Wonderful staff great service and well organize and very quite.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"A decent stay..."
I stayed at this hotel in order to attend an NFL game at Fed Ex field, which was about a 40 minute walk (the hotel staff had already informed me of that before I made my reservations). The hotel had a map with walking directions to the field, which really helped. Their internet service and elevators sucked big time, however. Overall, it was a decent […] stay; clean room, and the condition of the hotel overall was good. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Christmas made easy !"
Too short and I missed breakfast by ten minutes.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Years ago this hotel was bad. Not much has changed, no way were going to lay down here. Smelled like smoke and bedspreads were soiled. I left promptly and went to the Hampton inn.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The hotel was nice. I was there for a skins game its close to stadium which was very convinient. The only problem I had was at 3 in the morning we got a call to our room saying it was manager of hotel and they needed to update our info. Obviously a scamso be aware...Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Ill come againGenuine Hotels.com guest review
We were two rooms of 4. The rooms were ok . The staff was very Nice. FOr the price i have to admit That ou was a very Nice stay !! We were There for the monday Night football and we walked to the stadium . Was a good walk but not too long. We decided to walk but There was a shuttle available! We just wanted to take some of the calories we took during […] the week-end ! Not far from dc and dc was awesome ! I reccomend this hôtel ! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Cheap alternative with free parking for DC"
We had 3 rooms for our company's staff. One of the rooms had not had the bathroom cleaned. Dirty towels were still on the floor, and there was no shampoo nor soap. It made us wonder if they had cleaned the room at all; however, the bed had been made. The other rooms were fine. Also, tried to use the treadmill in the fitness room but had to go to the […] front desk to get the treadmill key. They sign saying to go to the front desk had fallen down so I spent about 5 minutes trying to figure out why the treadmill wasn't working until I found the paper with the directions. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
The actual stay there was nice minus people calling the room trying to scam you out of your money or the men being arrested in front of the hotel and no real cable..Genuine Expedia guest review
Just a terrible place. Old, outdated, and dirty. The staff was pleasant enough but I had to change rooms 3 times to get one where everything worked. Last one had a bad battery in smoke detector that kept beeping. The hallways and elevator often had the acrid smell of what one guest called, Weed. Never again!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Overall good stayGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR COMFORT INN"
WE'VE STAYED AT SEVERAL COMFORT INN, SUITE, CHOICE HOTELS IN THE PAST AND NEVER HAD THIS TYPE EXPERIENCE. WHEN WE ARRIVED, WE WERE OVERCOME BY SMOKE, AS SMOKERS WERE STANDING OUTSIDE BY THE WALKWAY. THEN WHILE WE WERE IN OUR ROOM @ APPROX 11PM, THE SCENT OF CIGARETTES & MARIJUANA CAME INTO THE ROOM FROM THE HALLWAY. IT WAS RIDICULOUS, ESPECIALLY SINCE […] WE SAW SECURITY OUTSIDE & INSIDE THE HOTEL. WHAT IS THE POINT OF HAVING THEM THERE IF THIS IS TO BE TOLERATED. THE OVERALL ROOM AREA WAS CLEAN HOWEVER, THERE WAS MILDEW/MOLD IN THE BATH/SHOWER TILE AND THE SINK DID NOT DRAIN WELL. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
always a plesure to stay in hotel, but the hotel needs new furniture is looking old tksGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Loved itGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great for DC mall trip"
Perfect location for those going into DC, Helpful staff, free shuttle to Metro underground. and a wonderful starter breakfast. Room was on top floor, clean and cozy. TV reception was a little fuzzy, Quite and peaceful.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice hotel to spend time in"
The stay at Comfort Inn was enjoyable. Having the wash basin in the bedroom was a bit awkwark. I would have preferred it in the bathroom but we used it! The location was adequate for where we had to be the next morning. The attendant on the front desk was kind but was not aware of the many eating choices that were available in the area. The rooms were […] nice, clean and I especially enjoyed having the microwave and fridge available. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
I love it..I would recommend it to anyoneGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Price is right"
For the location we were visiting it was perfect. Basically clean inconvenient, I had no issues since I was only going into sleep.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good Hotel Great Price"
PROS:Before I could confirm my reservation I noticed that there was FREE coffee and tea in the waiting lobby. The coffee/tea table was equipped with sugars and creams.The staff was curious and thoughtful; there was hot/cold breakfast in the morning. The room had a flat screen plasma TV, Coffee, Soaps, Towels, Working lights, a nice deep tub for soaking […] and relaxing, and plush soft pillows. CONS The hotel should have made the customers aware that it is PG county law that guests not be permitted to go on the balcony. It was welded shut and I ended up breaking my nail, the carpet near the balcony was a little damp (guessing the cause was hurricane sandy), and the shuttle only goes to Morgan Boluvard. Addison Rd station is a little further than Morgan Boluvard ( about half a mile away from the hotel)OVERALL RATING: This hotel get a 4 out of 5. Mainly because of the price, but the hotel also has a good atmosphere and it's clean. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very Strick Rules Motel"
Fair, nothing to bragg about accept the beds, beds wear very nice. There was four of us staying for the game, our first night we had picked up some food to bring back and eat. The bell hop would not let us use a table in the restaurant to eat at. At ten o'clock the breakfast area is closed. All of this is ok, I want be back and I know you want miss […] me either. Your folks is only there to do their job, it's just a business and it's yours, have a good day. No love in this place. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
Considering my situation at the time, this hotel was not that bad. I felt safe at all times. The price for the rooms definitely did not match the location. This hotel is ok for a one night stay with free breakfast.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to Andrews AFB"
The only positive is the proximity to Andrews AFB. The elevator was broke, the toilet ran ALL night and the remote control for the TV did not workGenuine Expedia guest review
This place is HORRIBLE! They have old box tv maybe 30" most of the channels didn't even work... Swimming pool was closed the whole time I was there. The room space is nice, breakfast was pretty good coffee stinks. It's nice that it's walking distance to FedEx field. It's good to stay there for a day, but a week was horrible! Wireless Internet didn't […] work half the time. I would not stay at this hotel. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"NO INTERNET, I FEEL OUTDATED IN THIS HOTEL"
Very disappointed, NO INTERNET SERVICE IN YOUR ROOM, YOU CAN COUNT THE CABLE CHANNELS ON ONE HAND, UPGRADE OR SALE OUT!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Perfect location for FEDEX events"
First impressions are lasting! Although the location to the sporting event we attended was excellent, we will not use this particular Comfort Inn on future visits. Only 1 of 2 elevators was operational causing exceptionally long delays (up to 4 minutes) to room access. My wife and I swapped room twice within the first 20 minutes upon arrival. First […] room was to be smoke free. It reeked of smoke and mildew and had burn marks through the comforter. Second room was not cleaned. Previous occupants left food, drinks, and appeared to have rested muddy feet on the bed. This room was to be cleaned while we left for dinner, upon return, the maid left for the night and did not touch the room. We moved to a third room which was acceptable. However, internet service on that floor was touch and go. Additionally, the picture quality on the television was lacking. The dining area was very clean and the staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast accommodations were most delightful. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
The room was smelling really bado and the neighborhood not good (strange people)!Genuine Expedia guest review
Not quite sure what was going on at this hotel. It seemed as if it was also some kind of apartment for some unsavory characters. we had a wonderful breakfast attendant!!!! I would never stay here again because of the strange other people who seemed to be residing there!!!Genuine Expedia guest review
The hotel is very clean the rooms are great.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Amature run motel"
They advertised free shuttle service to and fro train stn. When we call motel upon arriving at stn. We we told shuttle will be there in in 10 min. 70 min later. No answer at motel had to take cab. Hoodlums hung out at front entrance and at desk talking to employees. Didn't feel safe and room was on 2nd floor and packs of guys hanging out each night […] with the emplyees no less making loud noises till wee hours of the morning. I'd sleep in my car than to ever stay there again Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"ok due to last minute overnight stay.."
