Advantages: Great location, lovely entrance areas Disadvantages: very shabby in bedrooms
Edinburgh is one of those cities near enough for us to visit for a weekend, and with enough attractions and shops to keep us all busy. So, we tend to go a couple of times a year.
I usually book online, and because I don?t know the city well, it?s usually a bit of a feat finding the hotel. Last time we went, our hotel was very difficult to find, and because it was at the opposite side of the city to ?our side? (Newcastle side), we had to negotiate the city centre- not good for anyone who doesn?t know the city.
This hotel, by contrast, was incredibly easy to find. Armed with my route finder directions, we set off, and it seemed that no sooner had we entered the city than we were there.
The hotel itself is located on a beautiful tree lined street of Georgian terraces- very stately. Our one problem when we first arrived is that ...
Advantages: Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Las Vegas Disadvantages: None

Danny has the perfect friends in order to carry out this job, one is a fixer, another a blackjack dealer, another a pickpocket, all worthy occupations to help you scam casinos out of $150 million!! Danny is played brilliantly by the gorgeous George Clooney. He is so ...
Advantages: better atmosphere Disadvantages: depends on the crowd control
The prices of seats at a game are extortionate and the atmosphere is being totally lost. I say bring back the terraces. We are not hooligans or thugs. We want to stand and sing and watch our team standing up. The hillsbourough disaster wasnt about standing up or sitting down. It was about police incompetance leading to a cover up.
Football is so popular nowadays a huge terrace and grounds could host a crowd or 70 or 80 thousand. and prices would certainly go down to about £10 so the clubs would still make the money. Man Utd requested it last season, but its time they listened and the good old days would return. ...
