LOVED this hotel We stayed at this hotel on May 10, 2004. It was beautifuly decorated, clean and the staff was wonderful. I felt very safe in this area of the quarter and if I came back to N.O. this would be the only place I would stay.

Lovely lobby, good ambience The Doubletree at the Campbell Centre in Dallas has charm and character; values so often lacking in large hotels aimed at business travellers. The hotel boasts a framed collection of native American arrow heads and the lobby is decorated in a vibrant and tasteful way. There's a comedy club next door. I had a corner room with good views and high speed internet, while breakfast was hearty with a good range of choices. The staff seemed attentive and friendly and there was plenty of parking out front.

Listen to Trip Advisor!!!! We did a lot of research before going and wanted someplace that was in a good central location, and was not too expensive. Following the good reviews on TA, we made reservations at the Nob Hill Motor Inn. Everything said about this place is true. But the one thing that is not mentioned enough is the owners Frank and Judy. They not only run a great hotel, but they will help however they can to make your vacation great.

Nice, if a little old We stayed here in October for a weekend getaway. The rooms are nicely appointed, if a bit old, but our ocean view from the lanai was gorgeous. The lobby has a weird fishy smell that's hard to get used to, but the employees are all very nice. Great location, too.

"Stayed October weekend getaway. Rooms appointed, bit old, ocean view lanai gorgeous. Lobby weird fishy smell, employees nice. Great location."

perfect Mu husband and I were on a short layover in London and we stayed here for one night. We will be back!! Great location, it is only on one floor next to another hotel. Private, quiet, wonderful service and very spiffy decor! Look on the internet for good deals

lovely decor We had a quiet room on the top floor- we called it the penthouse. The decor was lovely and the glass lift well was amazing. It looked into the courtyard where breakfast was served.

great experience I stayed just after MArdi Gras. The rooms are so comfortable and unique. Not your cookie cutter hotel in a box! I went to the big Easy for the whole experience and this hotel was perfect. The staff was very nice and it is in a great location. I will definitly be back!

wonderful hotel We loved our stay at the chesterfield in late July 2005. Thoughtful concierge helped plan a theater trip , including dinner. rooms were decent sized and nicely equipped. Lovely breakfast with nice staff (included in our rate). good location a few blocks from tube and buses.the street itslef was quiet, but there were restaurants nearby in Shepherd market (many of them open sunday night, which we did not find in other nearby neighborhoods).We would stay there again in a moment.

Great hotel, fab location We stayed 4 nights at the Vivaldi last weekend and had a great time. The room was spacious very clean and comfortable, the location was great ( great for museums and sightseeing, right next to one of the main stations and on one of the main streets but they have very good sound proofing so you would never know!)There are a few decent eating/ drinking places literally over the road, built under the railway. a couple are German style and one is Italian - we ate at a couple of them and they were really good (you do get the thunder of trains every so often tho!)I would also recommend a meal at Dressler on the Unter den Linden (about 5 - 10 mins walk away) it's very nice and the staff are lovely.

VIEW ROOM IS A MUS The view rooms here are amazing. Request a high floor, looking out, all you'll see is water. Gives you that cruise ship effect. Rooms here are small but nice and comfortable. Also like most Kimpton hotels, it hosts a wine hour, in which they serve wine and beer complimentary.

Excellent Location The hotel is very conveniently placed and is only a two minute walk from the Duomo. The majority of the reception staff spoke good English and were always polite and friendly. The rooms are small but clean, the views are far from spectacular and the furnishings are basic. However, if you plan to spend most of your time out and about in Florence rather than in your hotel room, the Hotel Gioia proves excellent value for money.

Good Hotel Just returned from Hong Kong, where I resided five days at the Langham Place, inspired by the reviews on this site. I decided to stay at this hotel not only because of the overall favorably opinions but mainly because of the rapport between quality and price, which turned out to be excellent. For a good hotel with great amenities and services, it was reasonable. I am not a fan of huge hotels of this type, but I found that the service was maintained on all levels. I loved the spa and the outdoor pool which was big enough with an amazing view.

A Steal!!!!!!! Compared to the congestion, noise, cheeseball tourists and double rates at the Caribe Hilton and the San Juan Hotel, this place is great! Centrally located, friendly staff, and quiet rooms. If you want to eat, you can walk next door to the Hilton and use them for their restaurants, then walk across the street for ice cream. FREE internet service ands a great pool.