Over all - it was "OK" but nothing more. Room could of used some TLC.. Slider door wouldnt open (Could have been due to a safety factor). Various spots of mildew on ceiling near balcony. Lights flickered on & off at times.. Doubtful we would stay there again. Unfortunatly, it was late & we needed to rest or we wouldve kept going to someplace a bit overall […] nicer. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good for the money"
If your planning to stay here to later go to Washington DC, just be aware that although a 10 mile distance, is actually around 45 minute drive...traffic is horrible. Room was nice, however carpet was a bit dirty...hotel is good for the money.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"A bit lower than OK"
Far from perfect stay overall - A bit lower than OK. Cons 1. Was not able to configure and use WiFi in the room - it does not work. 2. Replacing towels takes a while and I had to ask for it. 3. Problem with hot water when having later shower (after 2 am) Pros 1. Hotel provides convenient free ride to train station 2. Staff is polite and helpful (if […] you have an issue - you can sort it out with them) 3. There is a connected to Internet PC in the lobby available to guests Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
The rooms could use an upgrade but its a decent room for a decent price. The breakfast is probably the most extensive i've seen in a while. Its the best complimentary breakfast i've encountered so far and i've been up and down the coast from ny to fl.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice clean accommodations"
This a very clean hotel that I would highly recommend . Bed linens were nice and clean . Only down side is that the registration desk workers need to brush up on their customer service skills. They need to know that a smile works wonders.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
There were guests in the hotel who made it less pleasant to stay. The hotel should refuse these people.Genuine Expedia guest review
I was pleased with my stay. I wish you guys would have had more breakfast options though. Overall a great experience.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
I wil come here next time.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Just Okay and Convenient"
Not the best of Hotel experiences. Quality of service was average. Same with the amenities.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The room was ok. The first thing I noticed was the odd smell of grime covered by cleaner. The bed and bathroom were very clean. The big downfall I experienced was housekeeping knocking on the door at 3am. It sounded like actuall staff but it could have been someone playing a prank. Either way it startled me out of a deep sleep.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
I was in complete shock when I realized that the motel was used as a place for many unsupervised teenage kids. They were loud, messy and rude. Many of them would congregate in the breakfast area and not leave anything for the actual guest of the motel. It was the worst experience I have ever had when staying out of town.Genuine Expedia guest review
Everything was good.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
This place was terrible. The internet service was awful, there was no hot water at night and they didn't clean our room the first day we were there. I would not recommend this place to anyone.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Needs updating and repairs"
I arrived at this hotel about 9pm from a 9 hour drive, so I was pretty tired. I was on the main floor, so that was ok. I walked into the room and it was a horrible odor as if the room had been unused for a long time, no air circulating, musty odor. I sprayed some body mist to freshen the room and turned on the AC so that was better. I sprayed the bed […] as well for a fresher odor. The tub was not the cleanest and very dated. The latch on the back of the door was broken and I was alone so I felt compelled to place a chair behind the door for extra security. It did have a dorm refrig and microwave so that was good. Easy accessibility to a few restaurants and stores and the highway. The worst issue was the fire alarm went off about 3 am and alarmed until after 5am, so I was already tired from the trip and was up practically all night b/c they had a faulty alarm system. I didn't see any fire trucks or anyone outside when I first heard the alarm right outside of my room, so I called the front desk to see if there was a fire and was told no it was no fire and no need to leave the room or hotel. The alarm went off for a straight hour before it went off and back on and off until 5 or 5:30am which was extremely agravating. Sat. night it started again going off about midnight but it didn't alarm as long but yet disturbing. The hotel offers breakfast. Sausage didn't look edible, eggs...maybe ok. They had waffles if you could figure how to make and cold breakfast food and juices etc. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
Just needed a place to stay for one night. Flew into the area to interview for a job. Staff seem nice. There were just random people hanging out side of the hotel though. Not sure if they were guest. The room was okay. Could have be cleaned better.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Out of order Room"
Check in was fine. Went to the room and could barely open the door because of a carpet shampoo machine in the way. The machine, solution, cleaning list, and other items were in the room. The room was roasting and when I went to call down to the front desk the phone had no dial tone, yet was plugged in correctly. Took the also burning hot elevator back […] down to the front desk and explained the situation to the not suprised desk clerk. I was not told sorry about the inconvenience but was made new keys promptly and returned to my out of order room, gathered my belonging and Switched to my new room. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Came for Redskins game"
It did the trick for two nights to see a Redskins game but just barely. Do not try to walk from this hotel to the game.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to FedEx Field & Great Staff"
Staff was excellent! Shuttle to & from Metro was easy to use & they went out of their way to be accommodating. Beds were incredibly comfortable & location was perfect for FedEx Field.Genuine Expedia guest review
While the room was fine and the staff nice, the outside noise until 4 am was a problem. There was a small group of noisy people in the parking lot and no one from the security did anything about it. Plus the fire alarm constantly going off did not help.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Because we stayed there only one night, it did the job. The hotel is seriously running down. I stayed there three years ago, so I was a repeat customer. I don't think they changed a thing - not even a coat of paint - in three years. Even wall paper next to common elevator was peeling off and sadly nobody cared... People were waking in & out freely even […] at night, so I highly doubt about security. This is definitely two star hotel with security in question, not even remotely close to three. Yes, there was a balcony, as I remembered from previous trip, but the sliding door was nailed so nobody can go out! Doesn't it explain something to you? Acceptable stay for one night, but that's it.

