the best available double room when we got to the hotel.
The hotel that we had booked was the four star 'Jolly Carlton'. I had a look on the internet and it seemed wonderful.
We were told that check in wasn't until 2pm, but when we arrived in Amsterdam in the morning, we though that we would go to the hotel to see if we could leave our luggage there so we didn't have to drag it around the city until 2pm.
The hotel is about a 15 minute walk from the central station, which we managed no problem, even with our luggage. If you don't want to walk then there are also several trams you can take, either from the central station or from the centre of the town, though it really isn't that far and it is a fairly flat road all the way, and it means you can window shop as you walk! The hotel is very easy to find and is along one of the main roads. It ...
Advantages: Full service 5 star hotel. Good price point. Excellent service and luxury. Butler service. Disadvantages: No asian influence. More bar/restaurant choice elsewhere.
Not another Kuala Lumpur hotel review I hear you all groan??! But yes, there are still more reviews to come and today?s installment will share with you the highlights of the Ritz Carlton Kuala Lumpur.
For those who are unfamiliar, the Ritz Carlton chain is part of the Marriott group and provides seventy upscale luxury properties over the world. The chain is arguably one of the west?s finest hotel chains with it?s closest rival in Canada?s Four Seasons chain.

Booking
I booked my one night stay at the hotel over the telephone. The reservations agent was most helpful and took all my details. She provided full details about the property and all the arrival information to ensure I could find the property.
She also sent over an e ...
Advantages: Opulent, near the Guggenheim, best in town Disadvantages: only that there's not more reason to go more often
The first time I stayed at the Carlton it was entirely accidental. I had flown from Madrid to Bilbao with a Spanish colleague probably 10 years ago and our flight was so late that the hotel where we had bookings had given our rooms away to someone else. It was late, we were tired and grouchy and they offered to find us 2 rooms somewhere else. The Carlton - being the best (and most expensive) hotel in town - had two rooms. We rolled up in the wee small hours of the morning, paid an arm, a leg and a few other body parts and spent no more than about 6 hours in our rooms before heading off in the morning.
HOWEVER, the Carlton was so beautiful and the rooms so lovely that I vowed that one-day I'd go back and that's exactly what I did.

Manufacturer's product description
This is the autobiography of Carlton Leach a man to be reckoned with. He has earned himself respect throughout the deadly underworld he occupies. Make a friend of Carlton and you have an ally for life; cross him at your peril. For 20 years he has ranked among the toughest of Britain's brawn brigade. He was a key member of the dreaded Essex Boys gang which ran riot in the eighties and the nineties sparking a savage drugs war which saw three of his pals wiped out in the 1995 Range Rover massacre. Even now he knows that a bullet still has his name on it as a result of that simmering feud. Carlton was minder to boxer Nigel Benn throughout his glory years in the ring and tells of the blood sweat and tears of their special relationship. He also tells how he saved four of his firm from being tortured to death and their wives and daughters raped in front of them after a #10 million heroin consignment went missing.
