My Review

Three Cocks Hotel is an old coaching inn on the road between Brecon and Hay-On-Wye. This building is genuine old oak beams and creaky and uneven floor boards. The service is first class with excellent food and lovely large en-suite rooms. Price for one night for two people with dinner (on the menu worth about £30 each) and breakfast was £115. Excellent value

A very large and confusingly numbered hotel which is in fact several hotels knocked together to make one. Because of it's size it's very busy, especially at breakfast. However, breakfast is good with lots of choice

My Review

Very pleasant and comfortable hotel about 1KM from the very centre of Berlin but with excellent transport links (the bus from the airport stops right outside!) The bedroom was large and comfortable, though slightly chilly. There is a large bathroom with a bath that resembles a swimming pool and a shower that attempts to drill you into the floor it is so powerful, but very refreshing. A delicious buffet breakfast with cold meats, cheeses, breads, fruit and cereals is served in the breakfast room which is, bizarrely, on the 6th floor. It does mean that you get a good view of the Kurfürstendamm whilst eating breakfast. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Small and compact room with a very small shower and toilet room. Helpful without actually being overly friendly service. The room was only quickly tidied each day, rather than actually cleaned and the card key to my room had to be reactivated on all except the last evening. Breakfast are plentiful in food, but not in cutlery or table space!

A comfortable but somewhat soul-less hotel. Very close to the central station. The room was quite large, but had no air-conditioning, which, given it was over 30C when I arrived, was a bit uncomfortable. There was a window but the location of the hotel was very noisy so it was difficult to sleep with it open and difficult to sleep with it closed. The bathroom had a bath and shower, but now shower curtain so it was quite difficult to have a shower. The breakfasts were excellent and the hotel staff were very friendly.

My Review

A very basic service is all that can be accommodated in a train carriage. Each cabin has space for two beds (one on top of the other.) This is reduced to one bed if you pay first class. A lounge car offers an area to relax in and use the bar/cafe. In cabin service is also offered.
There is a wash basin in each cabin and two toilets for each carriage of 12 cabins (maximum of 24 people to a toilet) There are no shower facilities on board but they are available for a price at Inverness and Euston (Free at Euston to First Class ticket holders.) The staff are all very friendly and helpful and make for a pleasant journey, even if you do get woken up when the train splits and joins in Edinburgh in the early hours of the morning and then get disorientate as it reverses back out of Edinburgh and you wake up facing a different direction to the one you went to sleep in! Breakfast is provided free of charge and comprises a large cup of tea or coffee, a cereal/yoghurt thing, a bacon or egg roll and orange juice.
Sleeper service was relaunched with new rolling stock and rooms in 2019 - this review is based on the older rolling stock

The hotel looks considerably more expensive than we were paying for it. The rooms are fairly large with satellite TV and a small kitchenette!! The breakfast was a cold continental buffet but with lots to choose from.

Very friendly and helpful staff, despite it's location just off the main ring road it was very quiet. Excellent breakfasts and a very comfortable, if slightly compact room. Strange layout of hotel with at least 4 different lifts that served 4 completely different parts of the hotel with no links between each part except through the reception. To get from my room on the 6th floor to breakfast on the first floor required coming all the way down to the ground, across the lobby and back up another floor!

N.B. My opinion of this hotel is affected by the fact that it was the only hotel available on a very wet and cold Friday night after the booking agent had let me down. I was in a bad mood so the hotel is probably significantly nicer if it is the one you have actively chosen to stay in. See Hall of Horror

My Review

A pleasant B&B overlooking the Lido just round the headland from the centre of St Hellier. Very basic rooms with shared showers and toilets but with an attractive view from the balcony over the beach. Very nice breakfasts and exceptionally friendly staff and good value for money (£24.50pppn)

An exceptionally comfortable hotel. Located close to Queen Street Station and a short walk from the city centre. The service was friendly and the breakfast very good, though a very British approach to the continental Ham and Cheese breakfast idea - Ham and blocks of cheddar cheese!

An exceptionally comfortable hotel, though they did get the booking wrong and gave us double instead of twin rooms!! The hotel itself is very new and inside it is well presented.

When we finally got into a room it was very pleasant with a view over to the cathedral (on picture below it is the room directly above the white entrance porch!). However, this was a day late as they had double booked us and we had to spend a night in the Wensum Valley Hotel. The staff were friendly and the breakfast was good, and we only had to pay for one night instead of two so there were some plus points!

A very basic service is all that can be accommodated in a train carriage. Each cabin has space for two beds (one on top of the other.) This is reduced to one bed if you pay first class. A lounge car offers an area to relax in and use the bar/cafe. In cabin service is also offered.
There is a wash basin in each cabin and two toilets for each carriage of 12 cabins (maximum of 24 people to a toilet) There are no shower facilities. The staff are all very friendly and helpful and make for a pleasant journey, even if you do get woken up at 3am with the announcements at Exeter St David station going off! Breakfast is provided free of charge and comprises a large cup of tea or coffee, cereal or croissant, a couple of biscuits and orange juice.

