Experience Lofoten from a SUP
Stand-Up Paddleboarding (SUP) has become extremely popular in recent years. Most people find SUP easy to master. It’s a fun and challenging activity for the whole family. It can also be adapted to put your skills to the test and is a perfect activity for a group of friends, with your partner or to find peace alone. Lofoten is known for its maritime world as a trademark. SUP offers you unique closeness to the Arctic environment and enables you to experience the nature both above and below the surface. With several places in Lofoten that offer rentals, courses and guided tours, all you need to bring to try SUP in Lofoten is a good mood. You can enjoy SUP all year round, either while paddling under snow-capped mountains in the winter or in the golden rays of the Midnight Sun in the summer.

Frequently Asked Questions about SUP in Lofoten:
SUP is an abbreviation for Stand-Up Paddleboard. You can use the board for surfing in waves but many use it on calmer water. The board has greater length, volume and width than a regular surfboard.

Flores is an island in the region of Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia and was our last stop before the island of Timor. There’s many ways to travel from island to island in Indonesia. We decided to go with the local ferries and busses all the way to Flores from Lombok. It took us 30 hours in total, with two different ferries and four different busses. The cost was in total 375.000 IDR pr. person.
We arrived in the city Labuan Bajo on Flores in the late evening and luckily enough we’ve booked the first night at a hostel. Labuan Bajo is the main city on Flores for tourism and where everybody goes to do the Komodo Island tour. Most places was fully booked, but we managed to find some good places anyway, which we can recommend:
Teus Hotel – A quiet place outside of the city center. They have four nice double rooms with private bathrooms and breakfast included. The price was 275.000 IDR. per night.
Centro Bajo Hotel – Big hotel, nice and clean and a good breakfast buffet. 350.000 IDR.
Sylvia Resort – Our luxury stay. With swimmingpool, private beach and a good restaurant. 600.000 IDR.
Siola Hotel – Local budget place right in the city center. Private rooms and with a simple breakfast. 150.000 IDR.
We also did the Komodo Island tour. You can choose everything from a one day trip on a big cruiser to liveaboard dive trips around the islands, sleeping in private cabins or on the deck. All these packages can easily be arranged from Labuan Bajo when you arrive. We chose a two day trip on a small boat, with one night sleeping on the deck. The price was 1.180.000 IDR Pr. person and all meals, drinks and fees for the nationalpark was included. There’s three islands to explore; Komodo and Rinca Island for spotting the komodo dragons and Padar Island for the most picturesque view over 3 beaches in different colours. We did short hikes on all three islands and did some snorkelling in between. A very good and memorable trip!
Other than the Komodo tour and one cave called Batu Cermin Cave, there’s not so much else to do around Labuan Bajo. You can also easily do a scooter trip out of Labuan Bajo to see the surroundings.
Driving through Flores is amazing. We had a whole month to travel east over Flores and did it mostly with local busses. There is so much to look at just through the window of the bus. First of all the beautiful nature - it’s not without reason Flores got it’s name, which means flower. The landscape is so green and lush. There’s wild nature, mountainranges and huge vulcanoes everywhere you turn your head. You’ll also drive through many small villages, with cows parked on the roadside, children playing and old ladies walking along the road with the mouth full of betel nut and laundry balancing on their head. It’s also normal to see families with two adults and three small kids on one scooter, or a truck packed to the edge with people in all ages, animals and vegetables.
The first stop on our travel through Flores was Ruteng, just four hours from Labuan Bajo. Ruteng has a number of sights close the city though Ruteng itself is not that interesting. You’ll find sites such as spiderweb-shaped ricefields, traditional villages and the cave Liang Buah, where they recently found what they call the Homo floresiensis – maybe the first human on Flores. We rented a scooter to get around and stayed for a few days in two different hostels.
Karya Hostel – Very local, very simple and very cheap! 75.000 IDR per night for a double room.
SBB Homestay – Small homestay with a very friendly owner, shared toilet, breakfast included and scooter rental possible. 150.000 IDR.
To go to the next city Bajawa, we took a Gunung Mas bus for four hours for 110.000 IDR pp. Bajawa is a nice small city with a good atmosphere, its walkable and there’s many local and western restaurants. Again we rented a scooter to be able to explore the surroundings on our own. A few kilometers outside the city you’ll find some of the best preserved traditional villages, Bena village is the biggest and the one most tourists visit, but there is many others in the area, like Gurusina village and others. They’re really worth a visit, and you can have a good talk with some of the old people who live there.
We stayed two nights in Queens Homestay in a very nice room with private hot shower and a good breakfast for 200.000 IDR.
We were so lucky to meet a local guy that worked as Ojek (scooter-taxi), who invited us to stay in his familys house. We talked a lot with him and he was so happy to invite us to come and stay in his house. His family lived in a small village called Langa outside of Bajawa, it was very simple but a good way for us to experience the real life of the locals. We ended up staying in their house for a whole week. This you will hear more about in a later article.
We travelled further on east with bus, to the city Ende. We stayed only one night, and can’t really say there’s much to do there. Next morning we took another bus to Moni, a small town in the mountains. The only reason to go there is the famous tricolor lakes at Kelimutu. It was one of the must sees for us, even though is was very expensive. (150.000 IDR pp. /225.000 on sundays) We rented a scooter to drive up the mountain, you can also hire a car or scooter with driver, or hike all the way. Scooter rental also got more and more expensive the further away we came from Labuan Bajo.
We stayed one night at Watugana Homestay, which we found on the indonesian booking app Traveloka. An okay room with private bathroom and a good breakfast for 200.000 IDR. Spend some time to look around for accommodation and food in Moni, it can be a quite expensive stay.
From Moni we wanted to go to Maumere on the northeast coast of Flores. We ended up driving with a private car, or what they call shared taxi, which you stop on the roadside and ask of a ride. It was a bit more expensive than the local bus, but much more comfortable and convenient. He drove us all the way to our hostel, 30 kilometer east of Maumere for 300.000 IDR.
We found the accommodation online; Sunset Cottage – A small bungalow with private bathroom and a good bed 10 meters from the black volcanic beach. Very calm and quite with pancakes and coffee for breakfast for 230.000 IDR pr. night. We really needed a place to relax and work on the website, so we stayed here for ten nights before new adventures waited for us in Timor.
Flores is just so stunningly beautiful and we will really recommend you to go and see for yourselves, and do it soon before all the other tourists also realize this ;)

