Le coco Hotel

Advantages: Good Food
Disadvantages: Large and shabby

...Mauritius has always sounded like and advertised as the dream tropical island and when you book with your travel agent or on the web you are driven by the white beaches, luxury hotels and the vision of a tropical island. The le Coco Beach hotel is situated on its own white beach perfectly clean and manicured each morning. The hotel is only a 3 star hotel and its fair to say, showing its age. We had a room overlooking the beach it was clean and the sheets and towels were changed each day. the bathroom was a big dissapointment mold on the tiles and fitting falling off. The hotel did do there bestto rectify the problems however it did take the edge off the excellent servic of the staff. We were going to upgrade to a superior bungalow, but overall the room with its view was the better option. our package was all...

BW Le PHOEBUS - A Hotel Fit For The Gods

Advantages: Location, facilities, pretty much everything
Disadvantages: Rooms aren't huge

...While I was planning a trip to the Languedoc region of France last September, I searched for a suitable hotel. Somewhere where we could relax for a couple of days in nice surroundings and still have plenty to do. Near the beach, but also close to some historic sites if we chose to visit. In the BEST WESTERN Le PHOEBUS, I found exactly what I was looking for. The hotel is situated on the edge of the ancient village of GRUISSAN, between the new development of Gruissan-Plage and the lagoon, just off the main Gruissan-Narbonne road - it's 10 minutes from Exit 37 on the A9 m/way. GRUISSAN is a picturesque, medieval village. Built in a circular fashion, the narrow, winding lanes lead up the hill to the 10th century castle. The village sits on a peninsula which juts out into the salt-water lagoon, whilst behind the village is...

Review of Best Western Hotel Le Phoebus

Le Meridien Hotel, St. Julian's - Malta

Advantages: Staff, Facilities, Location
Disadvantages: Lift speed.

...On my recent holiday to Malta i stayed in Le Meridien Hotel, located in Saint Julian's. I would not normally have stayed in a 5 star hotel, but I was lucky enough to win some money towards a holiday from the company that I work for. Obviously, with free money, you are going to push the boat out a bit, and I am glad we did!! Location/Area We arrived at the hotel in the dark, quite late on a Friday night. The taxi brought us round a few small streets and then up quite a steep hill, thus bringing us to the reception of the hotel. My first impression was that it was in quite a strange location, but this is because i had only just seen where we were, and also it was dark, so everything seems different. The doors to the reception are round the back of the hotel and on the ground level floor. The hotel itself is situated on top...

Total Lac of fun Mur-de-Bretagne

Advantages: Clean, wholesome and accommodating
Disadvantages: Wasps. And bees.

...Advantages: Clean, wholesome and accommodating Disadvantages: Wasps. And bees. Guerledan Lake at Mur-de-Bretagne - Brittany. Or Lac de Gueledan (Same place but in French) That French sure is tricky. We just returned from France after a not-so-gruelling two week stint in the heart of Brittany. Many things were done and many things seen but one of the best was this large man-made lake - the biggest, allegedly, in Europe. Humorously, it's owned by EDF, the electricity supplier. They also supply my electricity, so this computer is being powered partly by the lake I am writing about. Perhaps 'humorously' was either wishful thinking or exaggeration. Or just a lie. The lake is a big long affair and has the look of a a drowned valley, which it is. You always get suspicious when you see leafless trees sticking out of the lake...

Review of Mur de Bretagne

A year in Petit Bretagne

Advantages: Relaxing
Disadvantages: Rains a lot

...the extreme North West of France, Brittany is often thought of as a little nation state, all on its own, with its own unique culture and environment. Even the name Bretagne describes its connections with Blighty (Grande Bretagne). It was known in the time of the Celts as Armorica (?the land of the sea?) for good reason because the place abounds with myths and legends of towns and villages which have disappeared into the ferocious English Channel and it shares with Britain the love of Arthurian legend. The beaches of Brittany are beautifully clean and fresh, as is the water, although the majority are of rock and stone rather than sand and you will need to take sandals if you are visiting to protect your feet from cuts, as the dave27-ettes now know to their cost. The place is a favourite with English tourists and visit any seaside town in...