The hotel has been created from 3 Georgian houses knocked into one and has a slightly jumbled feel to it. The rooms were quite spacious with TV (Standard channels only) and mini-bar. Continental buffet breakfast with the option to pay the extra for a full Scottish breakfast. About 3 minutes walk from Waverly Bridge and the centre of the city. Very friendly staff make this an enjoyable hotel to stay in (£36 pppn)

Located on the floors directly above a block of shops (a Jewellers, a Slot machine arcade and a "Cabaret show bar" (with lots of flashing lights saying "Erotik" - Don't know what that is about!)) about 100 yards from the Hauptbahnhof this hotel is very centrally located.
Friendly and welcoming staff and a comfortable, if slightly small room, but most importantly for the first time on this trip en-suite!!! The breakfasts are excellent with lots of choice including some hot food and as much, un-watered down, orange juice as you want!!

2004 - Very large room which divides into a bedroom & an office. Very comfortable. Friendly staff & good service. Breakfast consisted of just a croissant & a cup of tea. The hotel mostly caters for the business market, so has no on-site catering. However, you can buy food & drink from the hotel shop & consume it in your room (they even provide you with a kettle & a microwave to cook it in!)
2020 - Despite the hotel being rebranded from SuiteHotel to Novotel Suites in the interveening 16 years it doesn't look as though the rooms have been refurbished as the colour scheme was still that of SuiteHotel, though the beds had been upgraded. Still very large room which divides into a bedroom & an office. Very comfortable. Friendly staff & good service. Breakfast is now provided - though at the time of visiting under heavy Covid-19 restrictions. You can still buy food & drink from the hotel shop & consume it in your room (they even provide you with a kettle & a microwave to cook it in!)

Very cramped room (4 people in a space smaller than an Etap room), and quite stuffy. The beds were horribly uncomfortable and the pillows effectively non existent (if it hadn't been for checking I would quite happily believe that the pillow case was just stuffed with other pillow cases.
The breakfasts were very mean with "Only one glass of juice per guest, no more allowed" and all the hams and salamis cut up into much smaller pieces so you couldn't take so much in your one visit!

The hotel had obviously been something else previously as it looks nothing like any of the other Ibis's I have stayed in. Service good, breakfast good, shower very poor as it only had two setting - scold or chill - and kept alternating between them without any human intervention!

Given that the hotel is only 1 year old it's not in the greatest of shape, many of the fixtures were broken or not in the best shape, the shower holder was held together with tape, there was a slight smell of drains in reception and there were cigarette marks everywhere! Everything is forgiven though once you have tried the bed (exceptionally comfortable) or the Breakfast (plentiful)

Located just below the Castle this hotel is in a prime location. Sadly the walls are thinner than paper so you can hear everything else that goes on in the hotel

My Review

Exceptionally comfortable hotel with stunning breakfasts (2006), In 2013 I was given a room in the annex which was dated and less comfortable. Also given it was across the road from the reception, bar and breakfast area it meant either having to take a coat with you to go to eat, or getting cold walking between the two buildings.
A sprawling hotel that has grown from the original 1930's building to cover two further, newer, buildings on the opposite side of Håkonsgatan. The original building and the newest are the more comfortable and have better facilities. Sadly on the second visit in January 2013 I had a room in the third building and the room was quite small and dated.

Only put up in the hotel because the sleeper was cancelled. The room was quite small, but had a stunning view over princes street to the Castle and Scot Monument. Sadly, it was single glazed so very noisy and I didn’t get much sleep

My Review

This review is biased as I was upgraded to a very nice cabin with a balcony and a free minibar! Room was spacious and very comfortable
As a floating hotel, effectively, the ferry has a lot of amenities, and a choice of places to eat dinner and breakfast, which you can have buffet style, and over eat at!

Small and comfortable room, but it was only cleaned once in the four nights I stayed

My Review

Considering it is supposed to be superior to the neighbouring Etap that I stayed in the last time I came to Zurich, the Ibis is considerably inferior for service and quality!
The key card had to be changed twice to get one that worked, the door kept jamming, and despite booking 5 months in advance with clear instructions for a no smoking room I got one that stank of stale smoke. In addition the hotel instead of taking an impression of my credit card as security charged Sf600 (£300) directly to it to be refunded back when I left!

A converted jail, this should be a really interesting a great hotel, but I can't see what they have converted. The only difference between a jail cell and your room is the fact that you can open the door from the inside, other than that the beds are uncomfortable, and the room cramped
No facilities in the room, which for the cost is a shock, Breakfast was a shambles and poorly organised. It looks like they have had a good idea, but poorly executed it

***Hotel now closed (December 2019)*** Once you get over the reception staff who appear totally disinterested in the hotel, it's actually quite pleasant. The rooms are large, with a decent ensuite and it's very handily located just by the bus stop to the airport (three stops further on)
Breakfast is a little limited in choice, but there is plenty of it.
Hotel has subsequently closed and was derelict (2019)

Small hotel located just back from the Grand Canal. The rooms are quite small, with the bathroom being particularly compact.

My Review

A pretty bog standard Travelodge, to the extent that, if it wasn’t for the giant sign on the supermarket it is next door to telling you that this is Berwick you could be in any town in the country.
My only dealing with staff was a check-in and out as I hadn’t brought breakfast (a small pack which I had had in Plymouth and decided wasn’t worth the money, especially with a supermarket on the doorstep). They were helpful and friendly in the short interactions that I had with them. The main negative was that the room was not properly cleaned each day.

It should have been a good hotel, there were no problems with the room or the hotel
It's just being kept awake all night by the mice that are in the room kind of puts you off and makes you query the cleaning and running of the hotel! A thorough apology from the manager and a refund did follow a couple of weeks later though.

