The Victoria Hotel, Canterbury

Victoria Park Plaza Hotel, London It's More Than A Hotel!

Advantages: Pleasant Staff, Good Customer Service, Nice Breakfast
Disadvantages: Expensive

The Victoria Park Plaza in London is an amazing hotel that has very comfortable, quality rooms and staff who are friendly and professional. The best thing about The Victoria Park Plaza is that it is in a prime position just two minutes from Victoria Station and an easy walk to some of London's main attractions. I found it perfect for shopping and buying souvenirs. There were also quite a number of restaurants close by and my mum who cannot walk far didn't complain once. Although we ate at the hotel we also sampled London's China Town. It is a four star hotel and lives up to the standard. It is situated close to Buckingham Palace, Harrods, Westminster Abbey and Houses of Parliament.

Review of Victoria Park Plaza Hotel, London

Victoria Hotel, Amsterdam

Advantages: Close to Centraal Station, good deals online
Disadvantages: Thin walls, expensive extras

Having read several bad reviews of the Victoria Hotel, Amsterdam, I thought I'd better add my 2 pence worth. I recently spent two nights here after finding a bargain last minute deal on the internet. PROS We booked a triple room, which was two twin beds and a third camp bed (added to the room after we arrived). The beds were comfy, and the room and ensuite were both spotless. The staff were exceptionally helpful and polite - one even recommended a restaurant which served vegetarian food. The swimming pool is free for guests to use, although we didn't. Despite being directly opposite the station, the rooms were lovely and quiet at night. Room service is excellent, and the food is delicious!! CONS The walls were a bit thin - you could hear voices and televisions late at night but this was only a problem on the first night ...

Review of Victoria Hotel, Amsterdam

Canterbury Cathedral

Advantages: Historical benefits,good attraction for all the family to learn about
Disadvantages: Mnay steps to climb.Apart form that none

Well as my Dover castle review seemed to go down rather well with ratings received, and this is a rather local attraction to me, I thought I would do a review won Canterbury cathedral. I can view this beautifully from my office window on my construction site, which I think is a privilege really. History of the Cathedral Well I should think most people know something about the cathedral and its history but I will merely scratch the surface of it in this review im sure? The Cathedral was founded in 597AD by St Augustine who landed on the south east corner of England as a missionary from Rome. St Augustine was given a site in Canterbury to set up his church and this was St Martins, which still stands today. This was given to him by the then King of England Ethelbert. This Church was used throughout the Roman occupation and in ...
