Hotel review: Anantara Siam, Bangkok (Siam Suite) Bangkok, May 2018 Introduction After a beach holiday in Hua Hin I had booked a room for one night at Anantara Siam in Bangkok. I wanted to try a new hotel and this would be our second Anantara experience on this trip after checking out their sister property Anantara Riverside Resort about a week earlier. This time I booked a Kasara Club Room directly from the hotel's website. The price was pretty much the same everywhere, but booking directly got us an afternoon tea set for two at the lobby for free, and that sounded like a fun thing to try. Check-in and lobby We arrived at the hotel after 2pm, pretty close to a normal check-in time. Anantara Siam, The Lobby Our bags were immediately taken care of by the welcoming staff, and we were seen to the most luxurious lobby I'd ever seen. This really looked like a five star hotel to me! The hotel radiated elegance and style, and there...

Hotelliarvostelu: Hilton Tallinn Park

Hotelliarvostelu: Hilton Tallinn Park Intro Toinen käyntimme Tallinnan Hiltoniin ajoittui maaliskuun lopulle. Olin varannut huoneen kahdeksi yöksi kolmelle hengelle (King Deluxe with view) Hiltonin sovelluksen kautta paria kuukautta aiemmin kun Hiltonilla oli n. 20% ale käynnissä, ja Hilton Gold -status oli vielä maaliskuun loppuun voimassa. Saavuimme täpötäydellä Vikingillä satamaan n. klo 13 perjantaina ja suuntasimme ensi töiksemme vanhankaupungin laidalle Wok to Walk -ravintolaan lounaalle. Sieltä jatkoimme taksilla Hiltoniin, jossa olimme perillä n. klo 14. Executive-huone Sisäänkirjautumisen​ yhteydessä saimme huoneluokan korotuksen Executive-huoneeseen. Huone sijaitsi hotellin ylimmässä, 11. kerroksessa. Olin pyytänyt etukäteen lapselle lisävuodetta, joka on tässä hotellissa ilmainen. Sitä ei ollut vielä tuotu, mutta respassa sanottiin saapuvan tuota pikaa. Eikä mennytkään kuin vajaa 10 minuuttia niin huonepalvelu toi sängyn. Näkymä kaupunkiin oli aurinkoi...

Review: DoubleTree by Hilton Krakow Hotel & Convention Center

Review: DoubleTree by Hilton Krakow Hotel Introduction We decided to take a little family vacation with my mom included, and I ended up booking two Executive rooms in DoubleTree Hilton Krakow, Poland for 5 nights in June. None of us had been to Poland before and I had heard positive comments about Krakow. The DoubleTree Hilton is a new hotel and from the photos the pool area looked really nice and I thought it would be the most important factor for our daughter who's keen on swimming. We arrived by taxi from the airport after about 2 hours' direct Finnair flight from Helsinki. The taxi took about 30mins and brought us to the front of the hotel. Curiously there is also a Hampton by Hilton Krakow, which is next to the DoubleTree. Lobby and check-in From the outside the hotel looks a bit...dull, I guess. But once you enter, the experience transforms. At least it happened to us. The lobby is very light, there is open space and although not luxurious, it's n...

Review: Hilton Tallinn Park Hotel Introduction This is my personal review of Hilton Tallinn Park Hotel. A little autumn break was due so we decided to take a little family vacation in Tallinn, Estonia and try the new Hilton Tallinn Park, of which we had heard praise from my colleagues. I booked a four night stay in a King Deluxe Room with a view for three persons.  We took a boat trip in a completely packed Tallink Silja SuperStar on a beautiful, sunny Wednesday morning and arrived on time in Tallinn. The disembarkation took quite a while and it was a longish walk before entering the terminal. Outside were taxis and we took one to take us into the hotel. Hilton Tallinn Park Hilton Tallinn Park Lobby and check-in When you step in to the hotel, the first view is quite fabulous. The lobby is gorgeous and modern with a high ceiling and dark, beige and golden colors. In the middle there is a bar which looked awesome and seemed to invite clients at...