***N.B. this hotel is now a Holiday Inn - see seprate review*** Centrally located, the hotel is one of the largest in Belfast.
Consequently it is very busy, but not sufficiently staffed, so there were queues to check in, queues to check out, queues to get seated for breakfast. The room was comfortable and the food was good.
Hotel has changed ownership and is now part of the Holiday Inn chain - I have subsequently booked to stay at the Holiday Inn (June 2020)

A comfortable hotel in the centre of town. At one point the Regent hotel was one of the largest and most important hotels in Europe, but time and owners have not treated it too kindly and its now a pleasant Travelodge with slightly larger than average rooms
The staff are friendly and helpful, there are no catering facilities in the hotel, so breakfast is a cold goodie bag, or the nearby Tesco's!

A comfortable, but not particularly conveniently located hotel near the main airport in Madrid.
Service was good and the staff were friendly, but a key part of an airport hotel is it's links to the airport. The shuttle bus was quite unreliable and infrequent. As it was also the only way of easily getting into the city without an expensive taxi ride it was a bit of a poor show (especially as many of the other hotels appeared to have much more frequent services)

Friendly and helpful staff, but they can't take away from the fact that this hotel is pretty much the last building in Jerez located 20 minutes walk (uphill) from the old town and the best part of an hour from the station. There are bus links around 8 minutes walk away.
Not helping matters was the complete loss of water one morning! On the positive side breakfasts were good, but not enough to make up for the price of the hotel

What should have been a good hotel was spoilt by the shambles caused by the hotels decision to overbook itself and close it's restaurant so that it was impossible to have Breakfast that I'd paid for but they then refused to refund
The staff were not particularly polite or helpful, the rooms were overpoweringly hot. The hotel had the feel of one which nobody cared much about. However, I subsequently got a very full apology from the manager, along with a refund for the breakfast that never happened.

My Review

Located on the banks of the Rhine with stunning views across to the fortress (and more importantly it being one of the ugliest buildings in town you can't see it from inside itself!)
Staff were all friendly and helpful, but everything was a bit let down by the checkout process, the couldn't check me out of the room as the computer was playing up and it's only when I pointed out that I had a train to catch that they agreed to just bill my card later.

The hotel was not helped from having two floors closed for repairs, and, despite being built in 2009, not having any air conditioning during an exceptionally hot and sticky time.
On one night I got virtually no sleep and the other only limited amounts. Staff were friendly and helpful but very few of them around, consequently the bar closed at 21:30 each evening
Hotel has changed ownership since my original stay

The score would have been better if the fire alarm hadn't gone off just before 1am inturrupting a very enjoyable sleep, achieved thanks to the very comfortable beds
Amazing breakfasts with lots of choice. Hotel is about a Kilometer from the ariport so is easily walkable (rather than a very expensive taxi ride - £15 for 3 mintues)

The oldest still operating ship in the Hurtigruten fleet, this is very much a traditional ship. Consequently the cabins are quite small and basic, as is the boat with the lack of stabalisers for some parts of the journey more unpleasent than the lack of wi-fi!
Being a small ship it's got a much smaller number of crew, and consequently a much friendly and more intimate feel. Service is first class with outstanding (and possibly excessive amounts of) food

Conveniently located next to the railway station (but consequently a good 20 minute walk from the old town). Modern hotel with friendly and helpful staff.

A not particularly great example of a Novotel. Located a bit of a way out of town.
The staff were friendly and helpful, but the rooms were small compared to other Novotels and the choice at breakfast was lacking

The world's most northerly full service hotel, and it is clear that 4 stars in the arctic wilderness is not the same as 4 stars in the centre of a major international city. However, everything was there and the service was excellent
Staff were friendly and helpful, food was excellent and the rooms were comfortable

Hotel in a great location, though slightly bizare check-in as you have to do so in the neighbouring Urban Design hotel (same owners)
Small room with tiny bed, due to the age of the room no wall was at right-angles so the bed didn't quite fit against the wall it was up against meaing pillows kept sliding down the gap

I'd splashed out on a five star to end my long trip round the Balkans in, I really wish I hadn't. The hotel was tired, particulalry the fittings the bathroom and the carpets
I was given a deluxe room - which is Sheratons bog standard room - that looked onto the lift lobby and to add to the disruption that caused to sleep there was also an internet router on the desk in the room that blinked away all night. Really poor

My Review

At the time of visiting the hotel was undergoing extensive renovation with the bar area receiving modernisation, the rooms look like they had already been done as they were comfortable and modern
Excellent food, friendly and helpful staff and comfortable (if compact) rooms make this a lovely hotel

Only downsides were the creaking floor above that made it sound like there were Elephants in the room above, and the breakfast being served in the next door TGI Friday that required walking through the rain to get to.

Very comfortable hotel located in almost the perfect location. A bit noisy at night as it's right behind the Campo, but with the double glazed windows shut most of the noise is cut out
Breakfast are a bit poor with some odd choices available - there are lots of cafes nearby that will do a cheaper breakfast

Excellent Premier Inn located in the heart of the Titanic quarter, a short walk from the Titanic Experience. This does mean it's a bit of a walk from the rest of town though

Excellent airport hotel, located far enough away from the airport for it to be quiet but close enough to be reachable in around 15 minutes by shuttle bus.
The staff were all incredibly friendly, cheerful and helpful. The room was comfortable and dinner in the restaurant was of a very high quality. Most importantly, on a very hot and muggy evening the air-conditioning in the room worked perfectly and kept the room beautifully cold.

