photos of how lovely the lak…

Korean Air Club Business Class Seats (Photos, Review and Video)

I took these photos on a flight from Tokyo Narita to Seoul Incheon airports of the Korean Air Club/ Business Class Cabin and Seats. Overall I thought the seats were pretty good. Although they are not the “lie flat” horizontal type they do go flat but are at an angle, but the seats are wide as as they sore of slide underneath the seat in front you do not have that annoying and “closed in feeling” you get when the seat in front of you goes back and…

Ritz Carlton Millenia Singapore: Review, Video & Photos

Ritz Carlton Millenia Singapore: Review, Video & Photos

I stayed in this hotel as part of a 2 week business trip. The week before I had been in Seoul. The contrast with the efficient but not particularly service orientated hotel in Seoul to the Ritz Carlton was, therefore, probably accentuated even more than normal. Saying that, while I quite liked the hotel, I have probably stayed at better hotels in Singapore. But there is no doubting that this hotel is a good hotel and is a good place to stay. It i…

Grecotel Cape Sounio Athens (24), originally uploaded by garybembridge. Click here to see the full gallery of my pictures of the hotel It is about 65 Kms for the centre of Athens and about 35 Kms from the airport and on the Aegean coast.

The hotel itself is very stylish in design with e…

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…

Hotel Review, Photos & Video: Suites at One King West Toronto Room 2910(14)

Suites at One King West Toronto Room 2910 (14), originally uploaded by garybembridge. I have really mixed feelings about this hotel. I had a really great room on the 29th floor (2910) which seems to be larger than many of the other rooms and had a very comfortable large bed, sofa and the desk area and a small kitchen area. In the kitchen area is a washing machine, tumble dryer, microwave and fridge. the decor was stylish, the pictures on the wall…

Hotel Room Review: Sofitel Los Angeles

Hotel Room Review: Sofitel Los Angeles

I really liked this hotel. Having seen the pictures of the outside online, I had expected the hotel to be somewhat ordinary, functional and fairly sterile. It turned out to be none of these. The hotel recently went through an 😯 million dollar renovation which has turned it into a trendy, funky but stylish place – although the outside (other than the grand glass entrance) still looks plain and uninspiring. When you walk into the lobby you are warm…

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…
