Accommodation Tips & Advice

Choosing a hotel that is right for your travel needs

In my opinion the best way to find and choose the right hotel is searching via the web. In the UK your choices range from 5 star to no star, independent to chain and bland to interesting. All I am sure would say that they offer the best value for money.

So what would I choose?

The Great British B&B

Why?

I'm sorry to say but I just hate those boring bland branded hotels?
I am fed up with these me too hotels popping up all over the UK ruining our countryside, towns and cities and decimating the landscape and destroying an institution, the Great British B&B.

Travel Inn, Premier Inn, City Inn, Golden Tulip, Novotel, Ibis, Travel Lodge yuck. All the same, no personality, no character and in reality no thought or concern about the customer. It's all about how best to line the pocket of the big wig at the top.
I want to see more done for the independent individual hotelier. Yes, sometimes the quirky B&B can just be down right dirty but one thing is for sure, they are never the same, they are never a me too and you will also be guaranteed an experience with real personality.
Save the Great British B&B and Guest Houses and stop wasting money with the branded robots.

So you decide put your money into the pockets of some big wig 'running' these large branded chains or invest in the individual.
