It's called a water world - it's actually one big fun-filled pool

Advantages: Great half day trip
Disadvantages: busy on hot days

...reef is a pleasant enough place to visit for a half day visit, you could combine your trip with a visit to The Discovery Centre which is opposite Coral Reef and another good half day destination. Coral Reef is easily found from junction 3 of the M3 and is situated in a forest setting. Go there to have fun rather than to have a "proper" swim.

Review of Coral Reef Water World, Bracknell

The Invergarry Hotel near Loch Ness

Advantages: Lovely location, good food
Disadvantages: Restuarant quite expensive and very busy

...The Invergarry Hotel lies beside the A87 which is often referred to as "The road to the Isles". It lies within Glen Garry and the River Garry runs alongside the A87 on the opposite side of the road. All of the rooms at the front of the hotel have wonderful views overlooking the river, although it could be argued that the rooms at the back are quieter. Whilst this argument is doubtless true all of the windows are double glazed and therefore I would personally request a room at the front. I haven't actually stayed here so I cannot comment on the accommodation side although from the outside the residential areas look very nice and I have peered through the windows into the residents bar on numerous occasions. I have however visited the public bar here many times and I have also eaten in the restaurant. The public bar is very cosy...

The wonderful world of water.

Advantages: pretty much free
Disadvantages: possible hint of weasel urine

...?ll forgive you an occasional foray into the sanitised world of Evian, but anywhere else in the country you have no excuse. The water you drink distils and epitomises the place you live in. Remember that....

Review of Tap Water

Water Splashing Day Out!

Advantages: Plenty of water slides. Jacuzzi. Three pools. Great for all the family. Child friendly. Kiddies pool and play area.
Disadvantages: You pay for children depending on their height, if your child is tall you will pay adult prices.

...On holiday in Spain this year we decided to visit Waterworld. We were lucky in the fact that this water themepark was only about a 15 minute walk from our appartment. A bus was also provided, free of charge from the main bus terminal, which was about a two minute walk from our appartment. As you walked around Lloret De mar (which is where we were staying) if you looked in the direction of waterworld, you could see the water slides in the distance, appearing above and inbetween the trees. We decided as soon as we got there that we would go and so we booked through our rep and went. it just happened to be the hottest day of our holiday as well and so we all caught sun burnt! ********************WHERE IS IT******************* Waterworld is situated set back from the main road into Lloret De Mar, in Spain. The rides can be...

Review of Water World (Spain)

Blue Square Hotel- Apparently near, yet so far.

Advantages: Lovely bedrooms, large shower, bar staff friendly, luggage room to leave bags.
Disadvantages: Too far from city centre, transport costs to hotel very dear, area undesirable.

..., new coffee and tea sachets and crisp new towels. This hotel cannot be faulted for 'small gestures'- they do have some nice touches that will make you feel special. The room had a double bed which was incredibly comfortable and a flatscreen television. There is a small kettle which holds enough water for two cups and there is a very good air-con system which is very quick to get the temperature down. The bathroom is a good size and has luxurious fittings- the shower is very big and I was pleased it was not a 'wet room' type bathroom as many in Europe are. The bar in reception is a bit too open-plan and is not particularly romantic or ambient, although we saw a few businessmen on our trip so it could be that this hotel caters towards this market. The men behind the bar were so polite and friendly and really made us welcome, the people behind...

Review of Blue Square Hotel, Amsterdam

One of the world's best hotels - in Delhi!

Advantages: A landmark hotel
Disadvantages: It's a long way from home

...Before we start, a warning. This is a long review - you might want to go and get a cup of tea and a couple of biscuits before you start reading. I got a bit carried away. Are we ready? OK, let's go and visit one of the world's classic hotels. Background to our visit ******************* Back in February I placed a booking with Exodus (an 'adventure travel' company) for a trip to Ladakh in the Indian Himalayas with a stay in Delhi at either end of visit. I'd rejected the flight inclusive option (because it used Gulf Air) and splashed out many years worth of Virgin Flying Club 'miles' on two economy tickets for my husband and myself. I love Delhi and I wanted some extra time to see a couple of the museums and monuments so I booked the flights a day early on the way out and a day late on the way back. Consequently I needed to find...

Review of Imperial Hotel, New Delhi

Modern Hotel with Old World Service

Advantages: Wonderful Hotel and Food/Service; close to trains and busses, smoking rooms available
Disadvantages: Difficult to find from Airport

...INTRODUCTION We stayed at the Villa Rica Lisboa Hotel in Portugal about 2 weeks ago. It is a lovely, modern hotel near the center of busy Lisbon (if you can find a real center in that large, sprawling city!). Finding the hotel was a little difficult at night. We had asked directions from the Car Rental agency, but also had to ask from several pedestrians. The one who gave us the best and final directions was a young man who seemed to be a bit drunk or stoned (!). LOL But once we located it, it wasn't difficult to find again. But once we found it, we discovered that we were only around the corner from the underground train station..which is very cheap and very efficient. PARKING Luckily there is a free, very clean and well-lighted underground parking structure, which you enter directly next to the front door of the hotel. They...

Review of Villa Rica Hotel, Lisbon

A decent hotel near Termini

Advantages: Clean, close to transportation
Disadvantages: No breakfast included in our package

...needed: a double bed, a little TV on a desk with a few English channels (BBC, CNN etc) and a small safe where we could lock up our valuables. The floor was tiled and the walls had been painted in a yellowish color. This did brighten up the room as it looked somewhat gloomy with the dark furniture. The bathroom was bigger than expected and was nice and light - with light tiles and natural light coming in from a window. There was a bath (with a shower option using a shower curtain), toilet, bidet and a sink. Together with the usual soap, shampoo and shower cap. And there was also a hair dryer on the wall. Tip: If you like hot showers, let someone else shower before you! The water took a while to heat up :-) According to the information in the hotel it was possible to get access to wireless internet connection but I didn't bring along my...

Review of Bettoja Nord Hotel, Rome

A Contemporary Hotel Near to a Beautiful Monastery

Advantages: Well situated - close to famous attraction and good transport links
Disadvantages: A bit pricey

...Jeronimos 8 is one of the most contemporary hotels I have come across in the city of Lisbon, Portugal. It has a real 'designer' feel to the establishment and makes a refreshing change from the heavy wood furniture and long draped curtains that you come across quite a lot in Portugal. The hotel is well connected by tram, bus and train to the city centre. To save on costs whilst travelling to and from the hotel I suggest you purchase a Sete Colinas travel card from the nearest kiosk or newsagents. Location wise it is in a great situation - very near to some of the favourite and most famous attractions. For example: my favourite and one of Lisbon's most beautiful Manueline pieces of architecture - Jeronimos Monastery is only 200 metres from the hotel. Torre de Belem and the Monument of the Discoveries are a walk away at 1.5 kilometres...

We choice this hotel cause it was near my granmom's and at that night we where going there my friend and his band was playing there. And I dont speak just normal friend, just one famous Finnish singer who I got privilege to know. ****************************************************************** **** LOCATION: I have drive many time past this hotel on my way to my granmom.

Actually Hotel is locate by the lake Peruvesi ( Peruvesi is 10 km long and 2km leight and it's deapest part is 40m. There is few smaller islands in lake Peruvesi and sandy beaches are good for childrens.) along the highway number 5...