We went to nemesis on our first night and it definitely got our holiday off to a great start! Although it was really busy the food arrived quickly and was absolutely lovely! We had the baked feta and vine leaves for starters and the chicken zante for main. The staff were amazing and so friendly! No sooner had we finished our first bottle of wine a second one was put on the table in front of us for free! Highly recommended :)
amazing. Dennis on the door is very kind and is not pushy whatsoever like most of the other door men (KOUKOS) :) worth a visit to Nemesis for definate! xx
Definitely worth a visit. Lovely food, and reasonable prices. Dennis on the door is a lovely man, who is always pleased to see you, even if you go in or not. Top man. Top restaurant.
One of the few other restaurants we did eat in this year, and it was precisely because the guy (Dennis) on the door was so lovely, not pushy , just wished us a lovely evening when we didn't go in, that we chose to eat in there. Food very good standard, and not overpriced. Will Certainley use it again next year.
One of my favourite restaurants in Tsilivi, the food is lovely - I would recommend Beef Stamnes it is the nicest meal I've had in Greece (beef, potato, feta cheese, herbs, tomatos all cooked in a pot and topped with mozarella cheese). The souvlaki is also good and everything is well priced, about 8-10 euros for a main course.
Fantastic food as always, would highly recommend the Lamb Kleftico and Beef Stamna along with the Hoffman Scnitzel.We have visited Nemisis every time we've visited Tsilivi and are never disappointed. Thanks to Dennis and the rest of the staff for the warm and friendly welcome and great service.
love it! although my little cousin decided to wipe the waiters hand in spag bol!
A very nice restaurant. The food was excellent, and the service was friendly and efficient. The staff couldn't have done more to look after us. Reasonable prices as well.
Just reurned froma 2 wk holiday and wished we had found this restaurant earlier in our hols. The food was brilliant, excellent value for money, staff were friendly and very helpful, especially with my husbands dietry needs. defo recommend this place to everyone.
Yep good food...
The food here is fantastic and the waiters are great, we ate here twice and wish we'd tried it earlier.
Fantastic food! Very friendly staff! My other half rates their pizza as the BEST his ever had. Will definatly be eating here next year.
Great place, Fab food expecially the chicken suvlaki with bacon, excellent service and friendly staff
Very suprised at some of the comments on here. We went to tsilivi in may/june this year, and wev booked again for sept this year and all i keep thinking about is going back to nemisis to have chicken zante....the staff were friendly, service was fast and the food was excellent!!
Visited the Nemesis in June this year. The restaurant was very busy but the staff were extremely friendly and efficient.
We ordered a starter (which looked more like a main meal!) and a main meal (which was even bigger!). Not surprisingly, we didn't have room for dessert.
The meal was gorgeous, very generous portion sizes, great taste and piping hot. Thankfully, it wasn't served with chips either! :o)
The house white wine was abit dodgy but what do expect for about 5euros!
I would definitely recommend Nemesis to anyone with a big appetite that's looking for good quality, tasty food at a very good price.
WHEN I ATE AT THIS PLACE THE FOOD WAS EXCELLENT, MASSIVE PORTIONS, TRIED IT 4 DIFFERENT NIGHTS AND COULDN'T FAULT IT, PS, DOES ANYBODY KNOW IF SPIROS IS STILL WORKING THERE?
The smell of garlic wafting down the road was a real temptaion to come here and eat.
We visited here on our first night in Tsilivi and really enjoyed our meal. We made a point of going back a second time before the end of our stay. Again the meal and service was excellent. Quite a large menu to choose from. Very reasonable prices and a really nice atmosphere. We would definetly go back!
We ate here a few times and the food was great. Service could be a little slow on busy nights but who's in a hurry on holiday. The waiter with the black glasses was so nice and nothing was too much trouble,
we ate here about 5 nights, and couldnt fault it one bit.
I walked past here every day last year but never tried it, wow did we miss out!
by far the best restaurant ,the food was great the service great the restaurant had a lovely feel to it.we ate there most of the time nothing else compared to it,the staff made you feel very welcome

Ping Nakara Boutique Hotel & Spa
What We Love
- Just 19 large guest rooms, each decorated with handcrafted furniture and Thai silks
- A spa that specializes in Ayurvedic treatments
- Relaxed French dining in the Nakara Jardin, thanks to a Cordon Bleu–trained chef
What To Know
- The airport shuttle fee is $20 (one way) per vehicle
- Children 12 and under stay free in their parents’ room
- Pets are not allowed
- Free WiFi
- Handicap Accessible
- Kids Club
- Parking On Site
One of Chiang Mai’s loveliest colonial-style hotels, the Ping Nakara is a vision of graceful gingerbread architecture with fretwork made of the teak that gave the city its colonial-era wealth. The designers made abundant use of natural materials but added modern conveniences and comforts like free minibars and WiFi throughout. The restaurant specializes in high-quality renditions of traditional Thai fare, and by request, the chef can prepare a special tasting menu of dishes that date from the Teak Wallah period. A second restaurant in a garden specializes in French cuisine and pastries.
In the Area
The hotel is centrally located in Chiang Mai near Wiang Kum Kam, the recently restored ancient capital city (abandoned more than 700 years ago), and the Chiang Mai City Arts & Cultural Centre, the modern city’s premier museum. It’s also near the Tha Phae Gate, a historic site that’s also home to a worthwhile night market, and the Meng Memorial Bridge. Any visit to Chiang Mai should include a day or half-day trip to Wat Pra That Doi Suthep, a temple on a hill about ten miles from the city, that’s sacred to Thai people.
How to Get There
This hotel is a paradise island in hustle bustle of Chiang Mai . The interior of the hotel is Colonial romantic style, the pool is peaceful and beautiful. The rooms are big and beautiful. The bed is super comfortable makes you feel like you are sleeping on a cloud. Breakfast is served by the pool all the things we ordered were fresh and taste. And finally this review can’t be ended without mentioning the kindness of the staff. Certainly we will remember our stay!!!
My friend and I stayed at the hotel for three nights each in September and enjoyed spa treatments there several times. Everyone was helpful indeed - from the front desk and chauffeur to the restaurant and spa. The spa experience was exceptional: the receptionists offered great help with the arrangement, while the therapists were extremely thoughtful throughout the whole process. As many other reviews have mentioned, the hotel itself has a peaceful, lovely ambience, which makes it a great place to relax. It can be a struggle whether to go outside for sightseeing given the temptingly comfortable environment!
