Intercontinental Hotel, Nairobi

Advantages: fully equipped and comfortable
Disadvantages: expensive

...I can safely say this is the best hotel I have stayed in to date. Being delayed on a flight back to the UK does not put you in the best of moods but being put up here can certainly brighten your day. It's safe to say my view may be slightly biased in that i did not have to pay as the airline is obliged to put me up, but that does not change the fact that it is a fantastic hotel. Any place that serves free drinks on welcome to people who are not even paying must have a pretty good degree of class. But onto the review, the first impressions are very good. the lobby is clean and well designed to give i sense of open space and a welcoming atmosphere with the bar situated openly to the left and seating to the right. The staff at reception are extremely helpful and were quickly able to assign me a room and direct me there. The rooms are...

Review of InterContinental, Nairobi

Athenaeum Luxury at the InterContinental

Advantages: Helpful staff, lovely bedrooms, mini-bus service into the centre
Disadvantages: Not much in the local area, expensive, facilities not the best

...I?ve had the pleasure of staying here on two occasions recently, both two night stays, both for work purposes so of course I wasn't paying for the room! First impressions: The lobby is very wide and atrium style. As you walk across the marble floor there is a weird blue statue of a man and on your right escalators going downstairs. There are also a vast number of chairs and tables. To the left is the spa and a couple of boutique type stores. It does look more like the foyer of a prestigious office tower rather than a hotel though. It's a very large hotel with over five hundred guest bedrooms over nine floors. Checking In: On both occasions it was very easy to check in and out again, the receptionists were all efficient, helpful and spoke excellent English. The reception area was also very well staffed with four staff members around...

Best HOTEL in Cannes - Carlton Intercontinental

Advantages: This is one amazing hotel with everything you want in one of the greatest cities of France
Disadvantages: pretty much non-affordable for normal folks

...In september 2000 I was invited to the presentation of OPEL´s new car called Corsa. I was surprised that they did this presentation not in germany, but in Cannes, France. Furthermore I was really happy to see which hotel OPEL booked for the 3 day stay of their exclusive customers: The world famous Carlton Intercontinental Hotel at Cannes... Famous, some of you might ask and I say yes, famous it is. Most of you know that european film festival every year at Cannes. That hotel there is that historic building in which all the major actors, directors and plenty of wannabe´s are staying. The building itself is under a historic building law in france and so to uphold business in there the owners have to spent lots of money quite frequently to rebuild the beautiful historic outside of the hotel. It has 7 floors and on ground level...

Review of Carlton InterContinental, Cannes

Do you lead an Intercontinental life? IC Park Lane London

Advantages: Great location. Excellent value for London. Brilliant service. Luxurious rooms!
Disadvantages: Still expensive as it's London!

...So now that many of you will now have read one of my Asian hotel reviews I thought it was about time to write about some luxury closer to home. Something more of you can get to easier should my reviews be powerful enough to sway your decision! London has one of the largest selection of hotels in the world and choosing one is certainly very hit and miss. The so called luxury hotels in London can be just that or they can be very poor. Having experienced excellent service and properties in the Far East it was difficult to find a property to rival any of these closer to home until I discovered the Intercontinental Park Lane. After staying in a variety of different properties I finally discovered the IC and plumped up for a stay here. Since then I have not been to another hotel in the capital. It really has ticked all my boxes which is no...

Review of InterContinental, London

Intercontinental Title

Advantages: Design
Disadvantages: Price

...WWE Intercontinetal Championship Belt Review The Intercontinental title is one step behind the WWE title,the Wrestlers who wear this title are mostly on their way to the top of the buisness.The belt has a great history with the likes of The Rock,Triple H,Brock Lesnar and Stone Cold Steve Austin holding the title in the past. As you can see Ciao does not have a picture of the title above you can find a picture on Google Images by typing up WWE Vivid Imaginations Intercontinental Championship. The belt is made from plastic just like all the other Vivid Imaginations WWE titles.The rubber has a strong smell to it,the look of the title is realistic to real life with the globe in the middle of it. The price for this Vivid Imaginations Intercontinental title is 10.99 at most retailers.Woolworths and Argos would be a good place to...

