Best Western Hotel Montgomery, Mont-St-Michel

Advantages: Independently Owned & operated Good Quality
Disadvantages: Very Few

..., Highgate and Bryanston Court, Marble Arch. There are a number of hotels in Scotland in locations such as Dumfries, Edinburgh, Fort William, Glasgow, Kinross, Pilochry and the hallowed home of golf at St. Andrews. Best Western hotels in Wales are to be found at places such as Bangor, Lampeter, Llandudno, Llangollen, Newport and Swansea. Many of the best known establishments of this chain are located in Southern England and I have stayed at several of them. I thoroughly enjoyed a 3 day/ 2 night holiday in Exeter, the country town of Devon, and got a good accommodation, breakfast and dinner package for just over Stg50 pounds per person, per day, at the elegantly furnished Buckerell Lodge, a small country-style hotel, about a mile or so from the city centre. Meals in the Raffles Restaurant – an award winning eatery – were... Read review

...This Best Western hotel is one of about six Best Western Hotels all in this old part of Istanbul known as Sultanahmet. It really is in a very convenient location and the LOCATION is its greatest asset. It is a three star hotel in an area containing five star holiday attractions.

...Mont St Michel in the Gulf of St-Malo off the coast of Normandy, France. The Benedictine monastery (founded 708 AD) was used as a prison from the time of the French Revolution (1789-1799) until 1863. I visited Mont St Michel on a day trip during a fmily holiday in June. I was with my husband and 2 children (age 2 and 4 months at the time). The day we went was overcast to the first view of the Monastry was not as spectaular as I'm sure it is on a fine day. We paid c5 Euros to park and then walked about 100yards to the entrance and then paid another 1 Euro to use the loo! It was heaving with people when we got there which was a bit scary with a toddler who wanted to run and explore and a pushchair to manouvre. The path were very narrow and cobblestone which was great to see as I love all things historical but it was very... Read review