With many accommodation options in Chiang Mai, we did not know where to begin. By luck we chose to stay at Ping Nakara and have no regrets. Everyone there was extremely helpful. Thanks to Joe the manager for his restaurant and tourist recommendations, Nes for showing us the sights, Yam for treating us well every morning at breakfast, and everyone at the front desk. Attention to detail was obvious throughout. Ping Nakara is amazingly peaceful. It is a hidden gem.

HI - I'm a newbie to this site. Cananyone tell me if either restaurant includes breakfast when using points. We are Plantinum - not sure if that matters . Also what is the best (easiest and affordable) way to get to the hotel from the airport? Thanks - appreciate any info you can provide!
We all hope to hear from you often and please ask all the questions you can. Many of us will be glad to provide you with information that will make your trip enjoyable and also help save you money!
You will be pleased that both places will give you vouchers for a wonderful free breakfasts. That will save you $100 each day, (For two), and you will enjoy it greatly. If you do not see what you want on the menu, just ask, they will make it for you! Especially, the "Eggs Benedict" at The Marriott C-E!
Go to previous posts, review, and let us know your questions! Bon Voyage.
Jerry - thanks so much for the warm welcome and the info.
How about transport from airport to hotel? Any recommendations?
We are looking for some advise . My husband's got lots of points. Enough to stay at either C-E or Vendome. C-E will be cover fully be points but Vendome is an addl $60/ night ( guess they are sold out???). What's your advise? Is the C-E ok or should we bite the bullet and pay the added cost and stay at Vendome.
We were ok w C-E til we learned its really busy crowded area, etc....
Glad to have you "On Board", and I hope your husband and you can have a wonderful time! This sounds like your first trip to Paris, and if it is not let me know!
Having stayed at most Marriott properties in Paris, take the C-E! No place like it! Don't pay for any upgrade either. When you get there, look at the room first prior to taking your luggage to the room. If you like it have the luggage taken up. If you don't like it, request another room, or offer to pay for an upgrade then, but you should not have to, the rooms a very nice. Here's a typical room at C-E,
If you get a king, you will have more room!
These Eggs Benedict, will start your day out in "Grand Style"! There is a buffet that is also beautiful as well! You will not leave hungry!
You will probably get a room facing this peaceful courtyard, that is the dining room under the white canopies!
The cheapest way to get to the C-E is by RER, then Metro. If you don't feel adventuresome, take a taxi at about $75 one way. If you want limo, that can be arranged. A lot depends on how much luggage you have and what your budget is. Having done all of these, let me know, and I will make it real simple for you. The RER (Train) starts at CDG, so it is real easy, and you should buy a pass good for the length of time you will be there at CDG. This will cover you for all your transportation on The Metro/RER and public buses while in Paris. A great deal!
Shelly, what month are you going?
Are you going to wait for him at the airport or be adventuresome and take the RER? You really could pass even 10 hours at CDG, and get your rail passes, shop and relax, and go into Paris together. You are safe at the Airport. The train will be an easy experience if you take it, there is only one and it leaves every few minutes.
Shelley, with only one bag, I would be inclined to go directly to your hotel, get the room you want, even take a "Cat Nap", and go back and meet your husband. It is that easy. I think a four day rail/Metro Pass cost me about $45, but you can go online and see exactly how mush it is! There is only one connection and you will have a choice to take the RER all the way or RER part of the way and the Metro the rest of the way. You should try to get out at The Arch d' Triomph, and walk down the C-E, East side of street till you get to the Sephora Store, and you will see the Marriott with it's flags welcoming you!
Brother Ken and wife enjoyed the RER from CDG to The Marriott C-E!
When you see this, you are there! This is really a wonderful place for the two of you to see Paris from. Don't worry about the potential crowd, when you go in these doors you will have a "Respite" and wonderful location to see everything you want in Paris!
Shelley please let me know which hotel you decide on. I am surprising my hubby with an anniversary trip to London and Paris and am still trying to decide between the two Marriotts that you are deciding between. There are real pluses and minuses to both. Will be really interesting to hear about your trip!
Thanks for the scoop Shelley and I look forward to your posting on your experience with photos! I have reservations at both at the moment and am waiting to decide. I like the vibe of the Vendome better but the rooms are larger at CE. Also I am platinum as well so let me know if you get an upgrade.
Hi - yes we are back. Yes, we did get upgraded but only after one incredibly miserable night of having a room that faced an alley and there were 4 nightclubs (the hotel staff shared that tidbit w me) in the immediate area - the noise was absoultely unbelievable. It was like being at a Mardi Gras after party - screaming, cars screaching, sirens, etc...I called the front desk at 3a - very nicely explained the problem - they agreed that room had a terrible problem w noise from the nightclubs. Around 430am, I had to repack 2 suitcases of stuff and they moved me to another room finally. My husband was not yet in Paris - he was still in Poland. We were all nice about it - but I must say, i was a little surprised they gave us that room to begin with - I'm usually very tolerant - but the noise was beyond reasonable.
we are newbies and recently posted several questions about our first visit to Paris this July
heard you are the authority and appreciate your guidance. Here is our very FIRST post:
As of now planning on staying at marriott champs élysées on points for eight nights.
also plan on excursions to Normandy, Givenchy, Versailles. We would appreciate comments and recommendations
1) Is this a good choice for hotel for location, accommodations?
2) is breakfast included, and if not, where can one get reasonably priced breakfast or is their upgrade charge at hotel?
3) what excursion companies do you recommend for above sites?
4) Do we have enough days to enjoy sights of Paris and excursion sights?
5) Any restaurant recommendations and do we need advance reservations?
Appreciate your guidance
When I visit Paris I always take the Air France bus from CDG or Orly to the Arc De Triomphe. The bus entry is just outside the terminal (just like here in the US at airports). Line 2 is the bus line that goes to where you want to be (near the Marriott C-E if that is where you stay). It is an wasy walk to the Marriott C-E from the drop off at the Arc de Triomphe (next to the Arc just off the circle) and I like the comfort of the Air France coach better then the train that can be crowded. A one way or round trip ticket can be bought.
You can see some info here:
Have a fun trip!
Tef's advice is good, I had forgotten about that. The Air France bus isn't good for many Paris Marriott locations, but it's perfect for the C-E. The bus is right outside the baggage claim, you can purchase your ticket from the driver, it is much more comfortable, and it does drop you off at the l'Arc de Triomphe. Then you just head downhill on the C-E sidwalk (going away from the Arc on the C-E, left side of street) to the Marriott (about 50 yds past avenue George V). www.lescarsairfrance.com/en.html
Have fun in Paris!