Great location across Arno River Hotel Silla is a great find across the river from all the main sights in Florence. Their customer service is top notch, they are always willing to answer questions, recommend a restaurant or reserve an entrance to a museum or tourist attraction. They provide free internet access in the lobby, and their breakfast is terrific! Also, enjoy a bottle or glass of wine outside on the terrace in the evening. It's generally quiet, but be aware that on a weekend evening, it can get loud as there are a few restaurants bars on the block where locals party. We had a great stay, and would return to Hotel Silla again.

Wonderful stay!! We stayed for 7 nights in the condos. Staff was very nice. Our rooms had great view of Waikiki Beach. We had our 10 month old with us and the extra large rooms enabled her to practice her walking without bumping into everything. Would definitely stay there again.

Green credentials This is a new hotel that claims a range of green features, some of which seemed to be stretching the point somewhat. However it was a pleasant stay with particularly firendly and helpful staff. Minus points were the size of the bedroom (small); a sliding door on the bathroom that didn't have any pretence at privacy; high bar prices ($14 for a glass of wine) and exorbitant parking charges ($37 per day) when there were public facilities on the same block (for $24 a day.)Overall, good but not exceptional enough to make me want to go back. Darrin, the bar steward would make me want to go back though, just for the entertainment value. He was a scream!

High marks to the Antiche Figure We were delighted to stay at this hotel. Location is very convenient to Venezia Santa Lucia train station and it was a great relief to get off the train, cross the bridge, and get to our hotel so fast. The reception staff was charming and very helpful. The room was very clean although not very spacious. Breakfast in the tables that face the canal was a big plus.

Elevator Safety Issues!! All three of the south bank of elevators malfunctioned the entire four days we were there! One group of guests was stuck in elevator #3 for over an hour and a half. My wife and I got stuck between floors twice in elevators #1 and 2 two days in a row when the electronics suddenly just went dead. After fiddling with the buttons it started up again each time after about five minutes. I believe these sorts of maintenance/safety issues are unforgivable in a hotel this expensive and we will not be staying there again!

Loved our stay!!!! Stayed at the Hotel Elysee for three nights and it was wonderful. The room was large for New York, very clean quiet, (a plus in midtown NY!) Staff was very helpful the continental breakfast evening wine snacks was an added plus!!

Wanted to leave 2 days after getting here Well, I am staying at the Bahia Principe right now I am leaving not tomorrow but the day after. Ive been counting the days. They say when you dont have anything good to say, dont say anything, so I wont say anything.

Staying Bahia Principe, leaving day after tomorrow, counting days, nothing good say.

Great place Before going I had read all the reviews posted on the site and I am glad everything they say is true. It is definitely worth staying at the Chancellor. Everyone is really helpful and nice. I tried several SF hotels and this is the only one I'll go back to.

"Great place before going read reviews site glad true. Worth staying Chancellor. Everyone helpful nice. Tried SF hotels only one back to."

Great value, friendly staff This was the first stop of our honeymoon, and we very much enjoyed our stay at Amstelzicht. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, and we found the room to be satisfactory and clean. This is by no means a luxury hotel, but if you are looking for clean accomodations that present good value in Amsterdam, I highly recommend this hotel. The stairs are difficult to negotiate, so I would not recommend the hotel to those with physical disabilities. Otherwise though, we had a fabulous time, and there is a great restaurant just around the corner from the hotel.

"Great value, friendly staff, first stop honeymoon, enjoyed stay Amstelzicht, staff welcoming, friendly, room satisfactory, clean, not luxury hotel, clean accommodations, good value, Amsterdam, recommend hotel, stairs difficult, not recommend physical disabilities, fabulous time, great restaurant around corner."

Great Location Shabby Room Although the Ambassador was well located,had a pleasant and helpful staff, and good food service, I will probably not stay there again. My single room was shabby with wallpaper peeling off the wall, a clean but threadbare carpet,and dated furniture. As a single traveller, I was only allowed one pillow on the double bed and one towel in the bath. The ventilation in the lobby was poor so the cigarette smoke was toxic.

a terrible experience The worst nightmare I 've ever lived. My wife got a severe food poison for which we've spent 3 nights in a hospital in punta cana. You'll probably say was just our bad luck but then why the hospital was full with ppl with the same problem and most of them from the same resort(melia caribe tropical)?Service is bad too and very few exceptions didn't change the overall impression. At the end a group of ppl from th hospital we've decided to send a formal letter through a lawyer to general manager of the Melia Caribe /Tropical.