Club Lounge has limited offer and no wine and cheeses and cold cuts throughout the day - food selection mostly bread and pastries and the usual coffee beverage, juices and soft drinks.
By far the best view ( Forbidden City) from our room out of all the hotels we stayed at during our holiday in China and Japan.
Great location, beautiful hotel. Staff really wants to help out.
There is a construction site next to the hotel. Also the facilities mentioned in booking included spa - which was in renovation during our stay (something that wasn’t mentioned anywhere). The hotel scheduled spa treatment for me elsewhere- but when I got to the other spa (in a taxi by my own expense) they had no idea I was coming.
The spa is closed for almost 2 weeks.

Year Purchased: 2014
About the owner: I live in Atlanta and Lake Hartwell is my getaway out of the city. I immediately relax when exiting off of 85 knowing that relaxing view from the deck is just a few minutes away! I grew up in the Midwest, went to college in Charleston, SC and spent years traveling abroad and living in Europe. I have stayed at many VRBOs and know what it takes to make guests feel at home.
Why the Owner Chose Hartwell, GA, USA:
Lake Hartwell is less than 2 hours from Atlanta, but feels like a world away from the traffic and congestion. The lake is calm, quiet, and really feels like a vacation where you can relax unlike some of the lakes that are closer to Atlanta and feel just as busy on the water as you do on the highways. I highly recommend seeing for yourself why Lake Hartwell is the perfect escape.
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin:
The expansive deck with stunning view of the lake gets me every time. It's an easy stroll to get to the dock and there's plenty of yard space for activities, hammock naps, and dogs to play. Parking is easy, the home is quick to find, and it's close to a boat ramp if you bring your own boat. The firepit is perfect for evenings and the home is an excellent layout for entertaining and spending time together.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Hakim These are the days of miracles and wonders
From: AbdulHakim Al Raisi
To: Four Points by Sheraton Bangkok
I am writing to express my appreciation for the quality of service you offered me the days of my stay at the Hotel. Despite the many offers I received from other hotels, I decided for you because of the unbeatable deal you offered me.
It was a good decision; I enjoyed the peace and quiet I needed, offered in all the facilities of your hotel. This definitely added to the excellent service of the staff members they were absolutely outstanding. They were highly skilled, professional, compassionate and absolutely delightful individuals. I won't soon forget the wonderful care I received from them includes but not limited to housekeeping, Bellboys, Bartenders,Waitresses and kitchen staff. You are a great team and should be very proud of yourselves. I especially liked the way you smile all the time and fill in for each other when the assigned person is busy with another guest.
I would not forgive myself if I didn’t try to write to thank you. But I don’t’ think any words could possibly be adequate to express my feelings or gratitude to all of you. How do you thank a person for the excellent job? It’s impossible
I will definitely recommend your hotel to friends and family, and I’m sure I’ll be back on vacation. I hope to get the same quality of service when I return. Thanks again, see you soon.
Thailand should be proud of The Four Point by Sheraton Hotel,
Thank you and God bless you All.

Rated 4 out of 5 by JohnL38 Enjoyable stay
Nice hotel located one block from the busy street which is an advantage as it is quieter! The staff is excellent as was the buffet breakfast. The only disappointment was there is no SPG lounge and no manager reception and drinks in the bar are very expensive. A free drink or discount would be most welcome. Great location near subway and sky train. Concierge service was great!

