The pub is definitely worth all the reviews that it has won. The food is tasty and in plentiful supply. I was stuffed after having soup of the day and…

The hostel is next to the railway station, though I didn't hear any train noise during my two day stay. The facilities are modern and clean. Nice r…

It's pretty easy to find, from the Charles Bridge - outside the museum you will also find two male (you'll see why) statues and a water feature! It…

Stayed here, as had left it too late to book a hotel in Twickenham (for the rugby). It was cheap - £55 for a twin room. The actual room itself wa…

This place is amazing! If you only go to one temple - then this one would be at the top of your list. There are 28 minor wooden statues of gods and…

Having been to J-Hoppers in Osaka, I thought it would be a safe bet to stay at this one in Kyoto. I wasn't wrong, though maybe I could have been more …

A small guesthouse, that's about a five minute walk from Tamatsukuri JR-loop station. The staff speak good English and are exceptionally helpful (n…

A very short walk (less than five minutes) from the JR Fukushima station - so no problem in getting back on to the JR Loop and wherever you want to go…

A newish hotel branch that's opened in Cardiff. It's a minute's walk away from the train station, so you are close to everything in the city centre. …

The hotel is in the Grassmarket area, so you're really close to a lot of pubs and restaurants. I can recommend The White Hart Inn, which is opposite t…

I read the recent Guardian review and had an upcoming trip to Cardiff. Normally I'd find a cheap hotel, but that would normally mean staying in somewh…

If you find yourself in Edinburgh on a rainy day - then this is a great tour of part of Edinburgh that is now hidden away. It's advisable to ring u…

I've never had a Kurdish meal, so was intrigued as to what style it might be in. I imagined some kind of Turkish/Greek/Something else combo. It did…

I like to be able to hear what people are saying if I'm in a pub. I don't want loud music, so that you have to shout in people's ears to be heard. …

This was my third stay at the Marriott. It's really close to the train station and the Millenium Stadium, so it's really convenient. It's not the …

If a restaurant asks you how you want your burger cooked, then things always look promising. And I wasn't disappointed. I had The Works burger, fo…

We did the Ghost Trail one very dark night, with low clouds and wisps of fog twining around our feet. You meet the guide at the town hall, in his t…

A couple of Barcelona friends took me here, you probably won't find it accidentally! We had the set meal, which was about 25€. It was five (at le…

Great location, just up from the train station - so only a five/ten minute walk in to the centre of the city. Some of the rooms don't have bathroom…

I'm a regular at the hotel, as I have to travel to see my dentist in Witney. The owners are always friendly and welcoming, actually remembering previo…

The cheapest way I found of getting to Pearson Airport from the city centre - is to get the subway (TTC) on the westbound Bloor line (green), for abou…

One of only a few bars left in Midland. Seems like everybody stays at home and drinks, or they were hiding somewhere. You can't really miss it if y…

Conflicting themed restaurant: some Halloween-style writing on walls (think Rocky Horror Show), with an Italian style. We had a couple of great pas…

Had a great afternoon at this Belgian bar. They serve all the usual eclectic Belgian bottled beers, along with some great local beers. The staff we…

Calls itself a "boutique hotel", whatever one of those is. Our room was on the ground floor, through a door from reception. The room had quite a st…

It's a quirky Swedish-styled hotel, whatever one of those is - I don't remember seeing any hotels like this, when I was in Sweden. It's about a five m…

Beside the Natural History Museum in London, this is the best museum I have ever been to. I think you could easily spend two days in here and not cove…

Not the best hostel I've ever stayed at. Given an indifferent welcome on arrival, office staff seemed too concerned with tapping away at keyboard. …

Very friendly welcome, as soon as I walked through the door into the bar. Sometimes entering a bar feels like an old cowboy movie, where the music sto…

Alan's 4WD Tours can be booked from your accommodation in Mt Cook - I booked mine at the YHA, where you can get an extra YHA member discount. The …

The only real alternative, if you can't afford the Hermitage Hotel. Excellent facilities and very comfortable double bed for me. The usual stuff like …

An absolute bargain! Booked via Expedia for a single at 25 pounds a night (60 NZ$...). On arrival got upgraded to a double. The room is small, but …

A short hop, skip and jump from the ferry terminal - don't be lazy getting the free-transfer or a cab. Greeted by very friendly staff and got a double…

I stayed here twice on my trip to New Zealand, I liked it that much. It's in a great location: there are bars, restaurants and cafes within five-te…

Not so cheap, I asked for a quote for a double for two nights and the owner replied $110 – I thought that was great for two nights, however this was…

Very cheap and I managed to bag the last twin – actually a small mobile/caravan. The owners are very friendly and eco-conscious – there are recycl…

Probably the best Eggs Benedict I've ever had, even if the recipe deviates slightly from what you'd expect. A fun place to eat, especially appeali…

Cheap, short walk into the centre of the city. Basic single rooms are ok, with en-suite, though they are a little cramped. Could also do with new pill…

A friendly welcome and managed to get one of the few remaining rooms. They have a restaurant, bar and a couple of swimming pools. There's also a d…

The most clean, comfortable and enjoyable stay I've ever had. The hosts John and Marilyn are superb, and go out of their way to help you out. The brea…

You can arrange to be picked up at the airport (for free) by the hotel staff. They can also take you back to the airport, on your departure. My roo…

Great view of the rivers joining up and the atmosphere is really good. Happy "Hour" is from 5-7pm, with half price cocktails etc, beer for a $1 - no e…

Really friendly welcome and the rates are OK, especially considering what I'd paid in San Francisco. They have a wine tasting every evening 5-7pm and …

Very close to all the action, just up from where the trams get rotated on Powell St. My room was clean and quiet and the bed was comfy (not too soft, …

I've stayed here a couple of times, as it's pretty close to the airport- you get a free transfer (by taxi) back to the airport. The décor is diffe…

Really nice restaurant. Popular with the local business people, which is usually a good sign. I had the lamb souvlaki, which was juicy and tender. …

Really friendly owners (Korean, I think?) welcomed me. My room was clean and comfortable, though I did have to prop a chair against the door, as there…

Pretty much all you need in one place. Motel, restaurant and a pub. My room was very comfortable and clean. The staff are friendly, especially in …
