...The Old Mill Hotel is situated in Motherwell, North Lanarkshire. I have been to The Old Mill on numerous occassions for Sunday lunches and Weddings. The Old Mill is a very popular place to host Wedding receptions and parties.The Old Mill hotel Is less than a 5 minute drive from Strathclyde Country Park (aka M&D's) and approx 3 minutes drive from Motherwell town centre. The Old Mill Hotel has 8 en-suite bedrooms, which are reasonably priced. As I have only ever had lunches and been a guest at wedding receptions at the hotel I cant comment on what the rooms are like.

The suite holds 100 for a meal and 160 people in total for evening entertainment. The food at the hotel is great and they serve quite big portions... Read review

...My wife and I went skiing in Livigno in March 2000 looking for somewhere a little cheaper and smaller where we could work on our skills. Accommodation We stayed at the Garni Francescato, which offered new clean rooms with ensuite facilities. While not overly large, they were fine for a week where little time was to be spent indoors. The breakfast room/bar, was downstairs and offered an alternative place for relaxation. TV’s were in all the rooms, as well as a personal safe.

Advantages: Fantastic location by the river
Disadvantages: No lift

...The Hotel Hansablick is a three star hotel based in a lovely 100-year old Berlin town house. It has 29 rooms over 4 floors, and was refurbished in 2005. ~~~ Location ~~~ The hotel is set in a quiet residential area right next to the River Spree. It is on the north west corner of the Tiergarten, and only a couple of tube stops to the main shops on Kurfurstendamm. The nearest U-Bahn station is Hansaplatz (approx 4 minute walk) and the S-Bahn station Tiergarten is about a 2 minute walk. Tickets for public transport can be purchased at the reception, although I found it pretty easy to do this directly at the station, despite my limited German. ~~~ Reception ~~~ From the quiet street you enter the hotel through a large door (sometimes open, sometime you have to buzz for entry). This leads to the foot of two flights of stairs, all wood... Read review