Rated 5 out of 5 by shoelessjoe1963 Full Service... plus!
We've stayed at 4 Points a few times but through circumstances never when an SPG Platinum. Finally managed to get my act together - or not, read below! - and checked in at short notice this weekend. K' Fon on the Front Desk #Manager?# was helpfulness personified when it proved awkward initially to book the room with points and all well with the stay... they have even managed to locate the book I treasured but left behind when checking out in a hurry this afternoon.
Best bit though... my pet hate in this city is the issues with metered taxis. Asked for a taxi on to our next destination and hey presto, they managed to get one out from the car park #I think!?!# immediately and a metered and prompt arrival at the next stop. If you know Bangkok, you will know how hard that is... well done team!
PS Also managed to finally get time for a beer in the Beer Vault... had again been meaning to do that for ages and ages so, ahem, took full advantage last night. Good value and great beer... plus service with a smile and Mrs D loved the free popcorn!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Mylo Friendly, Good Location & Value for Money
I have been returning as a guest to this hotel quite frequently. My experience with this hotel started in year 2011 when I was searching for nice affordable SPG hotel in Bangkok. This hotel will always be the first in my list whenever I travel to BKK. In year 2011 alone, my stay here might hit close to 10. One of my major contributors to my Platinum status! *laugh*
Guest services are excellent; they do remember when you return (of course, it depends on your returning time gap). They are polite, warm and arm with sufficient information to assist us on whatever we need.
As for the rooms, I consider it OK, spacious. The food, well.. no complains at all. I have tried both their in-room dining and cafes. I love their welcome gift cookies, it’s delicious! (especially the one with blueberry toppings)
Nevertheless, I dislike requesting for toothbrush each time when I check in. I hope the management team can consider putting this necessity in place for all guests. On cable tv… hmm.. I cannot receive all channels. I remember highlighted this once and when I return for the second time, the same problem persists. Wifi coverage, besides having some blind spots, I think the setting was not configured properly (maybe I’m wrong) for certain applications on mobile. (one of the applications: Whatsapp)
As for Platinum benefits, 4Points do have a lounge located in Lobby. The bar is somehow not too spacious but the setting is nice. They do serve a variety of snacks and they have a popcorn kiosk there, so grab a cup or two if you are heading back to your room for a movie.
Breakfast is good with quite some choice to choose from.
Do take note that they have a SkyBar at level 8. Nice place but can get pretty warm if you are sitting at the wrong area. I’m not sure the same band remains but it was good when I was there last year.
The hotel is located a few minutes away from BTS Asok and Terminal 21 shopping mall. The hotel offers free shuttle.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Charleyman1 Staff is outstanding
As always your Staff provides excellent service at the Four Points Bangkok. I do want to say a few words for your Guest Service Manager, Meaw. I had a situation which she addressed effective, efficiently, and professionally. I have the highest praise for her. Whenever I visit, and when Meaw is there, she always addresses me by name (how she remembers, it is beyond me but I feel good about this). I have also observed her with other customers. She is a good listener and looks them in the eye when they talk. What I respect about Meaw, even though there are many customers who stay at Four Points, she makes you feel you are the only customer when she speaks to you.

