Isles of Glencoe Hotel, Ballachulish

Advantages: Beautiful scenery and lots to do
Disadvantages: Expensive

I visited the Isles of Glencoe Hotel in April 2008 with my partner. It was a last minute decision to book a long weekend away to Scotland, and it was by far the best choice we could have made. The views on the drive up to the hotel from Glasgow airport were amazing, and once at the hotel, the scenery was absolutely breath taking. It couldn't have been situated in nicer surroundings. There was plenty to do surrounding the hotel, whether it be outside ...
...hotel grounds were also ample, having a swimming pool and sauna provided, as well as outdoor activities on the the loch. There were also many walks and climbs just outside the main entrance. The staff were also extremely friendly and helpful. The food was delicious, however the service could be quite solw. This was not really a problem as it was such a relaxing break that it was quite nice to sit and chill out in the restaurant. Drinks were also ...

Review of Isles of Glencoe Hotel & Leisure Centre, Ballachulish

Bay Tree Hotel is a beautiful hotel in Burford

Advantages: Location, log fire, comfort, great food
Disadvantages: Costly

In my view, this is a great hotel that offers a comfortable place to explore Oxford and the Cotswolds. The hotel is made up of a number of individual rooms, each with their own unique style. Molton Brown products are in the bathroom to help keep you refreshed and the bed is one of the most comfortable I have stayed in. The log fire in the bar is a real attraction on a cold winter's day, and the breakfast is great. Staff are very friendly and remembered ...

Review of Bay Tree Hotel, Burford

The Riverside Hotel is a lovely period building

Advantages: Great value, lovely location, very good food, lovely personal service - nothing is too much troubl
Disadvantages: Creaky floors and service fell down a little at breakfast

The Riverside Hotel is a lovely period building down a long winding drive, overlooking the River Avon. We only stayed one night and had a bargain room at £39 for Bed & Breakfast. I expected to be stuck in a broom cupboard for that price, but the room was in fact generously sized and because it was available, we were given a room with an en-suite Jacuzzi for no extra charge! All the furniture was period, lovely old wooden furniture, in keeping with ...
...was a bit uneven and slightly sloping, but this wasnt a problem at all, more quaint and endearing. We had a lovely big bay window overlooking the river, with a velvet covered seat all around, and we watched the sun come up in the morning to reveal the river, and a lovely frosted hillside as it had been a cold night. The room also had a wonderful comfortable king sized bed, well dressed with continental quilt, heavy spread in case we were cold, and ...

Review of Riverside Hotel, Evesham

Family Dining.

Advantages: Good basic food and family friendly.
Disadvantages: Nothing major.

Moss cottage is situated on the Nottingham Road as you are entering Ripley in Derbyshire. Over a number of years we have often visited the restaurant for the Sunday carvery lunch as we have been passing through, on the whole most of our visits have been successful but there has been the odd blot on the landscape. If you are not familiar with the area there is every chance that you would pass by without even realising that Moss Cottage existed. The ...
...meal. Moss Cottage have an A la carte menu and some other `specials` advertised on a chalk board. On our last visit we took Mum with us who is a vegetarian and to be honest the choice for her was slightly limited but she in the end she thoroughly enjoyed a salmon dish. We both chose the carvery meal, my husband had the large carvery and I had the smaller serving. All three of our meals were under £8 a head which if you enjoy what you eat has to ...

Review of Moss Cottage Hotel, Ripley

4 Star Quality / 4 Star Stay - Novotel Reading

Advantages: Great location. Competitive price. Pleasant rooms.
Disadvantages: Typical carbon copy hotel. No real originality.

For those of you who follow me regularly it’s time I got back to the hotel reviews as this is where my real passion lies. Now you may think that all my luxury travels are over with a review on the Novotel but trust me they are not! Needing a quick bed for the night in the middle of the city I chose the Novotel and surprisingly I actually enjoyed myself! Booking Before I booked my hotel I browsed the net to look at the options available and the ...
...tripadvisor and expedia it became clear that the Novotel was going to be best for my needs. 4*, good location, good price. I believe in booking accommodation with the property directly as you can tend to get more of your preferences agreed over the phone this way. I booked my room for £69 for a Saturday night stay including breakfast for two, which wasn’t bad at all! I also asked for a room on a high floor and in a quiet spot. Without the skyline ...