A nice hotel in a great location with comfortable rooms and helpful staff, but chaotically organised. The room wasn't ready when I arrived and took 3 hours to be made ready (thankfully I'd found other things to do in the meantime)
On the Sunday evening both the bar and restaurant were closed as there weren't sufficient staff to cover - despite the hotel being quite busy. All in all a good hotel damaged by poor management

After arriving late (gone midnight) I wasn't expecting to have to head back to reception as the room hadn't been cleaned since the last guest had stayed. Despite the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff on duty at the time it's difficult to overlook something as simple as the room cleaning
Once clean the room was spacious and comfortable and the breakfast later in the morning was of a high standard

Comfortable hotel with stunning views from the higher floors over the city.
When I stayed the hotel was very quiet due to recent events in the city, but the staff were all very friendly and helpful

After a poor start with a long check-in and a poor room the hotel redeemed itself on the 2nd and 3rd nights with a much bigger and quieter room

A massive tower block of a hotel at the very centre of the new town. From the 28th floor the views were excellent. The room was comfortable and modern
Breakfast in a hotel so large was a bit of a bun fight to get food and a table, but the staff were helpful and friendly on the first visit in 2017. On the second visit in 2018 staff on checkin attempted to downgrade me - which was a little dissapointing

Comfortable room and in a great location overlooking the harbour. The hotel itself though was quite dated with the rooms looking tired and in need of redecoration
The staff were efficient, and those in the breakfast room were very friendly and helpful, but in other places it felt the service was a bit forced and the smiles a little fake. The major issue was everything was an expensive extra including $16 a night for internet access - the main aim of the hotel appeared to be to get even more money out of the guests after they had already paid not insignificant amounts for the roooms.

My Review

The hotel is in a great location next to the Natural History Museum and it's associated U-Bahn and Tram stops. It's a short walk (or two stop tram ride) to the Hauptbahnhof and connections all over the city.
Rooms are comfortable, though the single duvets mean it's difficult to take full advantage of the double bed if you're by yourself. Staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast room is large and can be busy at times, but the service is fast and the buffet is constantly replenished

Comfortable hotel in a great location. Staff were helpful, though room wasn't ready on arrival despite having checked in online in advance. Hotel is made up of a number of buildings joined together and consequently the part of the hotel I was in wasn't reachable by lift

Comfortable, if slightly odd hotel located within the terminal building of the South Terminal at Gatwick. Some of the rooms are internal so have no windows. Rooms are compact and everything is run from a tablet by the bed
The bed was comfortable and the shower was good. As the exit from the hotel is right by security its perfect for an early flight

Unable to rate the hotel for the accommodation as the trip had to be abandoned due to storms closing the island
However the rating is based on the customer service - despite them being able to re-let the room to someone stranded on the island due to the cancelled flights they refused to refund my booking - effectively profiteering from the disruption, which is a sign of a hotel that has little respect for it's guests or reputation

Staff were friendly, but competence wasn't great as they ended up double billing my credit card, which was corrected, but only after I got charged a much higher transaction fee than I should have done

My Review

A comfortable hotel let down by poor staffing who either don't know what they are doing or refuse to communicate with each other
Room was comfortable, breakfasts - when you finally get to it (and assuming the staff don't clear your freshly poured cup of coffee away whilst your getting some food) were good. Staff clearly didn't communicate with each other as there was no record of who was having breakfast. On checkout they were unable to produce a receipt, and what was finally produced was a no show invoice - its either incompetence or VAT fraud!

The hotel is in an excellent location, close to the main beach and a short walk from the open-top bus tours and bus station.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful, the breakfasts were excellent and the room was spacious and comfortable. The only real downside were that the pillows weren't the most comfortable and of an odd design that meant one wasn't enough but two had you sleeping at an odd angle

Small apartments located in a building over shops in the heart of the city centre. The check-in process was a bit weird with me having to arrange in advance to mee the agent outside the building.
The room was spacious and comfortable, the breakfasts were delivered as a hamper to your door each morning and plentiful (I think the agents though it was two people in the room as the breakfast was clearly for two people!)

What could have been a good hotel spoiled by poor customer service (being told I had to move rooms to a different floor beacause a VIP wanted the room I had). Lack of care from staff and not great breakfasts

A former seafront hotel that has been extended, refurbished and upgraded into a modern Premier Inn. I had a sea front room, which still had traces of the Victorian hotel room, but all the advantages of a Premier Inn room, including really good Air Conditioning, which was a boon as I visited whilst the weather was quite humid.
Rooms are comfortable, staff are all friendly and helpful and the breakfasts are plentiful.

Located on the edge of town, right next to the mainline station (Wrexham General), this comfortable hotel has all the standard features of an Excellent Premier Inn including friendly and welcoming staff, comfortable rooms and excellent breakfasts.
When I stayed it was particularly warm with a mini-heatwave hitting Wales. The air conditioning in the room proved to be well up to the demands with the room being a beautiful icy palace to walk back into from the humid hot air outside

Very comfortable apart hotel complex located to the south of the city centre. Large comfortable apartments with a good bar/shop area located on the ground floor and a good breakfast provided in the mornings. Friendly and helpful staff.
About the only downside (and it's not the hotels fault) is that tram line 5 which runs near the hotel is pretty unreliable, but is the only way of accessing the hotel via public transport - I had problems on every day of my stay with either gaps in the service or trams having to be replaced by buses due to faulty power lines or signal problems.

