Advantages: Good location, near to main attractions, excellent retro decor Disadvantages: Supercilious staff and expensive ale
On my last trip to Budapest I was very lucky to choose a hotel within walking distance of the centre and quite a few of the main attractions. The Mercure Budapest was formerly known as The Taverna and is located about two minutes walk away from the bank of the River Danube. We arrived by taxi from the airport which is roughly about 17 kilometres and as I paid the taxi driver I remember thinking that I really liked the fact that the front entrance which is quite grand was on a main road with tourists milling around. I much prefer this than being stuck away down a dark alleyway.
I was impressed with the front entrance of the hotel with its glass windows shining through to the myriad of lights inside and beautifully manicured conifers sitting upright in purple pots with the Mercure sign embellished on the front. The last time I stayed in ...
Advantages: large selection of conference rooms for businesses Disadvantages: no entertainment for those not in a conference,
I stayed at the Ramada Hotel and Conference Center, Edmonton, for 18 days in October. The stay was not a comfortable one. The check in counter was lined up upon arrival, and always appears to be lined up. The Elevators are ODD. You never know what will happen when you get in one when it finally shows up at your floor. The beds are hard. I was put on a waiting list for a fridge and in the 18 days never received a fridge. The wireless internet was unstable, sometimes allowing me to hook up, sometimes shutting down in the middle of an email. It advertised as wireless but I had to use the cable the majority of the time. There is only two washers and two dryers (that take up to two hours to dry one load), which seems inadequate for the number of rooms in the hotel. The staff at the front desk and the restaurant are somewhat unprofessional ...
Advantages: Very readable, good characterisation Disadvantages: None.
This is the third of Bernard Cornwell's Richard Sharpe novels and is set around the siege of Badajoz in 1812.
The novel is notable for two reasons:
1) The description of the horrors of besieging a fortress and 'going into the breach', and
2) The introduction of Sharpe's old enemy, the disgusting, supposedly unkillable Sergeant Obadiah Hakeswill,
Hakeswill was hanged as a child, survived and now believes that he cannot be killed. He hates Sharpe who used to be a private and has 'gotten above himself'
This book is a brilliant story and demonstrates what an excellent creation Richard Sharpe is. ...