Rated 3 out of 5 by boyakasha Everything else was great......BUT!!!
The front desk staff who checked me in was far too rigid about the complementary in-room internet service and it seems he had to strictly oblige to rules and regulations. He said to me that I had only booked the 1st and 2nd night of my 4 nights stay through the SPG website, but my 3rd and 4th night booked by a travel agency. He insisted not to give me complementary in-room internet throughout my 4 nights stay, but just for my 1st and 2nd night only. I would expect the in-room internet service would also be complementary for my 3rd and 4th night on an ex-gratia basis just to make guests like me feel more valued as a SPG gold member. Unfortunately, I had no choice other than to accept it as he started telling me previous cases of SPG platinum members who had booked through a third-party website still couldn't get the complementary in-room internet, blah blah blah…..
After the 1st and 2nd night, I actually called the front desk again wondering when will be the cut-off time for my complementary in-room internet access. This time the front desk staff who answered the phone told me I am a SPG gold member and just told me I can continue to use it for free. Then I thought ok and left the hotel for some shopping without thinking too much. However, when I tried to re-connect to the internet after I returned to my room, I was logged out and had to enter my details again, so I called the front desk once again just to make sure I can still use my internet without charge. Then they said they will call me back in 5-10 minutes. When someone called me back, she then told me my complementary in-room internet was only valid for the 1st and 2nd night, I was extremely annoyed by this time as I had to explained myself all over again, and informed her another front desk staff told me I could continue to use it for free when I called a few hours ago, and I asked them what kind of game are they playing at, due to my tone of voice, I suspected that she knew I was quite upset and she eventually told me just to use it and they will take it off the bill if this charge showed up when I checked out (and they can't even be sure if it will show up on my bill, what the hack...!). By this time, I can’t stop thinking about the rule regarding the complementary in-room internet, it surely can’t be that rigid as the front desk tends to bend it a few times backwards and forwards during my encounter. Overall, everything else I experience in the hotel was absolutely up to par, so it is a shame about the downfall concerning my in-room internet.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Chris78 Lackluster performance...
There are numerous SPG properties in Bangkok. Each has their charms. I decided to visit the Sheraton 4 points.
I read the reviews and it seemed to have many positives.
1. Location is good.
2. Staff are friendly and are obliging (this has been fairly consistent at all SPG Bangkok properties).
Areas of improvement:
1. Platinum benefits gone awry
a. I was given 3 choices for my amenities - local gift, breakfast or the 250 points. I was interested in what the local gift was but was told there were none left. Tad disappointing. Perhaps staff can be taught to set expectations. If you don't have a welcome gift. Don't tell the customer that you can choose it.
b. I appreciate any upgrade is a kind gesture of the hotel to customer loyalty. Given this was my first visit I realized I might not be given an upgrade but nevertheless I was hopeful given there were suites available on the internet for sale (even post checking-in), I was told the hotel was not busy and I checked in around 5pm. Didn't get one and was given a standard clean, modern room.
However, upon entering the room I found I could hear external sounds of building works and street traffic. As I looked at the window door I immediately knew why. The top hinge was broken which prevented the door from closing properly and hence sound proofing. I called to ask for a room change citing the noise. I was told they would look into it. I received a call later informing me security had looked into it but could not find the noise and they would send someone up to my room to check the noise. I must say I did not need a 3rd party to verify this.
I appreciate the move into a corner room which was much larger and perhaps wished I had been given this room at the outset.
c. Perhaps I didn't hear but I was also uninformed about the complimentary Platinum Happy Hour at check-in. I called Guest Services to ask if there was a club floor at 6.30pm and was only then told about the Happy Hour.
A lovely little bar. There was a selection of 3 snacks but none had information as to what they were. Added to that, it's quite dark in the bar and the food area is not well lit so it's hard to see what the food is.
2. Room cleanliness
Finding hair in the bath tub and on the shower wall that isn't yours in never a joy. Yes it's easy to clean and wash away but really?
The shower wall is also chipped (rough edge that could cut) and the floor has a small build up of dirt and the metal furnishings display rust.
One of the bed's sheeting displayed 3 large black/brown marks.
3. Noise in the corridors
Don't be put off when walking down the corridor and you're able to hear babies crying from inside the rooms you are passing. I was told you can't hear such noise from inside the rooms only in the corridors.
4. Hallway scent machines
On my floor there was an air freshening machine except it was clearly unplugged and not in use. If so it could have been removed.
Take away: As an SPG member you have many choices here in Bangkok.

Rated 4 out of 5 by SAB77 A very comfortable property
I stayed here for one night at the beginning and end of my week's holiday in Thailand. I was very pleased with my two short stays. Everything easily met my expectations. I didn't have time to use the pool, but I did take a look there and liked what I saw. I enjoyed the Beer Vault on the ground floor, friendly and relaxing with a great choice of beers. I would most definitely stay here again. Make sure you request an SPG floor as I was on a different floor my first stay, but was on one for my second stay. Finally, with the set up of the shower, it's impossible to take a quick shower without getting your hair wet. It's insignificant to me, but might not be to others.

Several years ago, this was my first experience staying in Thailand... it almost feels like home when I walk in... staff are excellent at everything they do, quick, courteous, knowledgeable, helpful... the facilities & food are great! I would like to see the gym expanded, but i can always go short distance to True Fitness if i like. also would like to see a washer/dryer combo in larger rooms...

Rated 3 out of 5 by JY19 Staff Needs More Initiative
I stayed in room 511 and there is a leak on the ceiling. Maybe due to air con. A puddle of water was on the floor, I took a towel to put over it. And I later forget about it.
2 days later it happened again, this time I am not so lucky, I near had a fall.
I am still staying there now, I will tell the manager tonight.
What I am trying to say is that when I put the towel on the floor in the first instance, the staff would already know that there is something wrong and should take the initiative to make a check. But they did not and it happen again....