Great Pics & Information!
More Paris Threads!
It is still in the planning stages and it is not a big deal yet, but. A few MRI are planning on getting together one night to relax, visit, and probably have dinner at the Marriott County Hall in London. It will be mid-week, probably Wed, May 15th. Everyone will be on their own, just a great chance for MRI to meet others and it should be fun!
If you don't make this one, we'll have others!
Have a great time in Paris!
My wife and I will be in Paris for our first trip also during part of the time that you are there. We are starting in London, but will be in Paris May 9-14. We are staying at the Renaissance Arc de Triomphe. We haven't decided on transportation yet either, too many choices. This board is definitely a fantastic way to get advise.
That Renaissance is very highly rated too. Looks like we are there the same time! We also start out in London! We will be at Renaissance St Pancras from March 5-8. Staying with friends in Birmingham for a few days before hitting London. We leave Paris on the 10th for home. Just 2 quick days there.
Thanks for keeping us all up to date on your plans, and I appreciate your comment.
One thing to keep in mind is "See that room first"! Before taking your luggage to it. I have never had a bad room at The C-E, but there was a recent post about a "Loud room" next to some night clubs. It must have been on the backside of the hotel, because I have never heard any noise, but I have mostly been on the Courtyard at the C-E.
Should your husband or you have any specific questions, let us know, we would be glad to share information with you that might save you money and time!
THanks for the scoop Jerry! We decided to pony up for the C-E view. How are those rooms on noise? We are only there for 2 nights and didn't want to play the "hoping for an upgrade" game. Maybe we will get an upgrade to a Jr suite who knows. I need to go back and find your email on dining there as well. Thx again.
My wife and I have stayed at Marriott you mentioned - great location - walk out the door and just to your right is the Arc 'd Triomphe, as shown, and you're walking distance to Eiffel Tower along the River Seine. We stayed on Award Points and with Platinum status received complimentary breakfast for both of us. If you're arriving via train, there is exit very near the hotel and you can obtain directions at train station as to which line to take. We departed Paris - Charles de Gaul Airport - and took taxi out due to time, and stayed at Marriott near airport since we had early morning flight back to US.
Walking along the River Seine toward the Eiffel Tower, I noticed this building with its "external garden" so I took a photograph. I have enough trouble getting plants to grow in soil in the yard or a pot! Walking Paris is somewhat taxing, especially if you want to cover the city - I believe the Metro is the best way to get around to distant attractions, depending on where you stay. Another strategic location, I believe, is the Marriott Renaissance Le Parc Tocadero, which is near the Tower.

No free wifi very Dated rooms Took +1 hour to receive bags from lobby on check-in Staff took 20 mins to retrieve my car from valet on checkout
The hotel had our room ready, and actually tried to charge me fifty dollars to friggen check in early. My room was ready!!!!! $50.00 extra bucks?? Go fly a kite!
Hotel was nostalgic and very beautiful.
The cost for parking at the hotel $45.00?
Having a view, early check in, within walking distance of LA Live!
The hotel is not being run properly by the staff. it is called management.
amazing beauty of building and the common areas. Very large rooms.
You'd almost rather spend all your time indoors, just to admire the fabulous surroundings. If you love old architecture and a connection with the past, this hotel is for you.
No free wifi even in lobby
Located in the downtown, many choice of restaurants in the walking distance, 3 minutes walk from metro station.
Great location beautiful hotel and friendly staff.
Four persons room was miniature and had only two single beds and the hotel kept claiming that 4 adults should fit in those beds. And very bad attitude!
No soundproof windows. Street noise is very loud.
They really miss attention to detail..well really the obvious. The gym/pool areas are dated, in the basement (dark) less than desirable (old) and don't feel safe. If you take the stairs, they go from grand to scary unfinished areas.
The lobby is immaculate! Makes you feel like you're staying at a grand hotel. Breakfast during the week was great.
the Club Floor is just a business centre. Very disappointed
Not a bad experience but disappointment in the room being small and having to pay $10.00 per day for WiFi
Hotel and staff
The charm and history of the hotel. It is very well kept and service all around was excellent. The location worked well for the convention we attended.
They need dressers in rooms.
Chipped paintwork, shabby room, sockets loose, burned lampshades, air con noise nearly unbearable, water hot and cold
As the hotel is located in the middle of downtown LA, there is considerable traffic noise. I would suggest a room off the street and higher up.
The Biltmore has gorgeous lobbies and great accommodations for conferences. Our room was remodeled, spacious and clean.
No coffee and teakettle in the room No safety Box No
same items on buffet every day, a little more diversity would have been nice. Although, food was good. also, wasn't real thrilled with quality of towels, etc for the kind of hotel it was. just had water bottles. no coffee pots, etc.
cozy, comfortable enjoyed our stay & scenery of hotel quiet, able to sleep experience for my child as far as history goes along with the hotel would probably stay there again
The housekeeping was poor and the cleanlieness of the rooms for the star rating was not up to scratch. The window in our room didn't stay shut at night and so it was very noisy. It was an old hotel so therefore tired which is ok but some maintenance needs to be done
The beds in the room were unbelievably comfortable. The decor was original and beautiful. The conceirge Kevin was so helpful. Location was pretty good
down town of LA is dead in night
wifi abysmal -and had to pay $10 a day!
very friendly helpful staff stylish old décor v charming good location comfortable room

Last month, I wrote about the cheapest Category 7 from Hyatt in the world. While costing 30,000 points per night for an award, it was actually bookable for much less than $200 per night!
From Hyatt Category 7 to Category 3
Link: Hotel Levent
Since it was in Turkey and events in Turkey in the last year have affected pricing in some travel markets, that was likely why it was at that price. Since it is a Hyatt affiliate property, I am not sure how they negotiate the inclusion into the Gold Passport program and how far in advance they calculate things like categories. But, I am guessing all of that was done prior to last summer and that is why it started at a Category 7.
It didn’t take long, though, for that property to drop in the category rankings! The Hotel Levent has gone from a Category 7 (requiring 30,000 points per night) to a Category 3 (requiring 12,000 points per night). Even that is still a high award price since the hotel can be booked for just over $100 per night. In fact, even the Park Hyatt in Istanbul can be booked for less than $150 per night! By the way, the Points+Cash rate for this hotel is completely nuts – 6,000 points and €269 per night! Normally, a Points+Cash for a Category 3 is 6,000 points and $75 per night. Not sure why this is $200 more…
I am not sure but I think the Hotel Levent’s category drop from a Category 7 to a Category 3 may just be the steepest and drastic category drop from Hyatt. It has literally dropped 18,000 points per night!