Review of Bretagne (France)

Kyriad Hotel, Magny-le-Hongre - Nothing bad but nothing special

Advantages: Clean, good shuttle bus service
Disadvantages: Not much to do, just a pit stop for Disney Land

...I stayed at this hotel in October 2007 and had a pleasant stay. The welcome area is clean and friendly, with a small bar and a shop near the check in desk. There's also a small toddlers indoor play area in this area. This is probably the nicest part of the complex, although it is pretty small. The corridors are quite dark and dull, but the rooms are decent and have traditional decor. I remember the beds being quite comfortable, which was nice after staying in an extremely uncomfortable Holiday Inn bed the night before. The outside is decorated nicely, with plants and flowers and is kept very tidy. However, the eating area was a disappointment and was basically a cafeteria. The food was quite nice and you could keep going up for more, but there was no atmosphere and it felt like everyone had been shoved in there not because they wanted to...

Le Spa, a day in Paradise

Advantages: Elegant, Beautiful and very relaxing
Disadvantages: The cost of the treatments can mount quickly.

...A couple of years ago, my parents were trying to decide what to get me for my birthday, and decide to treat me to a stay at Le Spa. My friend who lives in the area and is a member of Le Spa's Gym decided to spend the day having treatments with me. I was advised to arrive at the hotel at 9am to book in for my treatments whilst having a relaxing cup of tea. During which time, my luggage would be taken to my room and the booking in forms would be delivered to me during lunch. Cool, I thought no rushing around with checking in and booking treatments before everything was fully booked. I duly arrived at 9am, and headed for the entrance. The door was locked, with a note up saying Le Spa would be open at 10am. Intriguing seen as I was told to arrive at 9am. I had a look around for another entrance or someone to ask about the mix up. There...

Paradise at Le Coco Beach

Advantages: stunning location, on the beach, outstanding service
Disadvantages: too many people, but it is a popular hotel

...What a fantastic hotel. It's has a beach from location so it's just seconds away from the white sands and turquise seas. Simply breathtaking!!!! The hotel isnt cramed into a small area...it's set on a spacious estate, about 80 acres. There are coconut trees spread out around the area, and looks very tropical. For 3 star plus hotel, you dont get anything better than this in Mauritius. It has everything you need. You have the option to do either half board or all inclusive. In my experience, do the all inclusive. The food in the restaurants are deliciuos. The hotel has many facilties and is ideal if you have small children. And for those who love sports, Le Coco Beach is the place to be. Below are only some of the facilities you will find at the Le Coco Beach. The Facilities... * A main swimming pool, plus a children...

LE AVERAGE

Advantages: Good location
Disadvantages: Cack hotel

...When we recently had a team meeting in London, a friend of mine was given the task of arranging somewhere to eat and I was tasked with finding somewhere to sleep. This was good news because I got to choose a hotel that was convenient for me. Selfish, aren?t I? Oh well. WHY I CHOSE LE MERIDIEN RUSSELL Although I do occasionally venture out further, I tend to book hotels that are close to Euston or King?s Cross railway stations because this is where most of my team arrive by train and because all our company buildings are that side of town. The last time I was in town, I stayed in the Holiday Inn in Bloomsbury, which certainly isn?t bad after its refit, but I was unable to get seven rooms for the date I had in mind. Over on www.laterooms.com I spotted a discount in Le Meridien, Russell Square from £220 per night to £89. This...

Le coco Beach experience

Advantages: Great for kids, fantastic staff
Disadvantages: Not great for couples, a bit sore on the eyes

...My mother and me visited Le Coco Beach for a five day holiday. After about an hours transfer from the airport we arrived on the East coast of the island at Le Coco beach hotel where our inital intake was of disappointment because we were hoping for a more authentic Mauritian experience, and arrived at a hotel that reminded us much of disneyland with its over the top colours and patterns you really want to wear sunglasses all the time! If allergic to bright fake atmospheres this hotels is not for you! Although on that note it looks great for kids. We chose the standard rooms, which have airconditioning ( a blessing in the heat), television and en Suite bathroom. The rooms were brightly coloured with palm trees and colourful mirrors and a great view off the balcony which overlooked the swimming pool and beautiful gardens. The rooms...
