Tulip Inn Amsterdam West - Cheep & Cheerful

Advantages: Cheap, Cheerful and Clean

...If you want a cheep but cheerful hotel for a great weekend in a fabulous place then Tulip Inn Amsterdam West is for you. The Tulip Inn Amsterdam West is a 3 star hotel situated in the western area of Amsterdam (3 stars indicates that the hotel has a quality rating).

Totally Tulip

Advantages: Beautiful flowers, easy to grow
Disadvantages: Can develop disease

...There are a great many wonderful plants and flowers on our earth and my favorite of them all is the Tulip, it may not be the most exotic or exciting of plants but I think it is one of true, simple beauty, one that is a dream to grow and a marvel to display. I've loved Tulips since I was a girl and my mother grew them in our garden, at first they seemed so plain, single flowers, bright in colour but unfussy but as the years passed and different varieties were introduced to our garden I realized how diverse and wonderful they really were, my love for the flowers finally reached it's peak when I selected white Tulips for my wedding bouquet and was presented with the most stunning arrangement of flowers I had ever seen. My love for the flowers has remained constant and it is with great excitement that I await each spring and the display I...

Tulips from Amsterdam

Advantages: A beautiful Spring bloom
Disadvantages: None

...As we head into the Spring months it is good to realise that we have the beauty of the spring bulbs to look forward to. Many of the supermarkets and florists have potted bulbs on sale already which are fairly inexpensive. Tulips have to be a favourite with many, there are so many varieties which offer a wonderfully attractive display of colour. Last year I planted some dwarf tulips in pots and although I had a good colourful show I have chosen to revert back to filling my tubs with the normal bulbs which provide stems at around 15 inches high. A few days ago I was walking around Lidl`s discount store and came across large bunches of healthy looking single tulips which were marked at £2.92 a bunch, considering these had been grown abroad and had been picked bunched and wrapped before importing they were such a bargain. Tulips...

Review of Tulips

Tulips From Amsterdam

Advantages: Satisfaction and Colour
Disadvantages: Not To Everyone's Liking

...Sorry to say it's that time of year when we will soon be buying and planting our bulbs for our spring show in the garden, or pots if you prefer. Tulips are one of the few bulbs that we associate with spring, even though we may not want to think about that already, soon we will be clearing our gardens to make way for the annual bulb planting. I tend to plant a lot in tubs, so that I can place them near the house and forever see some sort of colour when I look out the window in the dreary first months of the year. Facts Although Tulips are associated with Holland they were in fact originally classed as a wild flower grown in Asia and Turkey. They came to Europe from the gardens of the Turkish sultans, the name is derived from the word "turban" because that is what people thought the tulip flowers resembled. In the 16th...

Review of Tulips

Tulip Garden restaurant

Advantages: Great food, very friendly staff, great service!
Disadvantages: Absolutely none

...Tulip Garden Located on the Atatürk blvd. in Alanya, south Turkey, Tulip Garden is a neat café restaurant serving meals from 9:00 till 2:00. Now probably you wonder what's a Tulip Garden doing in Turkey, well, that's because the owner is a Dutch Turk, very nice guy who speaks fluent Dutch and English and who's come to Alanya some 7 years ago to start up his own business. Being smart, he focused on the Dutch tourists and their needs, which are: 1. Dutch food: frikandel, krokant (both kind of minced meat which is rather spicy, dressed and fried), basmati rice, bami, nasi (ok, all these are indian dishes the Dutch eat often, but don't ask me what those are, I had it explained a number of times but always forgot), filled toasts and of course beers. 2. TV screen: The Dutch ppl love to watch sports, particularly football, so...

Review of Tulip Garden, Alanya

Your only choice in central Breda

Advantages: Very well located in the centre of town
Disadvantages: No gym facilities

...staff are very helpful and courteous as is the manager, who now knows that with me, saying sorry is not enough to resolve any problem without actually doing anything about it. I would recommend this hotel for both short and long stays on the basis of location and generally reasonable customer service. But remember to stick up for yourself if you're not happy with anything.

Premier Inn, Charing Cross Glasgow

Advantages: Close to town and all amenities
Disadvantages: none

...I have never stayed in the Premier Inn before, but I felt I had to share my experience of the past weekend. The staff in both reception and the restaurant were fantastic, they were really helpful and made you feel right at home. The room and bathroom were both spotless, warm and the freeview television meant that my daughter didn't miss her soaps while she was away. The bed was both big and comfortable and we didn't have any trouble getting to sleep. We opted for the breakfast deal and we were not disappointed, the food was well cooked and warm there was also plenty of choice. Access to the hotel was excellent for both able bodied and non-able bodied people, we didn't have a wheelchair but we did have a six month old baby and a pram, and even though it is situated next to Charing Cross rail station we didn't hear a thing from...

Review of Premier Travel Inn Glasgow - City Centre (Charing Cross), Glasgow

The gilt has long faded on the Golden Tulip

Advantages: At least I wasn't spending my own money
Disadvantages: Plenty - just book a proper hotel somewhere more sensible

...The Dutch are famous for many things - cheese, clogs, a relaxed attitude to controlled substances and prostitution, little boys saving towns by sticking their fingers in dykes and of course the bulbfields. What they aren't famous for - and no wonder - is great hotels and hospitality. Of all the countries I travel to, Holland is one place where I can almost guarantee to be disappointed by a hotel - and the Golden Tulip in Zaandam really did live down to all my expectations. Why was I there? Oh I keep asking myself that. What fate sent me to such a god-forsaken down-market crappy Dutch hotel? On the plus side, it's only for one night but on the down side, surely somebody could have found something better than this. I work for a company that's in the midst of divorcing its separate parts in a messy but fairly civilised way. Some...

Review of Golden Tulip Amsterdam Zaandam, Zaandam

The Golden Tulip

Advantages: Comfortable, Conveniently located, All necessary facilities
Disadvantages: Some may find it a bit expensive

...Many of you who might have read some of my previous opinions will be aware that I travel to West Africa quite frequently and one of the destinations that I visit most is Accra in Ghana. When travelling to Africa in general one of the most important decisions you must make is the hotel that you intend to stay in. You need a place that provides you with comfortable rooms, clean food and water, entertainment and security. My hotel of choice is the Golden Tulip Accra Hotel. This hotel is part of the Golden Tulip chain of hotels. Golden Tulip hotels enjoy a high reputation throughout the world. More on the Golden Tulip chain later in this opinion. The Golden Tulip Accra Hotel is located just 2 km from Accra’s Kotoka International Airport and is commonly referred to as the “airport hotel”. Most major...
