Craigsland Hotel, Ilkley, Yorkshire. Good value hotel ideal for wedding and events

…iFi. We could not get it in the room, but in the more central parts of the hotel worked fine and was pretty fast. It is so good to get free wi-fi – and seems that more reasonable priced hotels offer it included but higher star ones don’t! Fairly good things: – Service. Overall service was good and friendly, without being intrusive. The hotel was holding a Wedding Fair on the Sunday and service was a bit less good as everyone as focused on that, bu…

Hotel Lutetia Paris (video, photos, review)

Hotel Lutetia Paris (video, photos, review)

Hotel Lutetia Paris (4), originally uploaded by garybembridge. The Hotel Lutetia in Paris is a hotel with a history and an association for Parisians that is not always entirely positive. The hotel can (and does) claim to have been a place where artists like Matisse and Picasso were in residence, but the hotel site and in-room information does not mention that this hotel was taken over by the Nazis during the occupation of Paris and France and was…

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

…rd no street noise. The restaurant is not that good and the food is pretty dull hotel fare with slow and not very efficient waiters (who struggle to remember your order … I was tempted to buy them a pad and pen so they could write the orders down). They have a good sized and well equipped gym that is open 24 hours for guests. (handy for jet lagged travellers!). The meeting rooms are pretty good and in the gardens, and the food etc fine. One tip on…

Hotel Cascais Miragem Lisbon (Review, Video & Photos)

…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…

LE TOUSSEROK HOTEL MAURITIUS: a stunning hotel on this stunning island.

…tted about and every single meal involves screaming children. It seems the hotel attracts couples who don’t mind their children screaming and intruding….. I think the hotel, as also a magnet for couples and honeymooners, could easily have a family dining room or area – or have a family dining time and then slightly later child free one. The non-inclusive restaurants (Safran and barlens) are good but very expensive. Even with the credits if you eat…

Hotel Pentelikon (Athens, Greece) Review and Video

…ll of houses and has a very large and developed shopping area.However, the hotel itself is an oasis in this suburb. The original hotel build in the 1920s is right on the street with a grand looking entrance and lobby area with huge sweeping staircase. It looks lush, rich and luxurious on entering.Just off the lobby are 2 restaurants which are pretty pricey, with one having a Michelin star. They do have fabulous food which is presented so well and…

Renaissance Capital Hotel, Chaoyang, Beijing, China

Renaissance Capital Hotel, Chaoyang, Beijing, China

…found a taxi driver passed round the entrance 3 times trying to locate the hotel. The hotel is located in the Central Business District and is not an ideal location for tourists as not that handy for the sites, and is seems that it is very quiet. While I was there the hotel was very quiet, and I did feel there was more staff than there were guests. There is not a lot within walking distance, though there is a large Mall with a huge selection of sh…

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…