Excellent location; good value for money Very friendly and competent staff; very clean; free wifi access to the internet is a definite bonus; truly lilliputian rooms (at least the single room I had) but then this is Amsterdam...; breakfast OK but nothing to write home about; thin-walled so earplugs are a must if you have no desire to listen to your neighbour's tv programmes; overall good enough value for money for Amsterdam (in absolute terms though 90 euros per night is really expensive for such a small room... it really is just for sleeping and showering ;) )

Great location A great location within walking distance of interesting sites. Not too far from an American Express office which came in handy. Did not try the full breakfast in the morning -- the muffins and fruit on the continental table were enough. Great advice on restaurants, appreciated the loan of an umbrella, and help with directions.

amazing holiday where the bad reviews come from for this hotel i do not know because i had a fantastic time in this lovely resort. the food was beautiful, the scenery was lovely and the staff are amazing, utterly amazing. they would get games of football going or volleyball or take you away to learn spanish or do a poolside game, the bar staff are all lovely, waiters in the buffet area were very hardworking where nothhing was too much hassle. all the differant workers here wear uniforms so you know exactly who to see about anything.the pool was great with balls supplied and goalposts in the pool and on the beach, from my room both the pool and beach were less than a minutes walk away. best holiday i have ever had

A Perfect base We have just returned from our first NY visit and stayed at the Casablanca for four nights, largely on the basis of good reviews. We were not disappointed. The staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms which I had read were small were no smaller than most city hotels ,Rick's Cafe with the complimentary breakfast, all day tea/coffee muffins newspapers and evening cheese /wine was an oasis of sanity and the location is very convenient (walkable for most first visit sightseeing). We would strongly recommend this hotel unless you want the fitness club/swimming pool/restaurant type experience of a large chain hotel.

Awesome hotel This is one of the best hotels I have ever liven in. We went there for our Puerto Rico leg of the honeymoon and the service the staff and the rooms were excellent. The private beach is awesome with the bar right next to it. I strongly recommend the steak at the restaurant along with their excellent collection of red wines.

Best Deal in Hong Kong For the US$89 I paid, I can't imagine a better deal in Hong Kong. The room was on the small side, but it was still fine for a couple. The decor was tasteful and everything was very clean. Very convenient location as well. On the strange side, the staff uniforms looked liked an 80' wedding band.

Great location, nice people We just got back from a 4-night stay in Room 4 on the top floor, and encountered a grand total of one mosquito in our room. No problems with that at all. The rooms could use some spiffing up, but ours was quite comfortable and certainly not ugly or tacky in any way. The location can't be beat, and the people running it were as nice and helpful as could be. Not a luxury property, but a good value.

Great Location, Great Hotel You won't find a better location in Amsterdam. This is right opposite the Central Train Station and within walking distance of every tourist spots. The hotel is clean and tidy and lovely amenities. My parents also stayed here when they visited too and loved it. I would definately recommend this hotel to anyone going to Amsterdam.

My room was Robbed at Riu Palace Punta Cana On June 7, 2006 two personal items were stolen from my hotel room between 11:45 AM and 6:30 PM, a cell phone and a digital camara. The individual who stole my personal items had a key and access to my room. When visiting the Riu Palace resort, make sure to lock all valuables in the safe and secure the key.

Nothing to write home about Was happy to get back to the land of the modern living after being in Fiji but was disappointed by the hotel in general. Check in took ages, hotel decor was dull and drab, our room stank of cigarettes. Breakfast was average. We would stay here again if we were stuck but it definitely wouldnt set your world on alight.

Disappointed by hotel. Check in took ages, decor dull, room stank of cigarettes. Breakfast average. Would stay if stuck.

Perfect location,trendy hotel We stayed her with friends [i booked the hotel] at the end of Feb. Location is perfect-so easy to walk to places. The rooms are immaculate if a little unusual with the decor and the layout of the shower and toilet but not a problem. Our room looked out to a brick wall and was a little on the dark side but our friends room had a massive window and looked out on the street which meant it was nice and light [ask for a room with a big window]A good breakfast- loads to choose from served in the tapas barWould def stay there agai

Great value for money! In crazy expensive London, it's hard to find decent, affordable accomodation. Our simple twin room here was small but comfortable - the staff accomodated our request for a quiet back room and it was nice. The breakfast was average. The hotel is centrally located and within walking distance of Victoria station, which makes the price even more remarkable!

