Hotel Central la Defense Courbevoie

Advantages: Location, some spacious rooms, breakfast included, price tag.
Disadvantages: Early breakfast and the odd vibration from the trains.

We were lucky and had one of the biggest rooms therefore the room was a nice size and clean. The bathroom was very new and had a great shower as well as a bath.The location was between a train station and a metro which made it very accessible. It was also surrounded by sushi restaurants, and supermarkets so food was not an issue. Breakfast was basic and served before 10am, which is a good incentive to wake up and visit Paris. Having read other reviews ...
...would be rather noisy and in a bad area, the area was normal, not extravagant and not derelict, the noise level in the corridors was loud however within our room there were no noise issues. The railway is relatively near therefore there might be some slight vibrations but nothing that would cause a massive nuisance. ...

Review of Hotel Central La Defense, Courbevoie

Nice hotel, but you'll need to remortage to stay here!

Advantages: Relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, Lake Disney
Disadvantages: Prices,Prices, Prices!!

First things first, as we pulled in to the grounds of the hotel and I saw it in front of us, I thought I was seeing double. Never in my life have I seen a hotel this big, and with 1100 rooms, there will certainly always be availability! The hotel was certainly impressive and from the front had a look of the White House with great big white columns. The hotel has a nautical feel, which was aparant as soon as we walked through the huge doors to check ...
...hiccup occuring, whereby they didn't put our tickets in which we had prebooked and paid for a meal but this was quickly rectified. We then made our way down to our room, which took us about 10 minutes to walk to, so after effing and blinding as to the distance we had to walk, this was soon forgotten as we realised we had a ground level room facing Lake Disney. The room was standard with two double beds, a tv, a dressing area and of course a bath ...

Review of Disney's Newport Bay Club, Marne-la-Vallee

Hôtel Restaurant La Flambée -dine in style but bedrooms plain.

Advantages: Beautiful dining room
Disadvantages: Bedrooms adequate but not elegant.

...account as possible about the hotel as I can provide. Hopefully this may help if you are planning to visit this part of the world. We flew to Bordeaux but the most convenient airport for the hotel is actually in Bergerac as the hotel lies about 2 miles outside the town. Incase you are not familiar with this part of the world these places are in the main wine growing areas, and are in South West France. Flying time from the UK is about an hour and ...
...to enjoy. The hotel La Flambée is a family run hotel and you can visit the website at www.laflambee.com Our first impression as we saw the hotel was that it was inviting, and the reception was friendly and welcoming. Our room on the first floor was a double and created mixed feelings. We have been to quite a few French hotels and have found the rooms to have a decidedly romantic feel to them. This room was not in this category, but it was certainly ...

Review of Hotel Restaurant La Flambee, Bergerac

Bon Vacances at Port Bourgenay

Advantages: Masses to do, something for everyone.
Disadvantages: Maybe a bit pricey in high season

...for Port Bourgenay, run by Pierre et Vacances, as it looked like it was in a perfect location, is close to the beach, and there seemed to be a lot to do. It cost somewhere in the region of £1000 for the accommodation (£250 in deals) for seven nights and £300 for the return ferry. ~*~ Location ~*~ We live in the south west, so a Portsmouth - Cherbourg crossing is ideal for us. We always get the earliest ferry (around 9am) so we arrive in France around ...
...our accommodation and settle in by bed time. Or so I thought! This really wasn't the easiest place to find at all. We knew the main towns that we had to head towards: Rennes, Nantes, La-Roche-Sur-Yon, and finally onto Les Sables-d'Olonne before following the signs for a few miles to reach our destination. We estimated that this would take us about five hours, but given the good old French road signs, my map reading and stopping for a wee and not ...

Review of Pierre & Vacances Port-Bourgenay, Talmont

Best Western Le Donjon Les Ramparts certainly not Best Value

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Split into different buildings, expensive.

...perfectly honest that was the best bit. For those of you that have visited and enjoyed your stay I will apologise now but we absolutely hated it, if I had wanted a theme park I would have gone to Disneyland! The city was full of the most horrendous ‘tat’ gift shops selling everything from fake suits of armour to tee-shirts with knights on them and really awful ‘attractions’ (I use this word loosely) such as the haunted manor and weapon museum. It ...
...The rooms pictured on the Best Western website looked nothing like ours. I can only imagine that they are executive rooms and not standard ones. While ‘grumpy’s’ room had been recently refurbished ours looked like something from the Crossroads Motel. (Old midlands soap opera). It was shabby! The furniture had seen better days, the walls could have done with a lick of paint and you had to run around to get wet in the shower. ‘Grumpy’s’, on the other ...
