New York Hilton Midtown. Reliable and Consisent NYC Hotel

This is my video and review of the massive New York Hilton Midtown. This massive hotel is one of the most well known hotels in New York. It is also one of the biggest, and more popular. This is partly due to the location which is perfect for tourists as it is located on Sixth Avenue (also known as the Avenue of the Americas) at 53rd. So it is in very easy walking distance of Time Square, Fifth Avenue and Central Park. The hotel is over 50 years o…

Sheraton on the Falls at Niagara Falls Canada. Amazing views!

…View rooms. I am very pleased that I did. Take a look at my video tour and review to see more:   I figured that I may likely only ever go to the Niagara falls once, and so it was worth spending a bit to have an amazing view. This room really had it! I made sure I made the most of it. The Sheraton on the Falls is a dated looking hotel, and the change in style and taste of building architecture is the reason for that. The look that was popular when…

Niagara Falls Video Tour. Tacky town. Amazing Falls. Maids of the Mist a must.

…lls Hotel that I had read had amazing views. (It does, and for more see my review!). The town of Niagara Falls is a bit tacky. It has a number of hotels and a lot of cheap looking games arcades and a casino. It is not very up-market in feel. However, the kids visiting seemed to love the arcades – so I guess that means it works. But once you turn your back to the town, the place is really quite something. All along the Falls is well maintained gard…
