...I finally came across the Royal National Hotel which seemed half decent well there wasn't reports of rooms being ransacked put it that way. THE ROYAL NATION HOTEL The Royal National Hotel is London's biggest hotel with a total of 1,400 rooms. The hotel is rated at being 3*. The hotel is split into 2 buildings by the large outdoor driveway. The hotel has 3 very large restaurants where you go for your breakfast and evening meal if you have paid for ...
...After deciding on the Hotel Royal National I thought I would have a look round for the best deal but unfortunately this hotel doesn't seem to go for any less than the flat rate of £85 per room per night including breakfast. There weren't any pricier rates but there were sadly no cheaper ones and I am pretty good at getting a good deal. You can book online with most websites. Just type in Royal National Hotel in a search engine and it brings up all ... Read review

The Cumberland is easy to find, the staff are helpful, and the rooms are clean. However there are a couple of faults. Upon arriving at the hotel, I was told that my room had been double booked, but they decided to grant me a free upgrade. All good except that my room was now above the hotels nightclub, and I had to put up with booming music until 3am. That said, I did manage to have a wonderful sleep after it finished, and awoke feeling refreshed. ...
...want to get up! The other thing I wasn't too impressed with was the bathroom. There were several cracks in the plaster, one of the lightbulbs had blown and the complimentary shampoo bottle was half empty. My advice? At reception, ask what the noise levels are like in the room and don't accept it until you have inspected it. ... Read review

...have visited the island of Tresco and its fantastic Abbey Garden. Tresco itself is one of the larger of the Islands that make up this wonderful archipelago, and can be reached from the island of St Mary's via boat crossing several times a day. We opted for the 1015am sailing, and this simple boat carries about 85 people on bench like seating. The crossing takes about 30 minutes, and could be a little choppy in parts, although no one seemed to have ...
...lands on the beach at Tresco in the village known as Old Grimsby on the east of the island, and the waters are extremely shallow here. The captain of our boat was quite a comedian and as a result I know I was not the only one who thought it was a wind up that he asked the people at the back of the boat to move forward, so he could propel us the final few yards and on to the beach. I recommend the 1015 crossing so that you can maximise your time on ... Read review

We recently stayed in the Hoxton Hotel a few weeks ago after getting it in one of their £1 sales (I'll come on to that later) and we loved every minute of it! The hotel itself is still fairly new and calls itself an 'Urban Lodge'. It only opened in late 2006 and for a long time was booked up solid due to a lot of good reviews from the press and customers who managed to get a room there. It is located just by Old Street station with exit 3 being ...
...3 months of so the Hoxton hotel has a £1 sale where they release 5 rooms per night at £1 to be booked over a 3 month period. For example, they had a sale in April where you could book rooms between 1 May - 31 July. They only have 500 rooms available so you need to be quick. They recently had another sale for 1 August - 31 October and all the rooms sold out in about 20 minutes. At the same time as the £1 sale, they also offer a further 500 rooms at ... Read review

Advantages: Location
Disadvantages: The price it would have been without the special rate!

The location of this hotel was great, right in the city centre at Marble Arch, and as with most London hotels, only a short walk to a tube station. The lobby looked quite grand and you travel up on escalators to get to the check in area. We asked about an upgraded room when we checked in, as I'd read free upgrades were common at the time, but the receptionsit was quite non-plussed and said we'd have to pay extra for this - we left it. The room ...
...be well cleaned other than a sock that was hanging on the inside door handle! That did cause us to wonder if the room had actually been cleaned at all, or if it was an oversight. We gave them the benefit of the doubt and didn't actually mention this, although in hindsight we probably should have done! It was a bit of a trek from the lift to our room, but we didn't really mind this. Breakfast was really good, an all you can eat buffet style, and ... Read review