Have you ever stayed at the Hotel Levent? Would you consider it a Category 3?

8 things you should know about the new American Airlines-JetBlue partnership
This post contains references to products from one or more of our advertisers. We may receive compensation when you click on links to those products. Terms apply to the offers listed on this page. For an explanation of our Advertising Policy, visit this page.
American Airlines and JetBlue jolted the industry when they announced plans for a Northeast-focused alliance last summer.
Less than a month after receiving regulatory approval, the two competitors-turned-partners are hitting the ground running. On Thursday, American and JetBlue kicked off the partnership with nearly 80 codeshares, 33 new routes, schedule coordination and more.
The sweeping network alignment is detailed, but here are some of the most important takeaways from the major announcement.
Loyalty integration is coming
It’s no secret that American and JetBlue were working to offer reciprocal mileage earning and redemption benefits. But Thursday’s announcement gives even more detail of what to expect.
When the partnership launches on Feb. 25, customers flying on codeshares will earn miles with the carrier through which they purchased the ticket.
This spring, the airlines will introduce reciprocal mileage earning benefits — meaning that you could purchase an AA flight and choose to credit it to JetBlue’s TrueBlue program and vice versa.
American and JetBlue will also unveil reciprocal elite benefits in the spring.

American will add a new Airbus A321T route
American’s swankiest jet, the Airbus A321T, will fly a new route from New York-JFK to Orange County, California (SNA) beginning on July 2.
The plane features one of the most spacious and luxurious configurations in the domestic skies. With 10 Flagship First pods, 20 Flagship Business lie-flats and just 72 coach seats, you’re sure to have a comfortable ride on this jet.
Previously, American used this 102-seat single-aisle plane almost exclusively on flights between New York and Los Angeles (LAX) and San Francisco (SFO).
Amid unfounded rumors that the plane was on its way out, American is bringing it back in full force. In addition to Orange County, American will continue flying the plane to LAX and SFO as part of the Northeast alliance.
American’s adding first class to New York
One of the many customer-facing benefits that American touted was that it would only fly larger jets equipped with a first-class cabin to and from New York.
The carrier is making good on its promise with its 18 new routes that it announced on Thursday. Except for the new Orange County route, the 11 other domestic connections will be operated by a 76-seat Embraer 175, with 12 first-class recliners and 64 coach seats.
American is also slated to retire its smallest jet, the Embraer 140 in May, leaving just the Embraer 145 as the carrier’s only jet without first class. Expect American to phase out the Embraer 145 from New York routes in the coming months.
Expanded international flights from JFK
Another major selling point of the partnership is the expansion of flights from JFK.
American is making good on the promise by adding six additional international routes, including a new long-haul flight to Santiago (SCL).
The flight will start three times weekly in May, before getting boosted to daily come November.
Santiago joins American’s three other new JFK long-hauls: Athens, Rio de Janeiro and Tel Aviv.
Pre-pandemic, AA was winding down much of its international flying from New York, leaving just key business routes and moving the rest to Philadelphia. This partnership is altering that strategy.
Schedule coordination in key markets
On Thursday, American and JetBlue announced that they’re teaming up in a slew of markets, including the Washington D.C. shuttles, the Los Angeles and San Francisco transcons and Northeast to Florida routes.
While the goal is enhanced connectivity and integration, it’s not all good news. Coordinating effectively eliminates a competitor in the market, which can often lead to higher fares.
Plus, the current plan calls for fewer flights in some markets than before the partnership. On the New York to Los Angeles transcon, AA will fly six daily flights, and JetBlue will operate eight, from both JFK and Newark.
Pre-pandemic, AA was operating up to 13 daily JFK-LAX flights alone, per Cirium schedules. Of course, the pandemic has eliminated much of the transcon demand, but note that coordination could lead to a net reduction in frequencies.
New routes for both American and JetBlue
When the partnership was approved in mid-January, JetBlue promised to significantly expand service at LaGuardia, while American would handle much of the international flying.
Thursday’s announcement doesn’t quite fit into that strategy.
The New York-based carrier is only adding three new LGA flights — Charleston, Denver and Martha’s Vineyard. Instead, Newark is seeing the biggest boost from JetBlue, with ten new routes to cities like Seattle and Cartagena.
American, on the other hand, will add six new LGA flights and five from Boston, while also adding six new international connections from JFK.
Only time will tell how the network strategy evolves.
The partnership is moving forward despite a snag
On Tuesday, JetBlue’s pilot union, the Air Line Pilots Association, or ALPA, voted against the proposed partnership. Despite the snag, JetBlue is clearly still committed to moving forward with the alliance.
Of course, it remains to be seen what, if any, concessions the pilots require to move forward with the deal. Count this one as developing.
The battle for basic economy
While American and JetBlue are teaming up in the Northeast, their revenue management departments clearly don’t see eye to eye.
Earlier this week, JetBlue overhauled its basic economy fare structure. Beginning this summer, flyers purchasing the cheapest fares will no longer be allowed to bring a carry-on bag, making JetBlue’s Blue Basic fare one of the most punitive in the industry.
Meanwhile, American recently eased up its basic economy restrictions. Flyers can now purchase upgrades, priority boarding, extra-legroom seats and same-day changes. Plus, elites can enjoy their full suite of benefits. All travelers, regardless of status, can bring full-sized carry-on bags as well.
The carriers haven’t yet announced how they’re going to handle basic economy restrictions for flights purchased through the partnership.
The JFK transit experience will improve
As the carriers work to further align their networks, they’ll also need to work through the connection experience at JFK. Both airlines operate from separate terminals, and getting between terminals at JFK has historically required reclearing security and taking a landside AirTrain.
Fortunately, the carriers promise that a more “seamless experience” is coming soon.

We recently arrived back from a full month in Burma trying to ensure we kept off the beaten track – and yes there is a track. Here’s our essential tips you need to know before you arrive in Myanmar/Burma in 2015.
1. Arrival at Yangon Airport
Upon arrival at Yangon you will be able to pick up a free wifi signal – but only strong enough for you while standing in line for immigration. Upon passing through immigration you will find in front of you at the end of the hall a bank money changing stand which is where you should change a good portion of your (pristine) US dollars to kyat. Lonely Planet and many other blog will tell you that you should use the black market on the streets to change your money but in recent months many banks have opened and it’s a no-brainer to use the banks over the dodgy guys on the street. We found at the airport US$1 = 1024 kyat which was better than we had expected. After changing some money head around the corner to where you exit into the airport and right before the gates you can easily miss the taxi booking stand. They are super helpful in getting a taxi for you where they issue you a ticket and walk you to an official taxi driver. Cost from the airport to Yangon via taxi is $8 or 8000 kyat.
