…op, which is 276 meters high, you have to take an elevator up. There are 2 restaurants, both are expensive: “Altitude 95” which is on the first floor and so called as it is 95 meters above sea level. It looks out over the Seine and the Trocadero and inside of the tower on the other. It’s supposed to be capturing the sense of being an airship above Paris. And it’s quite big. It seats about 200 people. Then there’s the very up market, Jules Verne Re…

On the Grills area there is a lounge, the 2 restaurants and then an alfresco dining area and 2 large decks with very comfortable loungers. We were in a very nice suite which was a Q3 Penthouse Suite. It is an unusual shape, as the video I made shows. It had a very comfortable Sealey bed, seating area,…

Madrid Spain: my top travel tips for a weekend break in this stylish city

…stylish. Madrid and Spain is renowned for amazing food. There are amazing restaurants all round the town. One thing you will need to get used to is that in Spain things only start late, and so it is hard to find great places to eat until after 9pm and later into the night. This is also true of bars, it is part of the culture and so expect to be out late! One thing I found interesting is that on the tours and generally around, one got a sense that…

…se. 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 stylishly that it almost seems criminal to eat.

The restaurants are very popular and my Greek colleagues told me that they are especially pop…

Cunard Queen Victoria: 4 nights cruise May 2008: My Journal

…staurant so great to see everything going on! The Queen and Princess Grill restaurants are on this deck, high up on the ship with stunning view across the ocean. Of course the restaurant is beautiful, the service is excellent, with 2 waiters called Kelvin (from the Philippines) and Michael (from Malaysia). The wine waiter, though I think they call themselves sommeliers, as they are being posh, is a chap called Kevin who was our wine waiter on the…

Koh Samui Thailand. Travel Tips And Top Things To See and Do

…ng cheap and rip-off merchandise, loads of tourist fare, rather than Thai, restaurants and theme bars. There is no real sense of Thai culture or “Thai-ness” about the place. I felt like I could have been at Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands or one of the intensely developed Spanish resorts in the Costa Brava. This was a disappointment. We hired a car for a few days, but ended up not using it that much. The island itself is not that large and so y…
