Amari Atrium Bangkok

Advantages: Lovely hotel, excellent food and close to city centre
Disadvantages: None

...We had booked a Superior Deluxe room at the Amari Atrium in Bangkok for 4 days in September to finish off our honeymoon. The hotel is very grand and very well decorated. Check in took no time at all and we were taken straight up to our room on the 9th Floor. The room was very spacious, the bed was huge and was decorated with rose petals, there was also a lovely honeymoon cake on arrival. The bedroom has a lovely view which backed out to the water and could see for miles. The bathroom was fab a nice spacious bath with overhead shower and the water was nice and hot with plenty of power. Each room has a safe which came in very handy for keeping passports and cash. The food at the restaurant was fantastic with both a buffet or al la carte available both of which was excellent quality. There was also an italian restaurant...

Review of Amari Atrium Hotel, Bangkok

Top class hotel with a stunning setting

Advantages: Beautiful location, great food, relaxed atmosphere
Disadvantages: Need to ensure you get a Danube room, although this can be pricy

...The Atrium Sofitel is one of the premier hotels in Budapest. It may lack the stylish history of the Gelert, and it may have been upstaged recently by its neighbour, the Four Seasons, it nonetheless is worthy of consideration for a stay, whether for business or for pleasure, in this charming central European capital city. The hotel is situated on Roosevelt Ter, at the Buda end of the Chain Bridge. The Chain Bridge was the first permanent bridge across the Danube linking the cities of Buda and Pest. It was designed by a Scotsman, William Clark, and is a larger, grander version of the bridge he designed over the Thames at Marlow. The hotel's name derives from the stunning atrium which greets you on arrival. From the roof of the atrium hangs a model of an old wooden aeroplane. The rest of the atrium has a library theme, with one...

Review of Sofitel Atrium, Budapest

STYLISH SEXY SETTING FOR MANCUNIAN MISCHIEF

Advantages: Modern, well equipped, stylish
Disadvantages: Self catering may be an issue for some

...It’s not often that I encounter a hotel that I absolutely love. Well, hold on to your knickers (or someone else’s if that makes you happy) because I’m about to blow you away (steady). The Atrium Central Apartments in Manchester are fantastic. I’ve stayed here a number of times over the last few months, because this place literally puts everywhere else to shame. The concept is original, the standard of facilities is superb – and there are some cunning offers around that make a visit here financially attractive. About The Atrium = The Atrium is a grade 2 listed Victorian building, situated on Princess Street, almost directly opposite Canal Street. The building was refurbished and opened as a four star hotel complex in August this year – so as you can probably imagine, everything is...

Review of The Atrium Apartments (Manchester)

The Pan Pacific Hotel, Singapore

Advantages: Nice food and delectable facilities
Disadvantages: none

...-day breakfast and light meals and The Atrium for pleasant tapas and beverages. I've been their guest before. Their service---excellent! The first thing when I arrived at their hotel, the attendants immediately greeted me with a smile and directed me to my room. Down at their restaurant (I tried Hai Tien Lo), the service crew was very amicable and friendly. When I did not understand a dish, they will kindly explain what's going on, with a bright smile. That really brightens up my day!...

Relax at Princes Square, Glasgow

Advantages: Relaxed, spacious, full day out, unique
Disadvantages: Small, expensive shops

...is an atrium from the lower ground floor to the glass domed roof, which allows excellent opportunities for people watching. This feature also makes it easy to find your way to your stores, as all stores are visible from this atrium. Stores currently within the centre include Calvin Klein underwear, Fifi & Ally, French Connection, Lacoste, Oasis, Reiss, Ted Baker, Arran Aromatics, Jo Malone and Dwell. The centre is also well served by cafes, and restuarants, including Starbucks, Darcys, Barca, Zizzi and November, which also doubles as a nightclub. All in, there are around 45 retail units, cafes, and restuarants. Vivienne Westwood has also just opened her first Scottish store in the Princes Square. The basement area has a performance space that is widely used for concerts at Christmas time, and the wonderful accoustics of this...