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kozy1 Great hotel, great experience
I spent six nights at this hotel, 3 paid and 3 with points. The staff was fantastic, greeting me with enthusiasm despite my 2am arrival. I was immediately offered a Gold perk for my stay and chose free internet. They gave me a quiet, clean, modern room in the Garden Wing. The decor was pleasing and the room in excellent condition. It became my oasis in steamy, fragrant, hustling Bangkok. The hotel is very geared towards English speakers, including TV channels, which helped me feel even more comfortable. Every single staff member was friendly and helpful. Truly, I couldn't have asked for anything more during my stay!
February 17, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by ckt1228 Definitely exceeded my expectations! Beats 2 other Starwood hotels in the vicinity!
I had read about the Courtyard Wing when I booked, so I was pleasantly surprised that the check-in staff had assigned me a room there upon check-in! The hotel is very quiet, even though it is just steps away from the main Sukhumvit Road. I like the fact that it is a short stroll to the BTS Station and Terminal 21 the new shopping mall. The staff was very enthusiastic too.The room is modern and comfortable, everything works. All this at a competitive rate! I have recommended this hotel to my friends!

Rated 4 out of 5 by CaptainHook Very Good!!!
Reasonable price, clean and comfortable room, and kind staffs made me happy during stay at hte hotel from 31 Aug to 2 Sep, 2012.
Also the hotel is located near BTS Asok station and MRT Sukhumvit - only 5 minutes from BTS Asok station on foot, only 2 minutes by free TukTuk offered by the hotel.
What's more, Free WiFi in the room was fantastic. The hotel charge 450 Bhat WiFi fee a day. But during staying, the hotel offered it for free.
Delicious breakfast, too.
One thing that I want to request is better Kimchi. It was not good. I want more tasty.
One more, Amenities aren't so good as I expected.
Except those things, I really enjoyed Four points by Sheraton in Bangkok.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Philip Nice staff but poor hardware
The hotel is at a very good location which is just a 3-minute walk from BTS and MRT.
Rooms are nice and comfort, but I was hurt by a small plastic fragment which was next to the bed. Housekeeping staff should pay more attention on that.
Internet connection was out of service suddenly and it is totally unacceptable for unable to reach in-room. Staff provided immediate action on changing rooms but finally it changed 2 times for a room only have poor reception on Wifi.
Suspension of electric supply on the date of departure was only informed in room after I checked in, but not well informed when I had the booking.

Rated 4 out of 5 by WoAi Perfect Location
This was my first time staying at Four Points and I was very impressed with the staff and the hotel itself. It was nice to be asked what type of room I preferred (close to elevator or in the corner) and the room itself was very clean and comfortable.
The hotel's location is also exactly as I like it - right in the middle of all the action, convenient for shops (Terminal 21 is virtually next door) as well as a good choice of bars and restaurants. Asoke BTS station is right there so it was easy to get around (Siam Paragon is just 3 stops away).
The proximity to the red light area of Nana might put some families off, especially late at night, but it didn't bother me at all.

Rated 3 out of 5 by David65 Not really up to SPG best standards
My first room (621) had an annoying humming noise coming from the air-con and I reported this to reception staff when I went out for a walk. On my return the staff member (male) reported that "the engineer" had checked it and corrected the fault. On my return to the room the humming was still very apparent (I thought this could be a problem with the compressor - which might soon burn out) and a different member of staff (female) changed my room (to 607). 2nd room OK apart from a very squeaky chair which staff said they would fix or replace (but never did). Towels very thin and small for a 4 / 4 1/2 star hotel.

Rated 3 out of 5 by MiguelThai Sewage Problem
Stayed here in Jan 2013. The 6th floor of the "Garden" wing seems to have had a serious issue with their plumbing, causing a very foul odor in the rooms. When we first checked in we thought perhaps getting some air into the room would help but after a night it didn't.
Once we asked to change, the staff were very accommodating and got us onto a different floor and all was good. However, no one, especially a loyal SPG member, should have been placed on the original floor to begin with.
I also despise the fact that the hotel charges for wifi access. There are a large number of hotels in the near vicinity that provide free wifi and charging 470 baht per day is highway robbery.

Rated 4 out of 5 by wbm1990 A Nice Four Piont Hotel
I have had a nice 3-night stay in this Four Point hotel Bangkok. Hotel location is great, and lobgy, room, etc are all nice. Hotel staff, front desk, concierge, service center are genrelly friendly, willing to offfer help. House-keeping is also doing well. Room is spacious. The only issue with my room 615 is the working area is too dark, work light and lamp are pretty dark, and my eyes got tired. If working area inside the room is more bright with more light, it would be better to me. Anyway, this is good fourpoint hotel I like to stay next time. Hopefully, to get a better-working-area room. thanks!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bobbo Great public areas.
Third time I stay at this Hotel in less than 2 years. Best thing about the Hotel is the way they manage to keep very high standdard of the hotel staff. Still very friendly yet proffessional. This time I brought on 5 other parties to this Hotel and they were all also very satified with their stay. Very nice to start the evenenings off at the "Beer Vault" pub with great atmosphere and generous offers. Very nice poolarea and rooftop bar/terrace. Please keep up the creative arrangements and we will keep comming. Very good location close to the BTS. Lobby area could be nicer and main restaurant seems very boring and lacks any kind of atmosphere. But other than that this is my abosolute Bangkok favorite.

