Hotel Goldener Schlussel, Bern

Advantages: All inclusive with great food, no kids, great staff
Disadvantages: None

...We wanted to have a break away just the two of us without our kids and knew we wanted an all inclusive break. After much deliberation we decided to try the Atlantica Golden Beach and were not disappointed. This is a Thomson Gold Hotel and we received Gold service from the minute we booked. Everyone was so friendly. When we arrived into Paphos airport we were quickly shown to our bus and because it is a Gold hotel you are dropped off first. The Manager and staff were there to greet us with drinks and a short information session about where restaurants, bars, facilities were. We had upgraded our room to a Double Superior and this meant that we were guaranteed a sea view along with a bottle of wine, fruit, bathrobes, slippers, television, cd player and canopy over our large double bed. There was one large buffet restaurant... Read review

...The Golden Donaire Park Hotel is a well run family hotel. It has a great beachside location and it is excellent for families and couples looing for a value-for-money holiday. The hotel is 1.5km from shops, bars and restaurants of La Pineda. This only takes approx 8-10 mins to walk leisurely. The hotel has a decent sized pool and also a separate children's pool. There are plenty of sunloungers for the sunworshippers. Meals are taken in air-conditioned non-smoking restaurant which serves buffet hot/cold meals. There is plenty of food and a variety of choices.

...Bern must be one of the best kept secrets in Europe when it comes to selecting a destination for a city break. Transferring from Zurich Airport was simplicity itself, as the airport station has a direct,express service to Bern which takes about 75 mins.Even with an 8 month old baby and buggy, the journey was stress-free, as our luggage was delivered directly to our hotel from the airport and vice-versa on the return journey. Our package on a 6 night stay with Kuoni was tremendous value, considering we were staying in one of the city's 5 Star Hotels, The Schweizerhoff, which is within easy walking distance of Bern's subterranean railway station. Bern is clean, safe and easy to get around. If you buy a travel pass, this covers transport on bus, tram , train and even steamer, if you wish to travel further afield. Contrary... Read review