Review of Vivid Imaginations WWE Intercontinental Championship Belt - Championship

THE WWE TITLE NOT INTERCONTINENTAL

Advantages: Good Design and Great Look
Disadvantages: Price

...WWE Championship Belt Review Quick Note To everyone reading this as you can note on my title i have the WWE Championship Belt this is because Ciao have got a mistake up on their review title for this one.This is not the Intercontinental Title its the WWE championship title.Ciao have a made a mistake on this and this infact is the WWE Title which you see on the RAW brand of the WWE. The WWE Title Info The WWE had a normal WWE title nothing fancy nothing that has flashyness on it,Just a normal WWE title which was to say a bit dull looking and needed to freshen up.Well the WWE title had a change when John Cena in 2005 Wrestlemania 21 beat John Bradshaw Layfield.Cena then got rid of the old WWE title and turned this into a more flashy title.You would have thought once Cena would lose the belt the design would change the title...

Review of Vivid Imaginations WWE Intercontinental Championship Belt - Spinning Belt

The Hotel that has everything

Advantages: 5 Star Luxury
Disadvantages: Have to come home!

...on and necessary directions. There is a 24 hour room service if you can't bear to leave your room and also valet and laundry service, which we did not use. +Places to eat+ Harubba Restaurant I love to eat! I have already mentioned the Lobby Bar, the other most popular place is the Harubba Restaurant, which is on the first floor, and this has an International Buffet. Breakfast is served here, and like a lot of restaurants has everything you can think of, and also a buffet in the evening. On some occasions chefs come from other Intercontinental hotels and it was a Greek buffet whilst we were on holiday. It is above the reception, but open plan so you can see what is happening around you. Soprano Restaurant The Soprano Restaurant is on the same level and can be opened up, with the Harubba, to make into one large restaurant. It is advisable to...

Review of InterContinental Malta, Saint Julian's

Hotel International

Advantages: Location, breakfasts
Disadvantages: Poor rooms

...I recently went on a cultural girlie trip with a friend to Paris. I was left to do all the booking. I was looking for a reasonable hotel, near a metro stop, which included breakfast. I came across the Hotel International on various travel sites and it seemed fairly highly rated so I booked us in for three nights. LOCATION: The hotel is located 6 Rue Auguste Barbier in the 11th Arrondissement. The nearest Metro stop is Garcourt which was a two minute walk away and it was a five minute walk to Republique which gives good links to other lines. It's not really central enough to avoid the Metro and walk to the attractions but it was located so close to a stop that it seemed ideal. PRICE: Prices vary depending on size of room and season. There are singles, doubles and triples available. We paid Euro254 for the whole time...

Review of Hotel International, Paris

hotel olsanka

Advantages: Cheap and cheerful
Disadvantages: Not so easy to access the town centre of prague.

...hotel olsanka prague Having been to prague recently and having stayed at this particular accomodation a few years ago, I was keen to give this place one final chance as I had had a really rubbish stay at this place. Similarly to my previous stay, I had notice that the Hotel seems to be advertised much cheaper on accomodation websites compared to near enough all other places to stay in prague. getting to the accomodation The details of getting to prague town centre are covered in my previous prague accomodation review, and whilst this accomodation is not as easy to get to location wise, a tram journey needed to get the accomodation from one of the central location's of prague town centre. booking process I booked this accomodation using a third party reservation booking website and paid around seventy euros...

Review of Hotel Olsanka, Prague

Now one of my five favourite hotels in the world.

Advantages: Great room, excellent service, attention to detail
Disadvantages: Room service food a bit bland

...At most hotels, I fill in the "Guest Comments Card" and leave it when I check out, and wonder if anyone reads it. Once in a while, I know that someone has read it as I get an Email (on one occasion, I actually got a letter!) but at the Al Bustan Intercontinental there was no doubt. As we checked out, the receptionist swiped the credit card and, while waiting for it to clear, she took the form into the back room. A minute later she was back. "Sir, you weren't very happy with the room service? I'm really sorry to hear that. What was wrong?" Huh? Someone was interested? I told her that the food had been a little bland and suggested that as there was a Chinese restaurant in the hotel, perhaps they could include some of those dishes in the menu? Now, under normal circumstances I would have expected mocking laughter at best, a "P...