Best views of Seattle and free parking! This is one of the best hotel experiences I have had while staying in Seattle! We booked a room on a higher floor and hd views of the city that where fantastic. The staff were very helpful and being so close to major road ways helped to get all around the area.

Wonderful stay in a great neighborhood November 30, 2007 We've just returned from a six day stay in London. The Sumner Hotel was just lovely. It was in an excellent location, close to the Marble Arch Tube, a selection of restaurants and shops, and nice walking tours. The room was very warm and inviting, and staff was extremely friendly and very helpful with directions and maps. We would no doubt stay here again.

Great Location Stayed at the Hilton Times Square sept 2-3 2005 with my husband and two teenaged sons. The hotel is well located and we would definitely stay there again. We were on the 25th floor facing 41st and found the room to be quiet. Many restaurants, cinemas, shopping steps away.

great location Stayed here for a convention at a reduced rate. Room had a high quality 42 inch HD TV and was very comfortable. Excellent location close to Moscone convention center, restaurants, cable car, and shopping. I really enjoyed Yerba Buena Garden right next to it and the bar with a terrific view on the 39th floor. My only complaint is that there are three sets of elevators going to different floors which was confusing for the first day or two. Guests have to transfer elevators to get from certain floors to other floors.

Great Value and Big Rooms We chose the Affinia 50 for a visit with our 2 kids (ages 9 and 15) and were very pleased with the room, location and service. We often stay in NYC for business, and have stayed in many hotels and we were very impressed with the size of the room, the nice decor and the overall comfort. The front door staff is very friendly and efficient. I would highly reccomend this hotel for the value.

Great bed - bad pool area This is a great place to stay for a night before or after a flight into SFO especially as there are great rates to be gotten online and/or via Priceline. The bed is absolutely perfect with nice crisp sheets!The foyer area and bar are beautiful. Went to the pool area and it looked a little run down. The pool is very small and the whirlpool looked like an oversized bathtub that someone would have in their home in the 1970's. We didn't stay to use anything.

ute hotel and great location I stayed at the QT during the Christmas - New years week of 2005 with my wife. We both really liked the design and coziness of the property. Also, it is located just a 30 second walk from Times Square. The staff is helpful and there are deli's a minute away. Overall, I had a great time here and would highly recommend this hotel.

Superb value The Upstalsboom Hotel Friedrichshain provides superb value to a visitor to Berlin. Located near the metro station, it serves as a good starting point to reach Alexanderplatz, Zoogarten, KaDeWe, Brandenburg Gate, Sony Centre, etc. The attached restaurant serves hearty breakfasts. There are trendy bars, pubs, and bistros nearby that are away from the usual tourist spots. The rooms are spacious and bathrooms are spotless.

One of the few good ones Great service, unbeatable location...where in Europe you have to struggle to fit into the 2x4 bathroom space, this hotel has a great bath, close to Leidesplein (1min walk) Tram 2/5 stop right outside, also close to all museums... bars/clubs... Best to book on priceline, select 4 star and put a price of $80-90/night, more than likely you will get this, its one of the very few 4 star hotels in AMS taht is on priceline. They even have a turndown service!! Enjoy!

great for golf Overall a great experience. We went strictly for golf. There are two courses, both well maintained and challenging. The club pro Robert is a great guy and an excellent teacher. The resort offers a golf package which is works out as well or better than a lot of places in fla and so carolina.

Wonderful Hotel We had a wonderful time at the Soho Hotel. The room was fantastic, the service was great and we couldn't have asked for more. Sandro the conceirge was extremely helpful and useful. Bravo!

Wonderful Hotel. Wonderful time Soho Hotel. Room fantastic, service great. Sandro conceirge extremely helpful. Bravo!

decent hotel As others have said, this place is nothing special, but for the price and location, it's actually very special. The actual room is a perfectly adequate budget motel room, except that our room had a view of coit tower, transamerica building, and the rest of downtown sf. From what I could see, other more expensive hotels near the area probably can't claim to have the view that we did. And that also means that you can walk to all kinds of great places and take the bus to others. Now if the kind people at the Columbus could only bring some sunshine and warmth to the city, then you would really have something.

