Live like a Lord or Lady - Welcome to Ston Easton Park Hotel.

Advantages: Brilliant luxury hotel. Great location. Great value on late rate. Excellent dinner
Disadvantages: Can be expensive! Back to earth with a bump once you leave!

...Well before all who read my reviews think I just holiday in KL I thought it was about time to share with you a gem a little closer to home. Let me introduce you to the majestic grandeur that is Ston Easton Park near Bath in the UK. If you are looking for an amazing romantic getaway then this has to be worth considering! I had been away in KL for two weeks in March this year and had missed my partner dearly so still having a few days off work we thought why not get a few days away. Ston Easton here we come! Booking Ston Easton Park is part of the Von Essen Hotel collection, arguably the UK?s most luxurious country house hotel chain with such properties as the legendary Cliveden in Berkshire coming under their control. As such, they really know how to run a traditional country house hotel and make you feel truly at home! After...

Welcome to the Hotel Aldershot

Advantages: Erm?has potential
Disadvantages: Just too expensive for the quality on offer

...Ok; I'm hopeless at making firm arrangements. I was due at a leaving do for a colleague in London this last week; but had been uming and ahring whether or not I had the time to go. What really swung it for me was another 2 former colleagues who I haven't seen for years also decided they were going at the last minute. I offered to do the driving (seeing as I'm a non-drinker) and swing by Aldershot on the way past, pick them up and then drive onto South London. So in need of a hotel room (which, by this time, was tomorrow night) I was frantically searching the t'internet for a room for the night. There's a Premier Travel Inn in Aldershot, but on the numerous occasions I needed a room, they'd always been full (and was so in this case). I'd managed to track down a room at a Travelodge, but by the time I came to confirm...

Marriott Hotels: welcome to my world!!

Advantages: Great hotels and resoanbly priced
Disadvantages: Get booked up quickly!!

...Marriott Hotels and Resorts Marriott Hotels and Resorts is an American based company that offers hotels throughout the world mainly through a franchise agreement. I have stayed in many Marriott?s throughout the UK, Europe and also in the USA and have always found them to be a good standard of hotel providing excellent facilities, accommodation and courteous staff. There are different types and standards of Marriott hotel including Marriott marquis which are the crème de la crème of the chain as well as the cheaper and more cost effective Marriott Courtyard brand in addition to the Renaissance brand and Marriott time share opportunities. As most of my Marriott experiences are based on the standard Marriott hotels I will concentrate on that brand here!! Who are Marriott aiming for? I would say that the majority...

Review of Marriott Hotel, Leeds

  Sanctuary Amongst Chaos

Advantages: The location, excellent rooms in that price range, the pool
Disadvantages: No internet, few if you consider what you're paying, mixed opinions on cleanliness

... YOU'VE GOT TO FIND IT FIRST If you decide to stay at The Welcome Plaza Hotel, or indeed any hotel in Pattaya for that matter, it is advisable to print off the address in thai from a website. The chances are that you will be landing at either the new airport or the older (but impressively) refurbished one in Bangkok. From the latter it is a two hour taxi ride to Pattaya. This includes two obligatory stops: one for the driver to refuel the car and another for him to suddenly dash off for a piss in a ditch. It seems to be a tradition, or just the effect I have on people. If you are really lucky like me, then there might be a third time; when you get to help him change a tyre while huge trucks thunder past within inches of your backside.. ....all because he didn't pull over to the side of the road when he noticed he had...

A welcome rest

Advantages: range of locations, lots of deals, pets welcome
Disadvantages: added costs

...When it gets around to a certain time of year, most people start thinking about booking a holiday as something to look forward to. It can often be quite a stressful task, deciding where to go, whether you want to rent a place or stay in a hotel and what activities you're interested in doing. We normally decide to rent a holiday home as it gives us more freedom when it comes to when to get up and eating arrangements. To make the process of somewhere to stay easier, we always book with Welcome Holiday Cottages. They offer an extensive range of cottages and villas with properties in the UK, Ireland, France, Spain, Italy and Croatia. Each of the properties is rated according to their easy-to-use grading system so finding your ideal place to stay is made simple: Comfortable properties are practical, robust and reliable.

Review of Welcome Cottages

Fond memories in Brussels for keen travellers

Advantages: Friendly staff, unique decor, good location
Disadvantages: A touch expensive for what it is

...I have stayed it the Welcome many times in the past 18 months when in Brussels on business. It is located in the St Catherine district close to the metro and also to many good seafood restaurants. Other good eating places are to be found within 5 minutes walk including Thai and Vietnamese restaurants that line one particular street. The Grande Place is itself within 10 minutes walk. The hotel is a cosy and friendly place where the 15 rooms are named not in a numerical fashion but after different countries or geographical regions (or in the case of the Silk Road journeys). All rooms are decorated according to their name, many quite delightfully. I have stayed in probably half of the rooms at the Welcome; my favourites include Tibet which has its own little terrace (it being a superior room) and the Silk Road which is the most...

Review of Welcome Hotel, Brussels

Welcome to Marymooseport!

Advantages: A nice & mildly amusing film, includes a moose!
Disadvantages: Film got bad press and was a flop, not enough moose in it.

...Welcome to Marymooseport (there's a Maryport, and now a Mooseport, so I think there should be a Marymooseport)! An introduction For those of you who don't have the pleasure of knowing me, my name is not marymoose because I look like a moose (although if indeed you think that I look like a moose I will take that as a compliment), it is because I am obsessed with moose (and before you ask, the plural of moose is moose) and all things moose-related. Back when I worked at the Church of England imagine my excitement when I was surfing the net one day (searching for moose I would imagine) and came across a new film that was being made called "Welcome to Mooseport". It was like all my Christmoose's and Moosedays had come at once! It wasn't until a year later that I finally managed to get my hands on the DVD. The film was...

Review of Welcome To Mooseport (DVD)

Welcome Home - Brians debut solo album

Advantages: Showcases Brians vocals quite well, some catchy tracks,
Disadvantages: Wont appeal to all, BSB fans and others, some tracks slightly 'filler'

...- Introduction - Brian Littrell is well known as being one of the Backstreet Boys, one of the biggest selling boy bands of the 1990s. Anyone who has been a fan of his or has read many interviews with him from the start, will be aware that his faith is pretty important to him and plays a big part in his life. When asked what he might have been, had he not become a member of the group, he has often said that he would have gone on to become a youth minister or something similar and he has also stated from early on that if he were to do a solo project, it would likely involve his faith and that he would like to make an accessible records that would hopefully bring religion and faith to perhaps non religious people, such as some Backstreet Boys fans. Brians first solo album, entitled Welcome Home, was finally released in the US in...

Review of Welcome Home - Brian Littrell

"Welcome to the Hotel Santa Rita"

Advantages: Quiet, relaxed, small hotel with high standards, efficient friendly staff
Disadvantages: Lacking excitement for a younger crowd.

..."Welcome to the Hotel Santa Rita, such a lovely place, such a lovely face..." So sing the restaurant staff to the tune of the Eagles hit "Hotel California." And indeed they are correct, even if their singing is atrocious. The hotel complex itself is smaller than the average at 55 rooms, yet at no time does it feel claustrophobic or crammed in. In fact if anything this adds to its charm and friendly character. Situated in small well kept gardens within the complex that also contains the outdoor restaurant/bar, pool, Ayervedic clinic (for massage or traditional therapies) and a crepe restaurant. The rooms are airy and clean. Ours contained a small kitchen area with a sink and fridge stocked with water, beer and soft drinks. A ceiling fan in each room and an air conditioner as well in the bedroom. There was also a small TV in...