The hotel was in the process of being renovated at the time of staying, which didn't help towards the overall atmosphere as it was the reception and bar area that were closed off. The room was comfortable and the reception and bar staff were friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was OK
The real downside was that housekeeping did a really poor job of making up the room after the first night - not even bothering to provide loo roll or replacement toiletries. I had to ask reception to fix, and it still took them over an hour to get it sorted. At no point was I offered anything more than a begrudging apology. Really poor service that let the hotel badly.

The hotel is actually made up of both the main building and a number of converted cottages which have been turned into ensuite rooms - I was staying in the latter, next door to the Mermaid Pub
As the hotel is the only one on the island they so have a monopoly on the accommodation (there is also self-catering cottages and a camp site, but they - along with the hotel - are all operated by the same company). This does show in the service with a very much that will do attitude. Staff were helpful without being overly friendly and the breakfast service was quite chaotic. The room was basic and a bit dated and the bed wasn't the most comfortable

Thin walls, housekeeping that barges into the room whilst you're still sleeping, a shower that can't decide if it wants to scald or freeze you and a management that thinks kicking hotel guests out of the hotel bar because they had booked in a private function is acceptable.
On the plus side the hotel is in a good location and some of the staff are very helpful, but that really doesn’t make up for the many failings of this awful hotel

The hotel is located right on the edge of the beach at the southern end of the town centre. Rooms are large with big windows for the views. Comfortable beds, great food and lots of facilities including a pool, multiple bars and restaurants and a spa.
The staff were outstanding, particular as I visited during the ramping up of measures to deal with the COVID-19 Pandemic. Staff were constantly updating guests on what was happening, including details on the building being locked down and guests being confined to the building. Despite all the disruption and worry that the pandemic was bringing the whole staff team remained professional and calm throughout.

A great hotel located in the centre of Narvik, a short walk from the train station and the centre of town.
The room was of a reasonable size with excellent views over the fjord and town. Breakfasts were good and plentiful and the bed was, as always with Scandinavian beds, very comfortable

Located just outside the centre of the city, close to a metro station. The room was quite small - but not unreasonably so. Breakfasts were good, but when the hotel was busy there was insufficient space.

Comfortable if very small room above a bar/restaurant in the Pantiles part of the town. Due to the age of the building there was no lift and access to my 2nd floor room was via quite a lot of steep and narrow stairs
The room was tiny with only just enough room for the bed, and no table, chair or workspace. Breakfasts were OK but quite expensive (no B&B available). Staff were friendly

Comfortable hotel located in the heart of the city centre opposite the Old Market and at the start of the old town area. The bed was very comfortable and the air conditioning managed to achieve the almost impossible of being quiet but very powerful so, despite the very hot temperatures, sleep was easy.
I visited just after the Covid-19 restrictions started to be removed, so rather than a buffet breakfast there was a limited waiter service, but the food was plentiful and good. The staff were all very friendly and helpful.

Located right on the harbour just off from the very centre of town and close to the station this hotel is in a great location. The room was quite small (a moderate double - but once the bed was in the room there wasn't much space for anything else!)
The staff were all very friendly and helpful, though they were clearly a little understaffed as things like plates ran out at breakfast on some mornings!

Another excellent Premier Inn, at the time of visiting it had been open for a little over 18 months, though most of that time it had been closed due to the Covid pandemic, so it still had that new hotel feel.
The staff were all very helpful and friendly, the breakfasts were of the usual Premier Inn standard, as was the room comfort and the bed.

My Review

The hotel is in a great location, transport wise - right next to a tramstop and only a 100m or so from the Hauptbahnhof. This of course means that the area itself is a bit les desirable, and it is a bit edgy at night, though once inside the hotel everything is fine. At the time of visiting the hotel had only just reopened following its closure for Covid-19, so the staff still weren't 100% perfect on everything, and Breakfasts had yet to be restored.
The room itself was small but very comoftable, if slightly on the warm side. Staff were all friendly and helpful, if slightly confused as to all the new rules for working in a Covid-secure environment. As my rate had included Breakfast I was refunded directly in cash on checkout so that I didn't have to put in a refund claim

Located at the bottom of the iconic Mermaid Street this lovely little B&B is located around parts of the old town walls. Due to the age of the building it isn't accessible, with lots of small steps even on the ground floor. The room I had was small but very comfortable with a decent sized bathroom
The staff couldn't have been any more friendly or helpful - everyone clearly wanted you to have a great stay. The breakfasts were excellent.

Very comfortable hotel located close to the centraal station. Very comfy beds, friendly and welcoming staff. At the time of visiting there was a heatwave across much of Western Europe, with temperatures well into the mid 30sC, thankfully the airconditioning was of a very high standard and I was able to sleep well at night with the room at a beautiful temperature.
I visited whilst Covid-19 precautions were still in place and the hotel had handled these well with a good breakfast - severed by the chef directly to you. Throughout the hotel there was lots of hand sanitiser and clear markings to enable social distancing.