Great location and service Perfect location on the waterfront. Great views of the city. Light , tasty and affordable meals at the downstairs tavern area and cafe. Loved the in-room computer, the plush bathrobes provided, and the gratuity-inclusive service. Very nice pool and exercise area. Near public transportation and all Boston attactions.

I loved this hotel This hotel was great. The room was huge by any standards, and the view breathtaking. The swimming pool although slighty cold had beautiful views and it was amazing seeing the lights of the city as you swam around at night!!Will hopefully get the chance to stay here again!!

Fabulous Hotel Great location and lovely rooms. A wonderful three night stay with my Husband and Daughter. I e-mailed requesting a quiet room and we were allocated a wonderfully spacious room on the 25th floor with an amazing view of the Chrysler!Concierge were also fantastic recommending and booking some excellent restaurants. Would recommend to anyone.

Great Hotel This is a great hotel, on arrival we were upgraded without asking to a delux room with great views of a wonderful city. The service here is second to none, the welcome drinks were indeed very welcome, although mini bar is very expensive. Rooftop bar is good for snacks and breakfast was excellent, will return to this hotel on next visit.

Fantastic Value After reading reviews on the Moore, my wife an I chose to stay here based on price and location. We were not disappointed. Two blocks from Pike Place for less than $70 before taxes is tough to beat. A clean room with a partial view of the sound adds to the value. Our only knock would be that there was no A/C, which could be a problem on a very hot day as the room gets full afternoon sun.

"Value reading reviews Moore, wife chose stay price location. Not disappointed. Two blocks Pike Place less $70 before taxes. Clean room partial view sound. Knock no A/C, problem hot day room full afternoon sun."

Heed noise warnings! I want to echo earlier reviews: Da House centrally located, inexpensive, and beautiful. The staff are friendly and helpful. It is, however, LOUD. There are interior rooms that are quieter, but they do not have windows that open to the outside. Da House is not for people who want to go to sleep before 3 am.

I love this hotel This hotel is fabulous. The location is great, the staff are lovely, helpful and so keen to help and make your stay memorable. The rooms are nicely decorated and i like the quirkly design which follow through from the rooms to the lobby area. I loved the lobby, it was cosy with the fire going and felt like someone's living room rather than a hotel lobby!!The free wine for an hour every evening was nice, you got to see everyone in the hotel and have a chat if you felt like it!!There are endless great resturants in San Francisco, really spolit for choice, especially if you like seafood!!Great hotel, great location, fabulous stay.

Beware the Annex Booked to stay in another hotel in Amsterdam in May 2003 but got changed at last minute by the internet booking company we used (think they may have gone out of business now as can't find them any more) to the Hotel Piet Hein. When we arrived thought nice hotel, only to discover that we had been booked into the hotel's annex which was a few doors down the same street. Absolute nightmare of a room, up three flights of very steep stairs, room very dirty, ripped curtains, mould in bathroom, stained carpets, etc. Didn't get our own key to the door of the annex but had to ask at main reception for someone to come along and let us in. In short, not somewhere I would reccomend. That said, things may have changed in the Annex as it was a few years ago, but beware when booking, make sure its the main hotel which is really nice.

Uber-fantastic-hotel Great weekend getaway to the Commonwealth. Fantastic bed, linens, pillows -- could have slept until check out. I swear there were 2 kinds of toilet paper as well -- quilted and regular. Never seen that before. A bit annoyed by the $34 a night for parking, but would happily stay again and again. Will hope to try the hotel's bars / restaurants next time!

Brought home bedbugs Beautiful setting, but vast hotel and a little impersonal. Okay beach on a separate island that you have to take a boat to (free, every half hour). The rooms are a little worn. The worst part was that when I returned home (after having stayed only at the ElCon) I brought home bedbugs. And that's not a joke.

"Beautiful setting, vast hotel, impersonal. Beach on separate island, boat required. Rooms worn. Returned home with bedbugs."

Great We went to the Ocean Bavaro hotel back in july this year. The staff were great and they worked really hard and long hours and always smiled. The food was nice but nothing over the top. Our room was amazing. We will go back there again in a few years time..

"Went Ocean Bavaro hotel July. Staff great, worked hard, long hours, always smiled. Food nice. Room amazing. Will go back years."

Heavenly stay My stay at the Westin Park Central truly was Heavenly. I can't remember a better nights sleep away from home. The room was clean, service was okay, but I can't get over how comfortable the bed was! And you must have a glass of the fresh squeezed orange juice in the morning. If you are looking for a good nights sleep and to wake refreshed, this is your stop.

