Review of Fiat Grande Punto

The Grand is truly Grand

Advantages: A comfortable hotel and great restaurant
Disadvantages: Quite a walk up the hill or steps if escalator is not on

...I had a very hectic Christmas last year cooking for the family and generally doing far too much eating and drinking, so when it came to New Years Eve I was worn out, and to be quite honest just could not face another knees up to see the New Year in. My husband came up with the idea of going for a pint at tea time then back home for a night in front of the television. I agreed with that idea and then he piped up that we would have to go to bed early because we were getting up at six in the morning to drive to Scarborough and staying over night in the grand Hotel. Scarborough is about three and a half hours drive from where we live so we took a steady pace travelling over the moors keeping away from the motorway. It was great no stress and gorgeous scenery. There was quite a lot of snow on the moors but the roads were clear...

HOW GRAND IS THIS?

Advantages: Great to Look at. Good to Drive. A Quality Fiat.
Disadvantages: It May Well Depreciate More Than Most. Dealers

...WHAT IS IT? The aptly named 130bhp - 130 Mjet Sporting is the top of the range, three door "sporting" model in the new Fiat Grande Punto line up. Presumably Fiat added the title "Grande" in there to differentiate this from the last, rather less grand, Punto, the most basic model of which is still on sale. Grande in fact is actually a reference to the somewhat increased size of Fiat's latest super-mini offering. As with all of its' rivals in this sector, this could no longer be regarded as a small car. At 4030mm in length, the Grande Punto is precisely the same length as a new Peugeot 207 (probably its' closest competitor), and larger than a 1970 Austin Maxi, which in its day would have been regarded as a medium size car! The Fiat Grand Punto is very closely related to the new Vauxhall Corsa, they were co-developed by the same...

Grand facilities at the 'Grande'

Advantages: Lots of facilities and good choice of restaurants
Disadvantages: Rooms are more basic than you'd probably expected

...When I travelled to Jamaica with work we stayed in a few hotels in different locations and the one we stayed in whilst in Ocho Rios was this one. I have to admit that although I was looking forward to it I was a little disappointed to be moving from the hotel we had stayed at in Negril as it was a luxury hotel. So I was hoping that this one would be nice in its own way! The hotel: The Sunset Jamaica Grande is a hotel in the 'Sunset' group of hotels. The hotel is the largest of the three in the group and is rated as a 4 star standard. The hotel is made up of one main building and two tower blocks which are very easy to spot from a distance due to their bright yellow colour! Location: The hotel sits on the edge of the bay and in a prime position directly on the beach which is also private to hotel guests. The hotel is...

The MGM Grand is Grand Indeed!

Advantages: A fascinating place to visit and so much to see
Disadvantages: One can get worn out just trying to explore the whole hotel

...I stayed at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas for 3 nights and 4 days in August 2008 and can honestly say I had a great time. Please let me warn you that this is a fairly lengthy review of my experience. We got a taxi from the airport to the hotel which cost about $7 which worked out at less than £4 at the time. The first thing you notice about stepping out of the taxi and into the hotel is the fabulous air-conditioning. Vegas in August is VERY hot, well over 40o Centigrade! So it's really a relief to get out of that heat into the fabulously spacious lobby of the MGM and feel cooler straight away. On stepping inside the hotel (if you arrive by car) you are greeted by the large gold lion in the centre of the lobby in front of which it seems everyone who goes there for the first time rushes to have their photo taken in front of! As did I...

Central Trains

Advantages: Large network
Disadvantages: Sometimes a poor service

...Central Trains are their own worst enemy. They provide train services from Shrewsbury to Nottingham via Birmingham and also to East Anglia. They have provided train services for a long time. So how come they still have not got it right, yet? Central Trains is the cause of many phone calls to consumer radio programmes in the Midlands. And you often hear a spokesman or spokeswoman coming up with some explanation as to why they have managed to mess things up, again. One of the problems that face passengers of Central Trains is the fact that Central Trains seems unable to understand that, sometimes, people become ill and have to 'phone in sick. Of course, it would not be possible (sadly!) to go back to the days when spare staff would wait at strategic locations around the British Rail network, waiting to cover for colleagues who had...

Grand Union

Advantages: lovely staff, many facilities, spacious rooms
Disadvantages: expensive

...information visit: http://www.gh-union.si/ ***SUMMARY*** I would definitely recommend this hotel especially if you plan to go for a romantic holiday especially a short weekend. The prices are expensive and some may be put off by this but they are worth it for the excellent service, great facilities and central location. I know that when I go back to Slovenia I will stay in the Grand Union hotel again....

Grand, Just Grand

Advantages: An ultra modern hotel in an ultra modern city centre.
Disadvantages: None

...The Grand Hyatt Hotel is a relatively new addition to a modern development in the centre of Berlin. A low rise brick built (eight floors) multi-storey with a large neon sign at its summit, it is part of the lively environs of the Potsdam Platz. The approach to the main entrance once off the main road is somewhat unprepossessing but the streets around are girded by bistros (of which the hotel has its own), boutiques and a recently opened shopping arcade. The foyer is a cavernous place, dressed in brown and quite dimly lit. There is valet parking and a multi-story car park is near by. Registration was quick and efficient and there is a well equipped concierge desk on the same level. The hotel has a formal restaurant (the Vox) which provides an eclectic mix of inventive dishes from around the world. We chose from European themes...

Grand Not So

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Come away feeling very ill

...The Grand Hotel built in the late 1800s boosted to be the biggest man built building in Europe at that time. Constructed over 12 floors to represent 12 months of the year 52 chimneys, 365 rooms and 4 towers to mark the seasons of the year. In seeing the building and with great imagination you can see how fine and grand it was at that day of is peak. With great views from one side of the hotel overlooking the beach and harbour. 3 fine Ballrooms, 2 Restaurants, and a Grand Staircase guiding you up on to a balcony that looks down over the Grand Lounge. A hotel that's was at its finest in its day and that has been allowed to decay over the years with little money ploughed in and poorly maintained has become the largest free standing heap of rubble in Europe that should have been closed down some time ago. I began working for Butlins...
