Water and smiles everywhere!

Advantages: High standard of rooms, not far from airport, sociable environment.
Disadvantages: The outside of some of the buildings could do with a lick of paint. Price.

...way, we arrived at the Park Hyatt and were immediately welcomed, seated and presented with a hot towel and cooling fruit drink. We were given a Park Room (standard room). The room was of a good size, a little dark which was actually quite nice to escape the heat of the day outside. Views were overlooking the gardens and pool area and all rooms have either a balcony or terrace. The bathroom is one of the best i have seen in India with a sunken bath ...
...not leave their rooms. The Park Hyatt does not have any private pools and I think this is to the benefit of the resort as it remains much more sociable. We were always greeted with a smile from the staff, from check-in through to check-out, that really made a big impression. The outside of some of the buildings need a lick of paint however this is a minor issue and one that would not stop me from returning. The prices are expensive, usually several ...

Is Your Girl A Goa?

Advantages: quiet beach, nice pool, big room
Disadvantages: Long way from the airport, mediocre buffet

Ever since some friends of mine were raving about Goa, about ten years ago, I'd been wanting to visit. You see, many moons ago I might have liked the idea of being a trailblazer, a pioneer, travelling to places where visitors were rare and no souvenir shop had yet opened but now - with two destructive minimees, I don't even pretend to fancy myself as an explorer any more. Nope, we are no longer ever in the first boat to new territories - we wait ...
...loungers on the beach and a bar that sells a decent vodka! So, how did we finally end up in Goa? Well we were in the neighbourhood, so to speak, so decided to pop in. And we were enticed by a great offer! It was off season so we managed to get an unbeatable deal at the Intercon Resort - otherwise I would not stay at an Intercontinental (they annoyed me, big time, and I am sulking. But that is the subject for another story). Airport and getting there ...

It's a Hydera-goodie in Hydera-baddie

Advantages: Fantastic value and amazing tour package
Disadvantages: South Indian Breakfast - sorry Varun but my stomach can't handle curry at 8 am!

...fun we had at the Hotel Geetanjali. Finding Hotels in India Trying to find a hotel in a city that you don't know is always a bit of a challenge and when it's in India, it can be doubly tricky. Many's the evening I've spent staggering round the internet trying to get an objective opinion on Indian hotels but this time we really fell on our feet. We've stayed in some very dodgy cheap Indian hotels in the past; who could forget the one with the ...
...nervous about choosing an inexpensive hotel but when I looked at reviews of mid-priced hotels in Hyderabad, I couldn't find anything that persuaded me it was worth paying the extra. All I really wanted was to find a base from which we could explore and get the most out of the city. Normally I ask people who've been to a city I'm going to visit. I try to find out the 'right' areas to stay in and then go and search the internet for something suitable. ...

Excellent Historical Site

Advantages: Beautiful Building, Excellent service
Disadvantages: Can get hot in summers

...behind it has to be Fort Khejarla!!!!! The best ambience without a doubt was the ambience which was out of the world, with the village all around. The feeling is like being nestled in heaven. The walk outside the hotel in the village is beautiful; service is par excellence, historical and cultural tours are very information and interesting. All this enhances the Khejarla experience. This place is not visited by traditional tours, but you cannot miss ...

Feel like an indian empress for the day..or week..

Advantages: great location for tourists, brilliant service
Disadvantages: a bit dated in appearance, not enough restaurants and bars

...ehtnically Bangladeshi and Live in the UK my whole life.. We went back to visit the family in dhaka (capital of bangladesh) and decided to go for a little trip to our neughbouring country!! Getting a visa was a tedius job, and in retrospect we should have sorted that out in the UK before leaving for holiday.. Kolkata was a wonderful city to visit - remnants of the old british raj are all well and truly alive in this almost forgotten city as well ...
...for you folks) Aside from the race course, victoria memorial, restaurants such as Oh! Culcutta and cafes such as Flury's that must be visited in kolkatta, the main reason bangladeshi's g to india is by and large to go shopping!! The indian materials, designers, and outfits are brought from all over india to culcutta still after 60+ years since the british left it is in this sense quite a culutral hub where you see many faces and cultures of india ...