Comfortable, if slightly souless hotel in the heart of mid-town, close to Times Square and a couple of Subway stations
I had a room on the 17th floor which had good views over this part of the city down to the Hudson river. The bed was very comfortable. Staff were friendly but you got the impression they were all just going through the motions - possibly due to the sheer size of the hotel, 30 odd floors each with 30 or so rooms meant mad scrums at breakfast and dinner added to which I only actually saw a handful of staff the entire time!

Comfortable hotel located right by the railway station (which is about a mile from the city centre.)
The room was comfortable, the food was of good quality and the staff who were there were all friendly and helpful - but it appeared that the hotel was being run on a very reduced number of staff as I only saw about three different people during my whole stay.

My Review

The hotel is in the almost perfect location, located within the building of the Hauptbahnhof with direct access to the station concourse and a couple of steps from the Cathedral. This does of course mean that all the rooms are within earshot of the Cathedral bells when they ring them at 7am on a Saturday morning (not that the hotel can do much about that - the thick double glazed windows did little to dampen the noise).
The staff were all friendly and helpful. At the time of visiting there was a revised Breakfast service in action due to Covid-19 restrictions, but the breakfasts were still plentiful and well managed. The room was a standard Ibis room, with a comfortable bed.

Comfortable rooms, friendly staff and an excellent breakfast - buffet style even with Covid-19 precautions in place.
The bed was comfy, the staff were friendly and helpful. The only downside to the hotel is that it's about a 10 minute walk to the centre of the city where the main attractions are, and about 20 minutes walk to the train station.

My Review

At the time of first visiting in September 2021 the hotel had only been open for a couple of days, so the service might not have been as polished as it would be once everyone has had a chance to settle in - but it did mean the hotel was spotlessly clean and everything felt very new and unused. When I went back in June 2022 everything was much smoother, and I was surprised to se that everything still felt very new and unused
The location is great for Ashford International station, but not much else as the town is a bit of a walk away. The breakfast was good, and appeared to have more staff than customers when I went down (September 2021), in June 2022 the breakfast room was much busier particularly on the Sunday morning and despite the size it was a bit of a hunt to find a table - though the staff were quickly cleaning them as people left, so I didn't have to wait long.

A large beach front hotel located about a kilometer from the old town and most of the major attractions in Rhodes
The room was large, but despite being booked as a double was a twin with quite narrow single beds. All rooms have a balcony - mine did have a sea view, though partially obscured by the shape of the building. The hotel was half board and the food was good without being remarkable. Staff were all very friendly and helpful.

A large and slightly souless hotel located at the top of a hill coming up from the main station. Room was of a reasonable size and the bed was comfortable, but the hotel was very quiet.
The few staff that were around were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was an overly elaborate Covid-secure affair with everything on clingfilm wrapped plates, but you still had to be served by the chef rather than helping yourself.

I had a large room, overlooking the Saar River. The room was comfortable with the bed particularly so.
Staff were warm and friendly, breakfast was another weird Covid-Secure hybrid with a form having to be completed the day beforehand (almost like a room service breakfast), but then everything delivered to you at a table in the restaurant.

The room was comfortable, and you can't fault the location for convenience being within the terminal building at Arlanda. However, because the rooms overlook the inside of the terminal building they look out onto a space that's always brightly lit and therefore would require blackout blinds or curtains that overlapped a lot to avoid light pouring into the room, and the curtains just aren't up to the job
The staff were all friendly, which made up a bit for the slightly souless atmosphere in the hotel (though that could also be because the whole airport was quiet due to Covid-19)

For all other elements of a Premier Inn hotel this was a good example with comfortable beds, friendly staff, good breakfasts and a reasonable sized room.
The only problem was with the location of my room - right above the main entrance with the motors for the automatic doors directly under my bed, which meant I only got disturbed sleep on each night and no hope of sleeping in beyond about 7am as the only route to breakfast made people walk past, and open, the inner doors where the motor was right under my bed!

The hotel 'Upgraded' me from a Classic King room to a deluxe twin, failing to take account of the fact that someone travelling by themselves probably wanted a big bed rather than a small single. As I didn't check in until midnight it was too late to get anything changed as I just wanted to sleep
Staff were friendly enough, but there was only lip service apologies for the effective downgrade in the room. Breakfast was OK.

I've stayed in this hotel before for work, before the times of Covid, and always thought it was a good Mercure hotel. Sadly the cutbacks the hotel have made following Covid have hurt the hotel. It looks shabbier than it did before and whilst the staff are still friendly and welcoming it's clear they are working in more difficult decisions due to the changes to the layout of the reception (moved into the bar) and the reduced services they now offer - for no change in prices charged
Food was good, without being anything memorable, the room was advertised as a double, but turned out to be two twins pushed together that had to be pushed back together each morning as they slowly drifted apart overnight

My Review

Located on the site of one of the oldest bath houses in the spa city the hotel is one of the most important in the city, which makes it all the stranger that it's a Radisson Blu middle of the road chain hotel. The room was large and comfortable and clearly converted from two much smaller rooms some time in the past.
The main issue was the lack of staff - just one person to cover reception on a Sunday morning when most of the hotel wanted to checkout (in the end I just used the self-service checkout, which is what I assume the hotel is trying to get people to do so they can reduce staffing further.) Those staff that I did interact with were friendly and helpful, but obviously overworked.