Rated 5 out of 5 by NickatSydney Weekend in Bangkok
This is my second stay at this hotel on Sukhumvit Road. I had an excellent experience earlier in the year so I returned for a transit weekend stopover in Bangkok. and stayed in one of the suites. Great location and exceptional staff who go out of their way to make your stay a pleasant experience. Minor disadvantage in regard to access is that the hotel entrance is on a side street, but this also provides a bit of isolation from the 24hr hustle and bustle of Sukhumvit Road. I rate it an overall five star experience based on value for money (compared to other hotels nearby).

It was my first stay there and I was on my business/meeting trip. The room was so comfortable and everything was in good order. The room decoration and it colors made me feel comfort and relax. Staff were all very attentive. They were always ready for me and for whatever I want during the stay. The hotel is located in center of Sukhumvit. Easy to go anywhere and close to BTS station. The Eatery resturant is also good with food and service. The restaurant deco is of my favorite. It's very cozy and comfort.
Highly recommend the place to everyone.

We spent 3 nights, 25-28 Sept, at the Sheraton 4 Points Bangkok and loved every minute. Especially nice was being able to lay in a hot bath and watch movies on TV! The bed was indeed Heavenly and the show a pure delight. The restaurant is great and we did room service on our last evening, it was EXCELLENT! The Hotel is close (5 minute walk) to some major shopping outlets, the Subway station and the Sky Train station and there are some nice 'local' restaurants nearby also. The staff at 4 Points exceeded our expectations, providing information on the better sights to see, and some low cost options for getting around Bangkok.
We would like to return to Bangkok again and will definitely stay at 4 Points again!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by TomL very helpful staff
As always, the staff is friendly and helpful. They can help you find locations and arrange for a taxi for you.
There are 3 internet computers available for guests, but they are often occupied by kids.
Making a reservation on the SPG site can be annoying. The list of rates does not indicate which rates are paid in advance and non-refundable and non-changeable. It is necessary to look up the terms and conditions for each rate to find out which ones are non-refundable.
In November 2011 the breakfast buffet was limited due to low occupancy from flooding conditions north of Bangkok.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Shibb Great location, staff, happy hour and more
I just returned from a 2 week stay in Bangkok, where I hopped across several different hotels, both brands and chains. This location had my favorite breakfast of any, bar none. Everyday some delicious Thai treats, plus all of the standards, great ham, etc. I would probably put this hotel as the best value of any I visited.
The Happy Hour in the Beer vault for Platinum members was also outstanding, again with a very friendly staff. The only things I would say could be improved would be longer pool hours in the evening, so I didn't have to choose between an evening swim and happy hour, and a bit more modern equipment in the fitness center.
thanks to the people of the Four Points for making my trip a great one!

As expected a nice, comfortable, clean room with everything you require.
Good breakfast and nice spacious and light environment.

My second and not last stay here.
Only one complaint and its not particular to this hotel, yet again I was unable to use my suite upgrades and no doubt these will expire and I will not have the benefit from them.

Because my wife and I travel with our pet dog, our lodging choices are limited to pet-friendly properties. Columbine Inn was a pleasant choice and rather economical for Estes Park. By that I mean to say Estes Park is, overall, a priceir tourist town. So, the rates at the Columbine Inn were economical for Estes Park, but they would have been over-priced had this hotel been in, say, Fort Collins.
The same gentleman who took my telephone reservation, handled the check-in and handled all of my inquiries about the locale was also the owner, and whose name totally escapes me. He was very helpful with his restaurant recommendations and local driving directions.
The hotel itself was a 1950's style motor court with some pretty garden areas and gazebo. Had the evenings been a tad warmer, an evening in the gazebo would have been a wonderful way to relax after an active day in the nearby Rocky Mountain National Park. The outdoor pool was already out-of-commission for the season. The lobby/lounge was cozy (small) but with large windows and mountain vistas. The breakfast buffet didn't have many options, and it was mostly pre-package items. We just supplemented the limited choices with groceries we bought on our own.
The room decor was more like a B&B than hotel. Small sitting area w/ TV separted from the bed. Perhaps a bit cramped, or cozy, depending on your perspective. The room was clean and furniture in good shape, albeit older. While some people might criticize the furnishings as dated, (as in suburban family room circa 1974), the feel that we we were in a guest room in someone's house, rather than a hotel, was what we enjoyed most about this property. The room came with a mini-frig, which we put to good use. The only maintenance issue was with TV reception. Not every channel came in with that HDTV clarity we now all expect.
The hotel is on one of the major roadways near the edge of town. Traffic made getting into and out of the hotel a pain at times, and it was too far to walk into central Estes Park. However, several restuarants were within easy walking distance. And we were able to see some of the local wildlife right on the hotel grounds, including elk and mule deer.
This hotel is probably best for couples who are in Estes Park for activities other than spending alot of time in their hotel. But if you want to avoid "resort" rates and just want a comfortable, basic room, the Columbine Inn would be a good choice.

