the amenities of the centre. Within a minutes walk you?ll find the heart of the city so this is a very good location.
As with all Ibis hotels the public areas are small and functional. Reception doubled as a bar and also the breakfast room. We didn?t eat breakfast there but we were told it would cost an additional £5.50 for a continental breakfast. There was a vending machine here selling soft drinks and snacks, and newspapers to read but these had to be kept in the lounge area. Check in was quick and easy and we were issued with our key card and directed to the sixth floor.
The room was fairly small but there was enough room to move around. The en suite bathroom was the ?pod? kind where a plastic bathroom can be found within a plastic kiosk in the corner of the room. Why do these things exist? Why not build a proper partition and just have ...

Advantages: Good location, not too noisy, good value if on offer Disadvantages: Slow check in
Although I am usually to be heard extolling the virtues of hostels and small private hotels, I have of late found myself increasingly turning to Accor hotels.

Although we were traveling into and out of Kings Cross we were happy enough to stay at Euston as ...

If like me you are the sort of person who prefers to stay in more moderate hotel accommodation in order to have more money to spend on things like eating out (or the purchasing of horrific souvenirs) you may be interested to know that to celebrate their 30th anniversary, some of the brands that fall under the Accor umbrella are offering a limited number of rooms at special rates this year. It does mean that you can't alter your reservation and won't qualify for a refund if you cancel but for those travellers who are willing to risk that, there are bargains to be had.
In mid-June we are going to Hanover and have booked a double room in a very central Mercure hotel for just 39 Euro per night and have just stayed in the Ibis Graz, the subject of this review, for 59 Euro for a double room, a saving of some 20 Euro based on two people ...
