The Hotel on the Park, Cheltenham, Cotswold England. Positives and Negatives?

…g to the hotel via such deals. So we were a bit nervous about going to the hotel based on the reviews we had read. Overall we were pleased by our stay, with the hotel looking much better than we had expected. Though there were some issues that would likely make us not return if we came back to the area. We had decided to upgrade from the deal offer to a “Spa Room”. We realised once there that there are only actually 2 of the rooms (out of 10 in to…

…of my room (1415) on youtube (click here) or on the blog posting: An older review of the hotel from 2007: I have been to Athens 3 times (so far this year): at the end of January for a meeting, in June for a conference and then again for a short meeting. In January and now in August, I stayed in the Hotel 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 iden…

Fairmont Hotel Santa Monica, Los Angeles (Hotel Review and Video)

…sit Santa Monica later in the year. I would not recommend it as a vacation hotel. The hotel is roomy, on very nice lush grounds and is very well maintained. The rooms are a good size with very big comfortable beds and small but good bathrooms. There is a good sized desk to work at. The hotel is quiet – and even though I was on the 2nd floor facing the road heard no street noise. The restaurant is not that good and the food is pretty dull hotel far…

…are efficient and friendly and add to the overall welcoming effect of the hotel. The conference rooms are also massive and so I assume the hotel, despite its very vacation feel must host many large conferences and I suspect this may be what accounts for a lot of the out-of-season trade at the hotel as the sorts of rates we were paying for the quality of the hotel were fantastic. They would not be that in summer. I would like to go back through as…

Grand Palace Hotel, Tokyo, Japan (review, video, pictures)

…a lot. Although it is one of the more popular and recommended of the Tokyo hotels. This hotel is so typical of what I find depressing when travelling on business. It is a large, very dated and beige hotel situated out of the main buzzing centre of town in a suburb full of uninspiring office blocks. It gets a busy and regular trade from people like me staying near the office and from busloads of tourists on economic packages. The hotel is very larg…

…ption of anyone desperate to play and be near to a golf course next to the hotel). The Hotel Barcelo is located in the suburbs of Marbella but is designed like a beach hotel. It feels a bit like someone forgot to mention to the architects it was nowhere near water. It is an innocuous hotel that is easily forgotten. It is neither good nor bad. I had a large room as was allocated a suite on the 4th floor which was very pleasant. It had a large entra…

…and seems popular. On the way to the hotel it stops at a Hilton Apartment Hotel and then the hotel. On the way back it stops at that hotel and then 2 other places (which seem to be airport crew or admin buildings) before the terminal. The trip is between about 5 and 10 minutes. The rooms in the hotel seem to have been modernised fairly recently and are designed with the business traveller in mind. Amazingly comfortable beds, pillows and duvets ar…