2. When to use Pristine US Dollars versus Kyat?
This is a difficult question for many as you can’t get Kyat outside of the country – so when is it best to covert over? We found that we only used US$ when booking hotels or buses. But in reality we would suggest converting as much over to Kyat as soon as possible as there’s no places that only take US$ that you need to keep it for. The only place we found was that some guest houses would try to put their prices up $5 if we tried to pay in local currency – but that only happened once or twice and we laughed and told them there was no chance we were paying anything more for their crap room.
3. Can I get a sim card or dongle for internet in Myanmar?
The hard and fast answer is NO – but things are changing FAST. Prior to August last year the only sim cards you could get cost $200 and were only good for phone calls, not data. In August Ooredoo entered the market (you will see the signs plastered all around Yangon for their marketing campaign) and made sim cards more affordable. Hence locals moved straight onto using smart phones as they now have access to cheaper sim cards. So for the time being you have to rely on wifi at guest houses – and that’s completely unreliable at the best of times.
UPDATE: Ooredoo has just released information on monthly data packs for their sim cards so it’s worth looking at how easy it is to get one set up in your phone. 5 gig for $30 isn’t too bad a deal.
UPDATE 2 via TravellingHummingBird: There’s a few companies who offer SIM cards at the airport. On a personal recommendation from Andrea of Wandering iPhone I went with Ooredoo. A prepaid option, with a tourist bonus. For $8,500 kyat ($8.50) I got a months connection and 1.5gb data. It seems that every second man and his dog/cat/rooster sell top of vouchers if needed. After speaking to others in the hostel don’t buy the tourist offered SIM card. Less data and nearly double the price of what I bought! The perks of taking the time to get this done at the airport is having an English speaking staff member set everything up for you.
4. Where should you stay when travelling around Myanmar?
Do some leg work first. Lonely Planet is the only guidebook that has decided to publish a book while the country is still under military rule and it will take a few years before guides like Footsteps and Fordors decide to do their own. This leaves you in a pickle if you haven’t done your research and rely solely on Lonely Planet accommodation – the guest houses and hotels will be the most run down places in the country as they are the only places 99% of people are willing to stay.
I suggest getting your Lonely Planet (because no matter how against them you are, it is the bible for the country and you and every other person you see will be clutching it the whole time you’re in Burma), getting a notebook and open TripAdvisor for all the towns and cities you might be visiting (in 28 days you will visit places you didn’t think you would get the chance) and write a list of hotels that are in TripAdvisor but not in Lonely Planet. this gives you a foot in the door that most other travellers won’t have. Make a note of addresses but most importantly make a note of phone numbers so that when you know when you’ll be arriving in a town you can get your current guest house to book for you. Handy when the smaller towns have limited english on the other end of the phone.
5. Myanmar hotels vs hotels in the rest of South East Asia
You’re gonna be in for a shock at the prices hotels and guest houses expect you to pay in Myanmar. This is because Chinese hotels were the first accommodation allowed in the country so they brought their prices with them. As no one in the country has travelled, they too have used this pricing model when opening local guest houses. Guest houses vary quite a bit as you travel around the country but all expect you to be paying minimum $25-$30 per night for a double room (there’s no promise that the higher end will be a private ensuite (using ensuite in the loosest possible way).
We have travelled extensively throughout Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos and where we were able to score a great room, double bed, decent private ensuite, air con, fan and fridge for about $5 a night (best deal we got was in Cambodia for the perfect room for only $3) because you’re allowed to bargain with the local owners, you will be paying in Myanmar up to $35 for rooms you wouldn’t wish upon your friends. Just make sure you ask to check the rooms before agreeing and see what the $5 extra room looks like.
6. Booking buses and trains on the move in Myanmar
When you arrive in a town you will have a good idea how long you will have and when you want to move on. Myanmar doesn’t have a transport system like the rest of South East Asia. When you travel from city/town to town you will be most likely be travelling with locals which means buses do get booked up quite quickly. To save yourself getting a centre isle seat on a 11 hour overnight bus where every stop you will need to fold your seat up while a passenger gets on or off – as you arrive in town at the bus stop or when you get to the guest house, get them to book you a ticket immediately and ensure you ask for/get a ‘good seat’.
7. Don’t put all your faith in helpful hotel staff
Burma is new to tourism and no one has a passport to travel outside Myanmar so locals sometimes don’t understand many questions you’re wanting answers about. Generally in other countries the pool;e in the hotel have an idea where you’ve come from and what places you will be travelling onto next so can guess what you’re wanting to do. Not so in Burma. No one has traveled and many just wonder why the hell you’ve decided to visit their little town. They probably won’t have maps of the town or any idea what the sights Lonely Planet suggests you to visit. Many times we just got blank stares when asking about the big attraction like the tallest buddha in the word or the hot springs that LP says are where locals go on the weekend.
On your travels you will have locals or guides with a good handle on english. Use these people. Show them your suggested next towns and how you plan to move between them, show them your full itinerary and give them time frames and just see what they say. They are few and far between so when you find them, mine them for information. We found just telling them where we plan to head to next and watching their reaction would give us a good idea whether to attempt the travel or not.
8. Use Agoda strategically
We found that most of the time you could rock up to any town or city in Myanmar and you would generally find a room. This tends to be a bit harder in Yangon, Mandalay, Inle Lake and Bagan because these are the only stops on the main tourist route. When we found was that when you had a good idea when you would be visiting these places, jump onto Agoda, winter by price and book into the ones with the highest ratings (8.5+).
You will find the cost of rooms throughout Myanmar to be much more expensive than those in other South East Asian countries, so you could end up saving some money though Agoda. The added bonus of this is that if you’re running low on cash you can book with your credit card and worry about a few days accommodation when you get home. A word of warning is to book these hotels when you find good wifi as we found it if you left it a day or hoped your next hotel would have wifi where you could book it, inevitably there would be no wifi or it would be so slow that you would click on the payment page and the page would stall with you unsure if you have been changed and the reservation made.
8. When to have a hotel splurge
You do get sick to your stomach when you realise that your $30 room each night varies in size, cleanliness, ensuite/shared bathroom can be so varied. To help you get through your 28 days look to book a room on Agoda every 1.5 weeks where you can have a decent hotel, nice bed and nice bathroom to reset you body. If you’re paying about $30 each night for a crap room then for the additional price of a coffee and muffin for 2 people, the additional $15 is a great investment. The one issue you will have is then comparing your next few rooms to these and be angry what an extra $10 can get you.
9. Keep spare change handy
There will be times you need a few coins when you need to use the bathroom so always keep a 50/100 kyat note spare for those times you’re busting to go.