A typical resort park in Costa Teguise with a selection of suites and bungalows arranged around the pool and bar, with a restaurant and activity centre.
The room was comfortable, with decent temperature control. Staff were friendly and helpful - particularly those in the restaurant. Food was of a high standard, despite all being buffet style

The tallest, and ugliest, hotel in East Berlin. Once inside, and on an upper floor, the views over the city are excellent. Rooms are narrow and quite small, but the beds are comfortable.
Staff were friendly and helpful, the breakfast buffet was large and well stocked.

The usual high quality from Premier Inn, despite visiting at a time when restrictions were still in place due to Covid. Staff were all friendly and welcoming
Room was comfortable and quite large for a Premier Inn, breakfast was in the attached Table Table restaurant. The hotel is in a great location, about 10 minutes walk from the centre of town but right by the river and opposite the train station

A classic America hotel located in the centre of the city just a short walk from the trams and buses. The room was massive with an equally large, and very comfortable bed and a bathroom that you could fit another small bedroom into.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Breakfasts were good if slightly expensive.

A pretty standard Ibis located in the centre of Carlisle, on the main road for night time entertainment with lots of the bars and clubs in the immediate area - but with the windows closed it wasn't possible to hear anything. The room was comfortable

Comfortable hotel with a slightly weird tube theme to the rooms - the carpets around the bed are designed to look like a tube platform complete with Mind the Gap and a yellow line.
Staff were friendly and helpful and breakfasts were OK. The only slight let down was the weak shower that looked like it should be good but underwhelmed.

On the positive side the staff were friendly and welcoming, the breakfasts were good and the room was comfortable. However, fidning that the sheets had a dirty stain on them just before going to bed was a massive negative mark against the hotel
Conveniently located for Maidstone West station and the bottom end of the city centre, though up quite a steep hill from the town centre and river.

Hotel was located just away from the city centre, about a 10 minute walk from the heart of the old town and about 5 minutes by bus (uphill all the way) from the station. The room I was given had been an accessible room, but it looked like a lot of the accessible facilities has been ripped out, except for the shower head which was still positioned very low, consequently getting the bathroom soaked during showering (there was also no curtain or screen)
Staff were friendly and welcoming and breakfast was good.

The Majestic Hotel and Spa is clearly a Grand Victorian spa hotel, though it's been fully refurbished with the rooms of a high standard, however marks off for doing the cheat of putting two twin beds together with a single king-sized sheet over them and calling it a kingsized bed.
Breakfast was good, albeit very busy. Staff were friendly and helpful.

A quirky and slightly odd hotel close to the Hauptbahnhof. Rooms include a free mini-bar and the Breakfast is a full menu that's included in the room rate
As I had a very late arrival I only interacted with one member of staff, but he was very helpful and friendly. The room was spacious, if slightly weirdly designed and the bed was very comfortable. The only negative I had was that the shower gel and shampoo were slightly weird and not entirely pleasant fragrances (lemon and honey)

A great hotel located on the opposite bank of the Main from the centre of town, a short walk from a tram stop and only about 10 minutes walk via the Alte Brücke from the centre of town. Hotel is also a short distance for the start of the gardens that lead up to the Fortress.
At the time of visiting the hotel lobby and bar was undergoing rennovations, so there were limited facilities, but the staff all tried to make sure it didn't impact the service they were delivering. My room was large with a very comfortable bed and a very good shower.

My Review

Another quirky hotel split into two different and not linked at all buildings
The bed wasn't quite as comfortable as the other 25h I'd stayed in a couple of days previously, but it was still good enough to get a reasonable nights sleep. Breakfast was just a buffet, but of a high standard. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and incredibly apologetic when the WiFi went down across the hotel for the second evening I was there.

A great hotel located in the centre of Woking a couple of minutes walk from the station and the main shops and restaurants, as well as only a couple of minutes from The Lightbox museum.

My Review

Slightly odd resort that looks like it may previously have been two separate resorts knocked together (two very different sets of pools, one very large hotel block, 2 apartment blocks and a random space in the apartment area that looks like it would once have been a reception!)
Staff were all very friendly and helpful and the room was very comfortable and clean. The only real downside was that the food was a little bland, but when you're catering for the numbers in resort it's not surprising

My Review

On the positive side the local Cape Verdian staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful and nothing was too much bother. Most of the rest of the staff were pretty good, but a handful of European staff on the Reception/Front of House team let everyone down by being needlessly rude, arrogant and deeply unpleasant. There was a major issue with my room and their response was pretty much tough, deal with it.
Food was mediocre to good. Facilities were good, though in areas there were clear cost cutting measures in place with maintenance not a high priority. All in all this has the potential to be a great place, but it's badly let down by several members of the reception team and penny pinching on the maintenance

Despite being supposedly recently refurbished the hotel rooms appeared to be quite dated with tired looking furniture. The whole complex was massive, but there didn't appear to be many staff and I only interacted with two team members the entire time I was there
Food and drink wasn't included in the room rate as was incredibly expensive, thankfully there was a 24/7 CVS located next door to the hotel that covered for most things!

The hotel is very conveniently located, just yards from New Place and the very centre of Stratford-upon-Avon. The building is Tudor in it's origins so the building is a bit uneven with floors that creak and virtually no level surfaces. The rooms are a little dated and in need of refurbishment
The few staff that were around were friendly and helpful - but it was clear that the hotel was understaffed.

