The Angel Hotel-Glittering Elegance

Advantages: Central location. Beautiful. Lavish. Great food
Disadvantages: Difficult to find any

...In August 1999 my daughter visited Cardiff and had a two night stay in The Angel Hotel,which is opposite Cardiff Castle and close to the city centre and the sparkling new Millennium Stadium.This hotel is steeped in history for its origins go back to 1666,which makes it the oldest and most famous hotel in town. The place has been skilfully modernised but managed to retain its gracious decor and furnishings to make for a very relaxing stay. The elegant,well equipped,en suite guest rooms have all the modern creature comforts : satellite TV,tea/coffee making facilities, a spacious bathroom,bath robes,bathroom slippers and there was even a bowl of fruit awaiting us. Thehotel has a marvellous foyer with a glittering Waterford chandelier.The elegant yet informal restaurant served up a super breakfast,there were also fresh fruits,seven choices...

Review of Angel Hotel, Cardiff

The Angel of the South

Advantages: Reasonably priced, centrally located, spacious rooms, historical interest
Disadvantages: None

...A few weeks ago I had to go to Bury St.Edmunds on business over a three day period. My first question on being told this news was "Where the bloody hell is Bury St. Edmunds?" Now, being a lad from Manchester I thought the only Bury was situated in Lancashire and was famous for its black puddings. However, as I gladly found out, there is a lovely market town in the heart of Suffolk (that's near Ipswich, Newmarket and Cambridge if you didn't know) which shares part of its name with its Lancashire counterpart and that is where I was to visit. ****** So having found out where you were going, why did you decide to stay at The Angel ****** The two main criteria which I tend to adopt when visiting a hotel for the first time is that it has to be a reasonable standard (at least 3 star) and that its location is central and easily...

Review of The Angel Hotel, Bury St. Edmunds

What a wonderful hotel

Advantages: Luxury, spotlessly clean, wonderful food
Disadvantages: Full price would be too expensive for me!

...As a lot of you will know my partner, Dave, now has to travel quite a bit as part of his job and I occasionally go along with him to keep him company, especially if he is going somewhere nice! Last week he had to travel to Cardiff and whilst looking for a suitable hotel I suddenly remembered that, as members of the Leisure Break Club, we would have the chance to take two nights for the price of one at The Angel Hotel owned by the Paramount Group. Leisure Break members always have the chance of this offer during January, February and March each year. I found the brochure and discovered that two nights for the two of us at The Angel Hotel Cardiff, which is a four star hotel, would cost £102 for bed, breakfast and evening meal! That works out at just £25.50 per person per night, needless to say we booked it! By the way when we...

Salou, Hotel Los Angeles

Advantages: Beach, Scenery, Monday Salou Market, Close to Barcelona, Cheap (there and presents to bring back)
Disadvantages: Some people - don't go if you don't like being pushed out of the way by locals!

...What a wonderful holiday! We searched the Internet for ages for information on our hotel prior to our holiday and found nothing - so here you are for anyone else interested in going! Hotel Los Angeles is 5 minutes from the beach, less than one minute to the bars (across the road!) and less than one minute to the restaurants and shops. It is very commercialised - you don't feel like you're seeing much of Spain, but the cheap prices for everything including our holiday and beautiful scenary and beaches make up for it. The hotel itself is a bit more than basic - it has 2 twins and either a single or bunks in the two rooms we had between the four of us (myself, my boyfriend and two friends, all early 20s). A bath and shower and TV (only CNN English speaking). The walls are paper thin. I would not recommend it as a hotel for light...

Review of Hotel Los Angeles, Salou

Angelic

Advantages: Very unique smell, long lasting, attractive packaging
Disadvantages: Initially very strong smelling, quite expensive

...I think I have heard more bad comments about this fragrance than any other. But, in the one week which I have been wearing it, I have had about 5 people stop me and ask me what kind of fragrance I am wearing. Angel isn't by all means a new fragrance. I was first introduced in 1993. Over 10 years old. Wow! If people are still wearing it, and talking about it, I definitely think that it has made an impression. I remember the first time ever smelling this fragrance. A friend of a friend was wearing it. My first impressions of it, were very strong, and a very unique but girly smelling fragrance. Extremely sweet smelling, and although this has a vanilla base, it isn't distinctive. Definitely not a fragrance that anyone and everyone could get away with buying. I was inspired to purchase this after recently receiving a free Thierry...

Angels and Demons

Advantages: Scenery of Rome, adventure
Disadvantages: None

...Angels and Demons is a 2009 movie based on the book of the same name by Dan Brown. It is the sequel to The Da Vinci Code. It again featured Tom Hanks as Robert Langdon. The story really focuses on the age old discussion of science versus the church and which is right and the scandals surrounding that quest for truth. A vial on antimatter is stolen from a Nuclear Research facility. At the same time, the world is mourning the loss of the Pope in the Vatican but all is not as it seems. It turns out that a secret organistaion, Illuminati might be behind his death as well as the abduction of the four most likely members to succeed him. Robert and the local police have to deal with all the secrets inside.

Angels And Demons

Advantages: Such a deep and in depth film
Disadvantages: Characters could be developed

...Angels and Demons was released May this year, I watched the Da Vinci Code and therefore felt it a responsibility to watch Angels and Demons. I thoroughly enjoyed the last movie and even though I personally view sequels to be less exciting than the first films, I went to see this on one of the first showings as I?m a sucker for any mystery thrillers and this was definately one which I had anticipated for some time. I took a girlfriend with me to see it and she had not previously seen the Da Vinci Code, nor was she entirely sure of the storyline behind Angels and Demons. I did think beforehand that this would put her at a disadvantage but she did insist that she was prepared for a bit of confusion and hard work to get through the film! How it started The film is based on a novel, also called Angels and Demons, by Dan Brown. Dan...

Review of Angels And Demons (DVD)

Angels and Demons

Advantages: Great cast, plot and true to the book
Disadvantages: None

...Angels and demons was a film that I had wanted to watch for a while, having been a great fan of the book, and the previous film The Da Vinci Code, I knew that this film would be both controversial yet at the same time very action packed and entertaining. Ron Howard is a great director he made the Da Vinci code live up to the book, and previous work in Apollo Thirteen has meant that he does no how to make a great film, with a great cast, great plot and great twist. Some would say that it?s easy to direct a film that was a book, however I think its even harder, You have to make the film suspenseful, people who read the book might no the outcome of the film, but if you put enough thought into it you can still make the intrigued. Plot: The film begins with the setting of a scientific experiment at the CERN centre in Switzerland, were...

Just an Angel

Advantages: Lasts for ages, pretty bottle design
Disadvantages: Quite expensive compared to other brands

...The fragrance "Angel" by Thierry Mugler is one of my many favourite perfumes. I treated myself to this from eBay about six months ago. I bought the 50ml (1.7 fl oz) bottle of perfume which was slightly used (only a smidgen less than a full bottle) but still boxed and in pristine condition for £30. I feel I got a real bargain. This sized bottle can be refilled either at an Angel Fragrance Source in Perfumeries or with an Angel refill bottle. Designer. Angel was introduced in 1993 by Thierry Mugler who is an instinctive designer whose range of fragrances took inspiration from comic books and outer space (hence some of the chosen names). The Bottle Itself. This elongated star shaped blue bottle is representative of Mugler's star which is finished by a shiny chrome top from where you press to spray this perfume onto yourself...