Start Spreading the Muse... We stayed at the Muse a few weeks ago (Feb 08). It was a fantastic experience. The staff was great, the room was spacious (by NY standards) and the bed was very, very comfortable. You cannot beat the location of the hotel - a half block from Times Square and right in the middle of everthing. The price was reasonable (again, by NY standards) and we would return tomorrow if we could.

Stayed Muse weeks ago. Fantastic experience. Staff great, room spacious, bed comfortable. Location unbeatable - half block Times Square, middle everything. Price reasonable. Would return tomorrow.

Mass toerism After one week staying at Meridien Nirwana we moved for another week to Melia. As we arrived we were surprised by all the loudly people laying at the pool and the beach. It seemed we arrvived in Spain or Turkey. Really this hotel is not worth a 5 star rating. After one night staying we packed our bags and left the hotel.

Excellent Location I stayed at this hotel for pleasure using Marriott Reward points for 2 nights. The hotel is ideally situated in the Circular Quay area, only 3 minutes from the City Train stop from the airport. Circular Quay is also where the Opera House and the Ferries are located allowing easy access to all of Syndney, including the Rocks area, Harbor Bridge, shopping, Rocks market, and ferries to Manly and everywhere else. The hotel was also within easy walking distance of a number of restaurants in the Rocks area. The room provided was better than average for Marriott, with all amenities and nice shower.

great location Location is great, near corner of Orchard and Scotts. Club lounge is nice, although no hot offering at breakfast, which although ok for my wife, expect a hot offering at Grand Hyatt Grand Clubs (best is in HK). Stayed in a junior suite with wife and two kids (combo business and holiday). Great room, plenty of space, although bed is very firm (westin heavenly beds are clearly superior). Would stay agai

Great choice in the Quarter Stayed here for four nights and would choose this hotel again. If your looking for a clean room, near Bourbon Street, friendly staff, at a good price - this is the place. I also was in and out of a few other hotels were relatives were staying, if your looking for four elevators, and a large lobby, and all the stuff that comes with a large big name hotel - you aren't going to get it at the St. Marie. I'd recommend it as a great place to stay for a great price.

Disapointed Stayed here now lots of times this year and always loved the hotel and looked forward to staying in it. Sadly this time was a disapointment and although it's a good standard hotel it's no longer that great. Such a large range of hotels in Londn in this price band that you need that extra something to want to stay in them and this hotel has sadly now lost that. Now seems full of coch parties, meetings over breakfast tables and slightly cuttig corners. A real shame.

Great stopover We stopped over in Singapore on our way to Bali and decieded to stay at the Fullerton for our second time in 2 years. What we love about the hotel is the it is such are great contrast to what ever else is going on around it in such an elegant way. Everything from the bathroom amenities to the service is fantastic and we both defintaly love this hotel and cannot recommend it enough.

Location, Location, Location Located on Restaurant Row and near the major theaters, this boutique hotel has nicely furnished rooms (new plasma TV's)at an incredibly good price. Mike at the front desk is exceptionally helpful with restaurants and touring. Heater controls were hard to locate and there was little info available on use of phones, etc. but these were small oversights for such a comfortable stay. We had three rooms for five days (in both of the hotel's two buildings) and everyone was content. Would return in a minute.

ultra trendy but lame This ultra trendy new money hotel played loud dance/house music until 9pm every night and it was impossible to take any kind of nap or relax in the middle of the day. The hotel seemed very fake and tried to be hip. The rooms were very comfortable with nice pillows and comfy bed though. Overall, there are many better choices and I cant understand why anyone would want to stay there.

Left after 1 night I lasted one night - the room was tiny, barely lit, musty and just unbearable. Traveling on a student budget I didn't want to splurge too much and thought Mango would be decent - I ended up at the Green Isle inn next door which was MUCH better and only a few bucks cheaper

It'll be great when it's finished! We stayed here for one night at the end of March due to a mix up with our booking at the Eiffel Seine Hotel. We were most impressed by the quality of the decoration and fittings in our room - the large comfortable bed, the flat screen TV with internet access and the Versace bathroom. Loved the designer cups in the cosy breakfast room. The refurbishment looks to be almost complete as the reception area was being painted whilst we were there. Highly recommended.

