Letchworth Hall Hotel, Hertfordshire, England: Amazing value and great weekend break

…d found that service was good and the overall attitude and approach of the hotel was positive. The hotel seems to be focused on a business that is about weddings at weekends, conferences in week and then fills the 80+ rooms with deals. While we were there we also had Sheffield United footballers staying before their game the next day, and there was a coach party staying one night. The hotel was a large old house with a great hall, where they serve…

Rosen Shingle Creek Hotel Orlando Florida – Tips For Travellers Video Review

…tips for travellers visiting Orlando and the hotel.   I also wrote a short review of the hotel which said: I stayed at the Rosen Shingle Creek Orlando for two nights as part of a group tour of Florida. Overall liked the hotel although you need a car to enjoy Orlando as it is not close to any restaurants, shops etc. It is set in huge grounds with a golf course and seems to be geared towards conference and golf guests than family-focused theme park…

These 7 Things Throw Norwegian Fjords Cruisers Every Time!

…ke design. And of course, they have trolls everywhere. Always check on the label where they’re made. I would stress again that Norway is very expensive. The currency is the Norwegian kroner, and because it’s not the Euro, the exchange rate is more complicated, it’s easy to get confused about how much you’re paying. Make sure you understand it. On the plus side, many of the souvenir shops will take Euros and some will take dollars or UK Sterling. I…

I Tried the World’s “Most Popular Small Ship Cruise” Line: Windstar Cruises

…ut the overall dress code was very relaxed. This was not a flashy designer label for dinner experience, it was more like when I have been on an expedition cruise. 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,…

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

…spots like Impanema/ Copacabana and the tourist attractions. But then the hotel makes it worse! The hotel clearly is very busy due to its location near a very nice and popular beach, and so is busy with holiday makers, wedding parties (zillions of them) and conference visitors. The hotel decor is dated and shabby, stuck in the 1980s with little of the flair and passion one expects (and gets) usually in Brazil. The staff are also disinterested, of…

Monkey Island Hotel. Bray, England. Good for weddings! Not to stay!

…bout the Monkey Island Hotel for about a decade. I worked not far from the hotel out in Maidenhead. The hotel is located between Maidenhead and Windsor, and about 45 minutes from London. I had thought it was an up-market and plush hotel. It looks great from the outside and the gardens, but the rest was disappointing. To be fair to the hotel we paid only about £100 on a deal for a night, dinner and breakfast. So it was very cheap. But it is clear t…

Hotel Room Review: Sofitel Los Angeles

…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 warmly greeted and altho…
