well as the high standards expected from the Meridien hotels. Apart from the circular lobby on the second floor, there is also a large modern atrium on the ground floor where guests can access the hotel and even enjoy the art gallery leading off from the atrium. From a busy day at the exhibition centre, to visiting Tokyo or Disneyland, or enjoying a simple stroll along the only beach area in Tokyo. this hotel really has something to offer all guests. The hotel is one of the Tokyo Disney Resort Good Neighbour Hotels, which provides free shuttle bus services to and from Tokyo Disney Resorts.
Advantages: First Class Hotel Disadvantages: Alot of development ongoing nearby
...Le Royal Meridien Spa Beach Resort and Spa
Have stayed at the Meridien Spa twice now and it has to have been one of the best hotels I have stayed in. If we are flying through Dubai it is the only place the family will stay in for a couple of days stop over.
Upon arrival in Dubai, after negotiating the immigration queues. LeMeridien will meet you (if prearranged) and drive you to the resort. The hotel is situated about 25 minutes from the airport and 20 minutes from the centre of Dubai. Taxis are available but last time I visited it was a nightmare trying to find one at 3 in the morning! You cannot walk from your hotel into town unless you are mad! Wild Wadi is close by, 10 minutes by taxi.
Upon arrival everything is taken care of, your luggage taken to your room while you register and sign in. Welcome drinks upon arrival...

...A couple of months ago I visited the UAE (United Arab Emirates).
I stayed with my boyfriend’s brother in a town called Al Ain, which is about 1 hr 30 minutes from the popular destination of Dubai (You may want to check out my review on Dubai).
Apart from spending a couple of days in Dubai, we also spent 2 days (one night) in the 5 Star, LeMeridien Al Aqah Beach Resort in Fujairah.
***********Where is it?***********
Fujairah is Nestled between the Hajar Mountains and the Indian Ocean, LeMeridien Al Aqah Beach Resort is situated on a superb stretch of private Al Aqah Beach in the picturesque emirate of Fujairah.
The resort is located on the east coast of the United Arab Emirates, Approx 49 kilometres from Fujairah town and 90 minutes from cosmopolitan Dubai. All rooms at LeMeridien Al Aqah Beach Resort enjoy a sea view...

Advantages: Proximity to airport & city centre, choice of restuarant, luxury Disadvantages: None other than distance to beach!
...welcome especially considering the temperature in Dubai rarely dips below 40oC.
The hotel also offers a large selection of sports and spa facilities. I can't comment on these other than to say the tennis players looked rather warm!
The location of the hotel is ideal for anyone wanting to see the city. A five minute taxi ride will place you firmly in the main city centre. A twenty minute taxi drive will take you to the beach. For approximately £15 you can spend the day at the Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort & Spa. I believe the only exceptions to this are Sundays and public holidays when guests from other Meridien hotels are not accepted.
The cost of this hotel is approximately £66 per night for a deluxe room. I think this is an amazing price considering all this hotel has to offer. We paid approximately £700 each for 13 nights...

Le Méridian Phoenicia has for a long time styled itself as the premier hotel in Valetta, and there are certainly grounds for agreeing with that verdict. It boasts many famous vistiors, and when there were all the documentaries about the 80th birthday... more

In their debut EP, this Tokyo Police Club break the mould of what is usually expected of a new, up and coming indie band. It’s hard to categorise a sound that is so reliant on pace – each song is delivered with the urgency that is so often lacking from... more
