Sofitel Cartagena Santa Clara, Cartagena

Santa Clara Bungalows

Advantages: Good Accomodation & location

sells a variety of esssential items for your stay. There is also a fantastic greek restaurant (Greek Village is the name, I think) It was very very nice, so much that we dined there 3 times during or stay. The beach is quite a bit away. Probably a good ten minute walk, downhill. There you can participate in the usual watersport activities or hire a sun lounger and top up your tan. The beach is nice and sandy and the water doesn\'t get too deep too quickly. The sea wasn\'t as cold as the pools! There are plenty stalls & restaurants along the beach front as well as the \"looky looky\" men. We didn\'t seem to get the same amount of hard sell for dinner here as you get in Teneriffe but maybe that is because it was the height of summer we when he stayed there. Our main reason for staying at Santa Clara Bungalows was the proximity ...

Review of Santa Clara Bungalows, Grand Canary

Luxury from the Sofitel

Advantages: Gorgeous rooms, nice facilities and great location
Disadvantages: Price may be too much for those on a budget

The result is a very quiet location even on front facing rooms which is quite ...

Review of Sofitel Le Faubourg - Paris Demeure Hotels, Paris

Great stay in a Sofitel

Advantages: Lovley room, great value room service, central location
Disadvantages: Bath was to small, Price

So myself and my girlfriend went travelling around the world visiting 29 countries from July to December. We stayed in budget accommodation all around the world, some of it was good enough and the rest well thankfully we survived unscathed. However when we arrived in Sydney things changed. My girlfriends mum had treated us to a hotel break away in the Sofitel for four nights as our Christmas present -------------------Our arrival-------------------- We arrived into Sydney from Bali, but arrived at the domestic terminal as we changed at Darwin in the early hours of the morning.

These choices were simple the cheap slow option or the expensive ...