Review of Princes Square (Shopping Centre)

Nice modern hotel with good location

Advantages: The easy internet connection, room was very nice
Disadvantages: Had to walk for a while to get to the room

...This review of the hotel will be a bit limited as I only stayed there for one night in April 2007. I arrived late in the evening and left early in the morning so this is merely my impression of the room and check in/check out. I went to Gothenburg on a short company trip in April 2007. I took a taxi from the airport to the hotel. The taxis seem to operate on fixed prizes and I think I paid about 320 SEK (about 47 $) for the drive. At least it contained some excitement as the driver came up to 160 km/h (about 100 mph) on the highway into town?in a Volvo of course. The check in was fast and then I went looking for my room?257 I think it was. To avoid strangers getting in one must use the room key to open the elevator. The rooms are spread out in a big square with an atrium in the middle. My room was of course located on the far side...

Review of Radisson SAS Scandinavia Hotel, Gothenburg

Switzerland's Only Museum for Potheads

Advantages: If you like pots, it's the best place in Switzerland
Disadvantages: If you don't like pots and glass, this probably isn't for you

...Century and was always intended to be a glass and ceramics museum. Stepping into the building you walk into a giant atrium that stretches up to the ceiling. It's a spectacular building with a gallery around the upper floor from which you can look down into the atrium. There's an information desk on the left hand side as you enter and a small stall selling gifts and memorabilia at the far end. The Collection Regrettably we had to take some of the rooms at great speed and this meant we didn't have time to stop and translate all the labels but we were determined to get a quick look at everything. My husband is particularly interested in faience, majolica and tin-glazed ceramics so the first couple of rooms of very early work stopped him in his tracks. In each room we had a quick scout around before picking one or two pieces...

Review of Ariana Museum, Geneva

Champagne lifestyle on lemonade money

Advantages: Fabulous atrium setting
Disadvantages: During busy times, only guests allowed in Piano Bar

...Many a time have I met up here with friends after most other restaurants and bars have closed their doors. The Landmark hotel is located on the Marylebone Road and adjacent to Marylebone station. Although on a main road, it is pretty easy to park in most of the side streets late in the evening and at the weekend. The Winter Garden is a huge atrium/piano bar in the centre of the Landmark hotel. The building used to have a courtyard, but was converted with a glass roof at some point and became an atrium. With the stars above you and a view of the windows of some of the rooms it has a fabulous inside-out feel, which I just adore. Although they stop serving dinner at 11.30, you can usually still get small things after this time such as scrambled egg and smoked salmon as well as tea and coffee. Price wise, although by no means...

Review of Landmark London, London

Gaylord Palms. No, that's really it's name...

Advantages: Huge. Plush. Great food, very friendly staff, fab location, choice of facilities.
Disadvantages: Huge. Contrived and over the top. Gauche and characterless

...I visited this hotel in Orlando, Florida for a convention in March 2006, and was blown over by the place. Whether it was the sheer (vast) size of the hotel, the replica everglades in the atrium (complete with alligators!), or the fabulous food and drink on offer that kept me doing moped impressions all week (but, but, but, but...) I'm not sure. Despite the size and contrived nature of the place I couldn't help but love every second of it. Service was fantastic - as was the food, and there was more than enough to keep guests occupied with a very wide range of activities and ways to relax on offer. I'd recommend it to any visitor to the area, the prices are relatively economical and it's definitely 'an experience'. The gaylord palms is located a 20 minute taxi ride from Orlando international airport, only a couple of minutes away...

Review of Gaylord Palms Resort & Convetion Center Orlando

The best hotel/attraction in Dubai

Advantages: Exclusive, brilliant, luxurious, great service
Disadvantages: very expensive

...'s biggest engineering feat. The island on which the Burj Al Arab rests on consists of 70,000 cubic metres of concrete, which in simple terms converts to 70 million litres. Also in the completion process of the artificial island 9,000 tons of steel was used. Inside the Burj Al Arab there is an atrium, which is 180 metres (590 ft) tall. With that feat achieved the atrium within the Burj Al Arab became the world's tallest. Due to the sheer size of the atrium, the building had to be cooled by 1 degree over 6 months to prevent large amounts of condensation to form. Or in other words to prevent the formation of a possible rain cloud due to the high humidity. There was some controversy over the birds-eye view of the Burj Al Arab. Some Arabians complained that the overhead view of the Burj Al Arab looked rather like or symbolized the 'Cross'. They...