Wouldn't recommend it. This Hotel looks great online. Although the price is right, it doesn't make up for the cleanliness. The shared washrooms were dirty, and most all the architectural details were very worn. I have stayed at much nicer places for the same price. I would not recommend this hotel.

first meet of Dallas It had a nice outdoor swimming pool outside. The rooms are big. The lobby is large enough to hold a hundred people. It was there that I met my America family.

Dallas, nice outdoor pool, big rooms, large lobby, met America family.

Very nice place to stay I stayed at this hotel for 4 nights. The staff was very pleasant and always eager to accomodate. The hotel was very well maintained. The food was excellent. It was nicer than most places I have stayed in New York- and the people were a whole lot friendlier. I would definitely go back

Nice place, stayed 4 nights, staff pleasant, eager to accomodate, hotel maintained, food excellent, nicer than most New York places, people friendlier, would go back.

The beds are hard!! If you don't like hard beds then this is not the place for you. The bed was like sleeping on a slab of concrete, which I suppose is OK if you like your mattress firm. Other than the horrid bed which totally spoiled my stay this place was modern, very clean and offered friendly service.

Beds hard. Not for hard bed dislikers. Bed like concrete slab. OK for firm mattress likers. Horrid bed spoiled stay. Place modern, clean, friendly service.

A great find We very much enjoyed our stay here. The staff were friendly and helpful, room was very clean and the hotel is in a great location. We particularly enjoyed the abundance of restaurants and bars in the locality and the fact that everything was within walking distance. We would definitely go back again.

Great find, enjoyed stay, staff friendly, helpful, room clean, hotel great location, enjoyed restaurants, bars locality, everything walking distance, would go back.

You will not be disapointed A very nice 4 star hotel. Me and my wife loved the swimming pools (especially the hot water with jakuji pool). Breakfasts were very good with lots of options. Staff was very polite and helpful. Also the location of the hotel was easy to travel to and from any place. A clean and nice place to stay with an average price.

Nice 4 star hotel. Loved swimming pools, hot water, jakuji pool. Good breakfasts, lots options. Polite, helpful staff. Easy travel location. Clean, average price.

Not for me Didn't really like this hotel due to the lack of en suite facilities, however we knew this before checking in. The room we had was very basic, had no safe, was tiny and despite being at the rear of the hotel, were subjected to noise during the night like there were dishes being constantly smashed. The hotel is well situated for Market Street and Powell Street and is fine if you're looking for an economy hotel and economy it certainly is.

Nice Hotel I stayed at the Peninsula in Sept for a weekend. The rooms we nice and clean - nothing spectacular. The restuarants at the hotel are good as well. Generally a nice western style hotel.

"Hotel stayed Peninsula Sept weekend. Rooms nice clean. Restaurants hotel good. Western style hotel."

Nice Room, Great Service We visited July 2004 - The room was aa great size, so was the marble bathroom. The staff was excellent, they made all of our reservations and arrangments. The roomdecor could use updating but all in all it was agood experience.

friendly and clean On our arrival at the hotel we were treated in a very friendly manner, given a load of sight seeing maps and brochures, and a general rundown of where all the sights and shopping centres were, which we found to be most helpful. The hotel itself although small was clean and served a lovely breakfast (buffet), it also had on line facilities and library with daily newspapers. A few minutes walk took us to rembrandt plein where a large choice of restaurants were to be found, also the shops on rokin and kalverstraat are nearby, making the hotel very central but not noisey. We had a great 5 days in Amsterdam made more enjoyable by the hotel staff who went out their way to make our stay as carefree and pleasant as possible. A big thankyou to all at the hotel for giving us a fine experience of Holland and Amsterdam.

Thankyou hotel, fine experience Holland Amsterdam."

Our worries melted away when we stepped through the door Making reservations at a hotel we had never seen gave my boyfriend and I a degree of pause. We were not sure what to expect. We could not have been more impressed with the atmosphere and service. The room was tidy and comfortable. If you go to New Orleans and you want to experince the style of the Quarter, skip the chain places and stay here. Say hi to Leonard for us.

Great views of the square My family spent a couple of nights at the Melia in October, our second stay there, and it was lovely. If possible, ask for one of the rooms that overlooks the Plaza Las Delicias. We had 2 rooms with balconies overlooking the beautiful fountain, the cathedrals and the hillsides around town. The restaurant, Mark's, is also highly recommended with some of the best food on the island. The hotel is a little worn in places and the breakfast was not much to be desired, but otherwise a great place to stay.