Two Story, 5 Bedroom Penthouse on Tamarindo Beach- New

- Minimum stay:3 nights

- Wheel chair accessible:Yes
Tamarindo house description
When the builder of this condominium wanted to create for his wife a lasting testament to his love and esteem in which he held her he had designed and constructed Roma, a masterpiece of architecture and design that has the look and feel of a Roman palace. However it is on Tamarindo Beach in a tropical paradise where the guests can walk to everything. When you move through Roma you feel like it was created from great inspiration. Every furnishing and decorative object feels like it was selected after much consideration and it looks like it belongs where it is. The marble staircase when you first enter is a work of art. It is not a place you would expect to stay on a holiday. It is, let's say, spiritually appealing. This is 5,000 square feet of mystery where I wondered with each step what would be the next surprise its creator wanted an explorer to see. Two immense terraces on each floor provide you with views you will never forget of the ocean, mountains and coast. You have an aura of tranquility knowing that you have made a thoughtful choice for a much needed escape from the pressures of everyday life. Pura Vida- you are on top of the world and the incredible vistas add to the the escape you and your family and friends were looking for. Now for a relaxing soaking in the incredible spa on one of the balconies. Feels good as your lovely wife and children join you. You start to understand the love and devotion that meant to fill this sanctuary. We invite you to come and experience romance and peace in this very special place.

Joel is the BEST!
Joel is the BEST!
I just wanted to take the time to write a review about Joel personally. A true service professional, Joel gives 100% to ensure that his guests have a fantastic stay. He is responsive, reliable, and effective. He was more than willing to help arrange any and every detail of our stay - whatever we needed help on, he could do it! He arranged transportation for our large group, provided several recommendations for local activities, offered to coordinate each activity, and even arranged for us to have a chance to swing by the local grocery store on our way into town (on the transportation he arranged!). His heart is in Tamarindo and this business - you can tell this the minute you speak with him about the area or the property. Cheers, Joel! Thanks for a wonderful visit.

PROPERTY THAT WILL NOT DISSAPOINT!!
PROPERTY THAT WILL NOT DISSAPOINT!!
This was the first time that I rented a property on VRBO and wasn't sure what to expect. I was thoroughly impressed with this property. In person, the property looked like the pictures on the site. The location was right across Tamarindo beach and had high security for the safety of the guests. Each morning before we start our day, we would get great costa rica coffee and juice at the local juice bar around the corner. I came here with 7 girls for a bachelorette party and Joel was so accommodating and helpful. I literally called him daily and whatever request we had he tried to help us and he made sure our stay was memorable. The location of this property is near the center and everything is walking distance. We ate at the restaurants Joel recommended but also loved the food at the local "sodas" around town. My girlfriends and the bride to be had an amazing time and would recommend this property to anyone!

This place was great for our family vacation, we have 9 adults and 4 small children. We had everything we needed, and the condo is cleaned daily which was perfect. The pictures are all very accurate and the 3 patios are amazing. Sunsets are the daily highlight on the top level deck. Tamarindo is a great little town for walking around and just hanging out. The beach is perfect, the restaurants and shopping are plentiful. Our favorite place for breakfast was Nogui's, lunch was Lola's about a 30 minute drive south and dinner was El Pescador. All 3 were on the sand with amazing views. Joel was very attentive with checking us in and giving us good advice about the area. And if you need something or there is a problem he will get it taken care of. We highly recommend this property.

Manager response: Thank you for the kind words. This is a new Listing that is a one of a kind 5 bedroom 5 bathroom 5,000 square foot Penthouse right on Tamarindo Beach. It is elegant with lavish furnishings and we furnish a housekeeper. This property has a large all-tile pool with a waterfalls and cabana and is gated. Out the gate and your on the best beach in Costa Rica. It's affordable and a 5 star location where you walk to everything.
Another awesome week in Tamarindo!!!
Another awesome week in Tamarindo!!!
This is our 2nd vacation at one of Joel’s locations in Tamarindo. Where do we start. We were just there at “Roma” and were told that our group of 10 were one of the first guests in this place. Let me say to start that we have been in accommodations comprised of houses and condos all over the world and these digs would be hard to beat for their splendor. Three immense terraces with fantastic views, 5 bedrooms, high ceilings, wonderful furniture, 3great art and arty objects everywhere and nothing seemed out of place. Everyone remarked about the abundance of space. This huge Penthouse was a work of art and architecture. Nobody asked for these comments and we all concurred this place is the cat’s meow. We were given a housekeeper ,Evela who wouldn’t let us lift a finger. She also cooked divine local fare a few times. The pool in the complex was special; huge, all-tile with an amazing waterfall that feels like a massage when you stood under it. The property was right in the middle of Tamarindo, in a gated community next to Tamarindo Beach. we didn’t need a car to get to anything. Let us say this about our host for the last 2 trips to Tamarindo. He knows food; the places he sent us even the coffee shop Sophias were superb. We were not just given keys like everyplace else, he checked us in personally and told us where he thought we might want to go. We called him once at 11pm, he answered our question and we thought that was impressive. Last but not least we thought it was very good value. We are planning another trip back for more days in January.

