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. Finally, when packing, don’t pack the cruise line umbrella, dressing gown, binoculars or other bits and pieces around the cabin. You will likely be charged for those and often at a much higher amount than i…

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,…

Brussels Belgium: tips for travellers and my video tours

…ving at the fairly uncharming railway station and travelling to the hotel (Sheraton Brussels) we had the feeling that it was not going to be the most appealing cities, but by the time we left (hobbling off on crutches with a plaster cast) our opinion had changed. Two guys who work with me are from Brussels and when I had asked them for tips, they seemed almost nervous and reticent to suggest much and implied that there was not a lot to do. Though…

…s were very comfortable, although not like the new beds at places like the Sheraton – but I had great night sleeps there. There is a good desk to work out, and like all hotels in the Concorde chain offers free wireless access. The bathroom was large and great. It was very white with large windows making it very bright. There were 2 basins and a separate toilet room. Hotel Lutetia Paris Room 419, originally uploaded by garybembridge. There are vari…

…a good size with a large king size bed (they are not as comfortable as the Sheraton) they are good – and I slept very well. There is, like most revamped Hilton’s I have stayed in, a great working area with good sized desk, proper desk chair and all the plugs you need. A really good feature. There was also a nice fruit selection, small bottle of red wine and free bottles of water. The overall decor was clean and modern, bright and airy without bein…

…s are not that comfortable as they have not been upgraded like chains like Sheraton has done. There is a large flat screen TV with a fairly good selection of international programs, including things like BBC1 and BBC2. The fitness centre is on the 4th floor and you have to go to reception to sign a waiver form to use it, so try and remember to ask for that on check-in so you don’t have to make a trip down to reception in your gym kit. The fitness…

Cunard World Cruise Week Five Highlights (San Francisco to Hawaii)

…ce. After tendering across it was about a 20-minute transfer by bus to the Sheraton Maui Hotel, which was one of a series of hotels along the beach. While the beach is public included in the package was a chair, free drink and discount on lunch at two of the hotel’s poolside restaurants. They offered upgrades to a lounger and umbrellas or a two-person cabana, which consisted of two loungers with plush cushions and cover. We chose the latter at a c…

Hotel du Louvre Paris France. A Luxury Paris Hotel With Style.

…ry room is different and so not like staying in a chain hotel like Hilton, Sheraton etc. I have been staying at the Hotel du Louvre in Paris on and off for many years. It is funny how your tastes evolve, and what you come to value and changes. When I first stayed there, I found it stuffy, old fashioned and not very appealing. Now I love staying there for its traditional style, big comfy beds, outstanding service and (very un-french in many ways) w…