I'd stayed here in 2008 when it was a Rica hotel before they were taken over by Scandic. When I stayed before it was a 4 star hotel, now it's a 3 star and it is a bit clear in places why as the staffing appeared to be quite limited and it didn't look like the room had been refurbished in the 15 years since I'd last stayed there.
The staff that were there were all very friendly and helpful and breakfast was excellent.

Staff were friendly and welcoming and the breakfasts were good.

Large airport hotel located about 10-15 minutes walk from the terminal building. The room was very large, as was the bed though not the most comfortable

An OK hotel, located right by Greenwich DLR and Railway station and about a five minute walk from most of the main sights in town.

A comfortable hotel located about 30 minutes from the centre of Zurich, but easily accessible with a good train/tram connection. The whole area the hotel is located in is clearly a new development and so it does appear to be a bit of a desert at the moment (unless you count the Burger King and IKEA across the road).
Staff were friendly and helpful, breakfast was good but had clearly just been hit by a large number of people as there were lots of dirty tables and not much food when I first went in. Only real issue was with the design of the door to the room which let a lot of light from the corridor in - frosted glass still lets light in!

My Review

A very comfortable hotel located right in the centre of the city, with views from my room up to the castle and along the main street. The hotel is almost totally self service with an automated check-in and luggage lockers in a separate part of the building that you can leave luggage in after you checkout
I only interacted with one member of staff the entire time I was there, who was the person working in the breakfast room. Breakfasts were good with a reasonable choice replenished regularly

My Review

A Georgian Pub with rooms above. Because of the age of the building none of the floors are level, there's lots of small sets of steps and the floorboards creak, but that’s part of the charm of the hotel. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and the addition of really powerful air conditioning on a very hot weekend made for some really good sleep
Breakfasts, served in the pub, were of a high standard

My Review

The hotel is in a great location, but as the same company appears to own all the hotels in Old Amersham the lack of competition shows. Their market, at least at the weekends, is clearly wedding parties so anyone not in those groups is overlooked - not helped by the fact they appear to be suffering from staffing shortages, so service was slow at times - particularly at breakfast
The room was quite cramped, though the aircon was good. The matress was pretty lumpy and sagged down in the middle making for not a great nights sleep. Just one plug socket in the entire room and wifi that may actually date from the original Georgian construction of the hotel.

The hotel is located some way out of the town, at the main junction of the Motorway - next to a retail park, supermarket and leisure centre, but it's also at the Coachway so on Weekdays and Saturdays has decent bus connections back down into High Wycombe
The staff were all very friendly and helpful, rooms were very comfortable with excellent air conditioning. Breakfasts were good.

My Review

This should have been a good hotel, but due to major electrical problems with the air conditioning and then in general meant I got virtually no sleep on one night. Despite receiption knowing of the issues (given I was at the desk at 01:30 and 03:00 raising the issue) they tried to play it off as nothing much and didn't accept that they had failed in their basic job as a hotel as a place to sleep. The hotel was only willing to offer a free drink as a gesture of goodwill.
The staff on duty overnight went out of their way to be helpful, but the day reception staff were disinterested and a little uncaring. Breakfasts were good, but they didn't really make up for an overall pretty awful stay.

Hotel is located right by Delft Station, and only a few minutes walk from the centre of the old town. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly
Breakfasts were of a high standard. The room was a reasonable size, with an excellent shower. The bed wasn't the best with a pretty uncomfortable mattress and ineffective air-conditioning.

My Review

The hotel is located in the heart of the old city, close to the Cathedral and town hall. It clearly started life as a different chain and has been retrofitted to be a Premier Inn, consequently in places it looks a little weird if you're used to staying in the UK rooms.
Staff were all friendly and welcoming, breakfast was good - though only one working coffee machine meant the queues for caffiene in the morning were massive. The air conditioning wasn't up to the job of 30C during the day and 18C at night and struggled to do anything other than make quite a lot of noise

Loacted in a former palace building in the old town the hotel has clearly been fully rebuilt inside as the outer walls are constrasted by concrete within the rooms. The room was spacious and very comfortable
Staff were all very friendly and helpful, breakfasts were in the attached restaurant, which meant in the morning you could have it in the square outside whilst it was still quiet before all the day trippers arrived.

The hotel is located just behind the National Palace of Culture, close to a metro station so its only a couple of minutes by metro to the very centre of the city. At the time of visiting the hotel was almost at the end of a major renovation which meant that not everything was operating completely normally, you had to get to the restaurant for breakfast via two fire escapes!
The staff were all very friendly and helpful, the room was very comfortable and from the 8th floor had good views over the city. The bed was comfortable. Breakfasts were of a high quality with plenty of choice

The hotel was looking a little tired, and getting there is a bit of a pain, but at 3am after your flight has just been cancelled anywhere with a warm comfortable, and available, bed is worth it's weight in gold.
The handful of staff I interacted with were all really helpful and friendly, particularly the guy working reception at 3am.

Located right in the heart of the old town of Segovia about 5 minutes to both the Aqueduct and the Cathedral and about 15 from the Alcázar. The room was small and the bed wasn't the most comfortable (not helped by being two singles pushed together)
Staff were all very friendly and helpful and the breakfast were reasonable if not particularly extravagant. The hotels hidden feature of a rooftop garden from where there are stunning views over the whole of central Segovia is a big draw to staying here.
