Advantages: Price, self-contained professional apartments, high quality accommodation Disadvantages: Slightly cramped, a little way out of town
We booked Appart'City for a 3 night long weekend in July, through Eurostar. At the time we booked, it was one of the cheapest options available. We knew it was a little way out-of-town, in the Madeleine district, but we decided that was an acceptable price to pay to get good quality accommodation at a low price. If you're travelling light, it's easily walkable from Lille Europe, otherwise hop on the red or green tram line (access underground at Lille Europe), and hop off at Romarin - one stop up the line. We found it difficult to actually find the building, and locals couldn't give us directions - it's not obvious that the building is a hotel, even when you're standing in front of it. Appart'City is basically a modern block of apartments which are probably mostly aimed at business travellers, but also available for tourist breaks. So ...
Advantages: A very impressive, historical location Disadvantages: The audio guide isn't really worth the money
The Loire Valley located in Central France is famous for its historical towns such as Blois and Amboise, however it is probably more famous for the famous Chateau?s. Perhaps the most famous of these would be the Chateau de Chambord. Designed in the French Renaissance style the Chateau is the best known within the region. The Chateau was originally built as a hunting lodge for King Francois 1st. Situated within 13,000 acre forest the setting for Chambord couldn?t be any more impressive.
From your first view of the Chateau it is a truly magnificent building. Positioned on the side of an expanded River the Ford around the front of the Chateau adds to the overall impression of the Chateau. The front of the building looks exactly as you would expect a Chateau or Castle to look as it towers above everything in the area and really gives that ...
Advantages: Reasonable story, good characters Disadvantages: Not sure about the colourisation
Forgive the pronunciation but it seems to be the Hawaiian vernacular. So there we were looking for suitable movies at the local multiplex to fill the void that was half-term week. Granted, this was a while ago but the movie?s worth reflecting on as it?s now in Video/DVD format. Sooooooo?having slalomed our way through the numerous nippers wondering about like refugee giraffes in a Toys-R-Us store, we finally negotiated our way to screen 4. Surrounded by the rustling of sweet wrappers and the inevitable kicks in the back from the obligatory restless child behind me, we settled down to take in Disney's 41st effort in their movie making sequence.
