Radisson Plaza Hotel, San Salvador

Advantages: As Close to The city centre that you can be
Disadvantages: We could not think of any.

..., it is difficult because this is a typical corporate Radisson hotel, with Marble floors and large atrium style reception. I guess what is memorable other than its key location, and lovely staff is the magnificent Dinning room / resturant which serves both fantastic evening meals as well as the sort of "satisfying a need" food such as club sandwiches and great burgers. The breakfasts however were outstanding with one of the largest selections of hot and cold, fresh and traditional breakfast fare. It is everything you would want from a SAS Radisson with the added bonus of a prime location, and lets face it if you are going to Helsinki, it is the location that you are after and the style and comfort of the hotel is a bonus... and the Plaza gifts a lovely bonus....

Advantages: Close to Beveley Hills
Disadvantages: Location is a bit dodge....Dont go out at night without a bodyguard!!

...but with slow staff .....nightmare. We where lucky to get an upgrade to a mini suite, but again the room wasnot very nice.The king bed was lumpy, and the room as well as the rest of the hotel needed refurbishment in my opinion.The main problem was noise of the traffic and air con units in the room.General lack of maintainance was also a problem as both the sink and coffee maker had problems.

The hotel did have a small... Read review

Disadvantages: No breakfast, slightly grubby

...The Grant Plaza Hotel in San Francisco is located at the gateway to the Chinatown area of the city, and is predominantly Chinese-run. It is a quiet, unassuming hotel, which is clean, basic and most importantly a cheap place to rest in a busy, expensive city! The rooms are accessed by elevator and a security door prevents any unwanted entry 24 hours. Many of the rooms face onto the street which can be very busy and therefore quite noisy. The rooms themselves are slightly grubby, but otherwise a good base for exploring the city. Most rooms are en-suite with colour TV with cable. The service and staff is faultless, as you will find across the area. The Plaza hotel offers only bed (no breakfast), although there are many cafes locally which offer cheap food (and plenty of it!). (while there, do explore the Chinatown area - it... Read review