Our Tour of Loire Valley Begins In Paris
Our first day with Viking began Wednesday early in Paris after our overnight flight on Air France.. The highlight of the first day was getting to see our friends Chantal and Michel for dinner out. They are just now boarding a Princess Cruise.
The hotel in Paris was Le Meridien Hotel near the Arch de Triumph. Next day Thursday started at 5:30 am with a wonderful breakfast provided by Viking River Cruises. If you left hungry it was your fault. While we were enjoying that, Viking was worked behind the scenes picking up our bags for transfer to the bus. Service from Viking has been 1st class so far. We gathered with 14 other couples for a 3-day tour of the Loire Valley, visiting Chateaus and Cathedrals and then onto the River Cruise from Bordeaux next Saturday.

Myself and my wife Valentina rub the two hotels between us.
The Allargue, locally known as Briggies, is small with stunning views over the Cairngorm mountains, river don and Corgarff castle.
The Coulquhonnie is a bit bigger and livelier, overlooking the river don and just outside Strathdon village - only took this on march 2016.

Last-minute holidays not costly
If you have not planned your trip in advance for the summer vacation and your child is grumbling do not fret, travel packages are still available.
You will have to pay more for a holiday in India but foreign tour packages are still going without the last-minute premium.
“You can even pack tomorrow. The visa will take time. We are fully geared to meet any last-minute rush,” says Veena Patil, managing director, Kesari Tours. “For overseas travel we have blocked airline seats and hotel rooms well in advance and inventories are available,” she adds.
For domestic holidays, travel companies do not include air or train fares in packages. Since the jet fuel surcharge is set to go up, a family of four will have to spend at least Rs 3,000 extra for plane tickets.
Booking on your own for a holiday abroad may be a disadvantage. Last-minute airline and hotel bookings are fairly costly. An advance booking to, say, Malaysia by air could have cost Rs 12,000. The next slab starts at Rs 20,000. Similarly, a five star hotel room could cost $300 a day against $150-200 in advance booking.
“Big travel companies like us have the ability to accommodate last-minute travelers without charging extra because of our long-term arrangements with airlines and hotels,” says Vishal Suri, chief operating officer (leisure outbound), Thomas Cook (India). “We typically see 70 per cent of our travellers booking at least two weeks before the date of departure,” he adds.
“We have not increased our rates and all our value additions were designed keeping in mind the last-minute demand,’’ says Arup Sen, executive director, Cox and Kings India. According to Sen, people wait for the financial year to get over so that the expense falls in the next year’s tax calculations.
Last-minute travelers can go to Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Mauritius and the Maldives, where visa is issued on arrival. Inside India, the preferred destinations include Kashmir, Goa, Kerala, Himachal Pradesh, Leh and Ladhak, say tour operators.

Indian Railways, has doubled the cancellation fee for reserved ticket cancellation. This has been done with the aim to helping genuine passengers to get confirmed tickets. There is a general opinion that, bus operators book tickets during the early stages of booking which reduces the number of available seats and thus makes the passengers opt for buses. The new move will certainly reduce this practice done by the bus operators as the cancellation charges are too high. The Sleeper ticket cancellation fee before 48 hours of departure of train has been hiked from Rs 60 to Rs 120, the Third AC fee has been hiked from Rs 90 to Rs 180.
Also, there will be no refund after the departure of a train and one has to get the refund four hours before the scheduled departure as per the revised refund rules. This mainly applies physical tickets as e-tickets are automatically cancelled if not confirmed. Earlier from 48 hours to 6 hours, the cancellation fee was 25% of the ticket and from 6 hours to 2 hours, it was 50%. Now it has been changed to 25% for 48 hours to 12 hours and 50% for 12 hours till 4 hours.
A fact regarding e-ticket
Most of us has moved from the traditional way to purchasing the tickets standing in queues to e-ticket through internet. This has in turn reduced the long standing queues in most of the railway reservation centers throughout India. Here is a fact regarding the e ticket. Earlier, IRCTC used to charge only Rs 10 per ticket. Now, the charge is Rs. 22 for Sleeper , Rs. 45 for Third AC and Second AC. In addition to this, most of the banks will charge Rs 10 extra for the transaction.
For people, who need to travel a good deal of distance to reserve tickets, this extra cost will not matter. But to those, who can conveniently go to a reservation office, the best suggestion is to reserve your tickets from there itself, if you are planning your trip in advance. This can save you at least Rs.64 for a trip to and fro.
