Blythswood Hotel Glasgow
by calum on Jul.10, 2011, under Glasgow Hotels
This is a hotel I had been looking forward to for a while and it certainly did not dissapoint. The Blythswood Hotel opened last year and has been renovated from an old building located on Blythswood Square in Glasgow. It is a fantastic place to stay. We booked in on a cold and wet Thursday night back in March. Room prices range from £120 to £1500. There was a deal they were running so that cheaper rooms were available on a Thursday. The booking included access to the spa and a full breakfast.

Hoxton Hotel

Last weekend I was attending a wedding in London with my wife. We asked around beforehand for suggestions of good hotels to stay at. The Hoxtons name came up so we checked out the website. That’s the first important part for me. If i’m thinking about booking a hotel and their website is great with lots of info and pictures then i’m usually on the way to being sold. (continue reading…)

As it’s the time of year where the weathers starting to get noticeably colder I’ve started to think about where to go on holiday to get away from the Glasgow gloom. I know that the summer only just ended but it’s good to plan ahead to make things as cheap as possible. I’m looking forward to getting out and about and reviewing more hotels around the world.

Macdonald Holyrood hotel review, Edinburgh

Date visited: May 2010
I had a joint stag and hen do to go in Edinburgh a few months ago. Trying to get a hotel in Edinburgh in May is not the easiest if left until the last minute like I did. So we went to Lastminute.com and used their secret hotel service.

I had wanted to visit the Witchery for years. Ever since finding out about it. The Witchery is a hotel on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh right next to the castle. A room for a night at the Witchery is not cheap at around £250. Is it worth it? Absolutely. My wife and I finally got a chance to go when we were given a nights stay as a joint wedding present.
