SHERATON PARIS CDG AIRPORT HOTEL (review, video, photos)

As a bit of a travel geek, staying in a room with a big window in front of the desk that looks right onto a taxing area and runway was a plus of staying at the Sheraton Paris CDG Airport Hotel. Sad but true! The hotel is the only one within the airport terminals at Paris CDG, situated after terminal 2E and walkable from any of the Terminal 2 areas. It is a modern looking hotel with a nice look and feel in the public rooms. The rooms are large, an…

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…

…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

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…