10. Myanmar Power Plug Adaptors
You can pick these up locally for less than a dollar.
I’m a male and I’m putting this as an essential so you need to know it’s important. Burma is dry and dusty. More than you ever expect especially as you’re travelling in open trains, bikes, pick ups and buses. You’re whole body will dry up before you know it and you’re gonna want to moisturise your face, arms and legs every day before you turn in to a scaly lizard.
12. Contact lens wearers
Continuing on from the dry and dusty point above, you’re gonna be relying on your glasses a lot more than usual. You’re gonna find much more grit in the air in the major cities because huge buildings have yet to be built so for every car and bus that runs through the town, they will be constantly stirring up dust and it’s gonna hurt.
13. Early morning arrivals in Myanmar
If you move strategically around Burma you’re going to find overnight buses arriving at 3 or 4am in the morning. There will be taxi driver waiting without fail but you might find more of an issue at the guest house. When you make the booking make sure you tell them when to expect you and ask if you can get into your room when you arrive. It’s a bit cheeky as you basically get 2 nights in the room as you can catch some shut eye from 4am til you head out and then officially have the room for the night. If we didn’t inform our guesthouse we then spent a good 3-4 hours in a foyer full of mosquitoes in the dark as they wouldn’t let us have the room till check in time (usually 10am).
14. Economy of scale
It’s astounding the difference in prices for good and services in Myanmar but you should get your head around them asap. A bowl of Shan noodles or mohinga will cost you 50c, a hotel can cost you $25-$40, and an 11 train journey can cost you $1.70 but that moto taxi to the station 10 minutes away will cost you $6.
15. Temple étiquette for dummies
Don’t be one of those tourists that get issued a sarong to wear around because you’ve decided to go in your skimpiest outfit. A general rule is that shorts/skirts need to be down past the knee (guys can just let them hang down a few notches) and no singlets/speggetti strap tops on the ladies. The number of idiot guys we spotted walking around in sarongs because their shorts were too short was amazing. Don’t be one of them. Also on the days you’re going to be visiting temples wear thongs as yore gonna be taking them on and off 100 times a day.
16. Keep a day up the sleeve
Because there are very few tourist buses plying a well worn track, it may take longer to get places than expected or delays due to faulty trains or buses. You will find (with buses especially) that the routes they play aren’t yet made for tourists so there’s no natural connections. You may catch an early bus at 4am and get in early to a town you want to move through at 10am but the bus you needed only departs at 7.30am each day so you need to overnight it. To keep it all in perspective have a day or 2 up the sleeve until your last week so that you don’t get caught short and need to a) rush back to your departure city and b) you might have a bit more freedom at the end of your trip to have an additional stop you may learn about during your travels.
17. Booking public transport tickets at stations
This one caught us out a few times. If the guesthouse cannot book you a travel ticket you will need to take a moto taxi or similar to the station. Rather than the both of you head there, just send one delegate on ahead to do it as if you take 2 bikes it cost you twice as much for a return journey, that could be as much as the transport you went to book.
18. Pocket App is your friend
If you have a smart phone – download Pocket App (iPhone | Android). This is an app that allows you to save internet pages to read offline. Now head to wikitravel for each of the cities and towns you may visit – better to have more than less. Wikitravel is more up to date than travel guides and has more insight into towns as it’s edited on the fly by travellers. It was a lifesaver to know what to expect when you got to each town, what had changed, costs of transport from where you would get off the bus/train to town etc.
While you’re at it – Pocket App all of our Myanmar Travel Tips so you have these all handy when you need them most.
19. How much money will I need if I intend to use the full 28 day visa?

Checking in: Welcome back to Cancun
From a travel advisor who is there right now
CentreHoliday’s Oksana Mashchak recently arrived in Cancun as her first international trip since the pandemic changed the face of travel.
Mashchak, who has been in the travel industry for seven years and specializes in tropical beaches and weddings, says one of the most notable differences is the amount of resort and beach space travellers have as occupancy rates are kept low.
“With preparation, a wonderful vacation is possible even with 14-days quarantine upon return,” Mashchak tells Travel Courier. “I feel fortunate to support Mexico and our airline, and also to test the process for my clients who choose to travel.”

Wondering what travel looks like right now? Well, here I am doing a test drive of things! The main difference is – there is a whole lot more of cleaning and mask wearing. Stay here for all the updates. Any guesses as to where did I arrive to? P.s. thank you @lomastravel for a luxurious transportation upgrade! #currenttravel #travelnews #mytravels #travellikeoksana #oksanatravels #bringingtravelback #bringingvacationsback #musttravel #howdoyoutravelnow
Want to know more about what it’s like travelling to Cancun right now? Here’s Mashchak’s firsthand account.
What changes did you notice upon arrival?
Biggest change was in how things are cleaned even before you get to reception. Luggage is being sanitized, shoes and wheels are taken through the satirizing mats. Temperature checks and sanitizer gel sections. Our hotel had online check in, so we got a notification when the room was ready and to go get the keys.
Our choice was Cancun as the workers are always so diligent and go out of their way to welcome tourists. I find the selection of hotels and quality to be amazing value in this destination. Plus the beautiful beach and the many shades of blue. Staff thanked us on multiple occasions for coming to support them.
Where are you staying and what is the experience like?
Our first hotel was Hyatt Ziva Cancun, and our stay was fantastic: Concierge reserved dinner for us, and what was operational. Most services were offered — except the lobby bar. Restaurants were open on rotation but scheduled in a way that you can try them all. I did like that the breakfast buffet was open and a change of having a glass barrier and all food served on your plate is one we should keep. Way cleaner, less food waste and more hygienic (pandemic or not). Most self-serves have been eliminated, so anything you want is served to you by staff in gloves with minimal contact. Beach beds are also disinfected the moment someone leaves their spot, as are the tables. Rooms are cleaned and sealed, and housekeeping is available on request.
Is mask wearing enforced or encouraged in public spaces?
Staff must wear face masks, and gloves when serving food. Guests do not have to. Guests have to walk through foot wear sanitizer stations and clean hands before entering any food establishment. Tables are spaced out to adhere to distancing.
What do you think those in industry should know about travelling again?
If anything, resorts feel way cleaner and safer than back home. They allow plenty of space, and services are better than ever. All contact areas are disinfected regularly. Elevator buttons were wiped down several times each hour.
Is it possible to still have a “normal” vacation?
It is very possible to have a normal vacation and a dream come true for those who enjoy their space and absence of crowds. A little more relaxing as well.
Are your clients booking trips already despite the self-isolation requirement?
A lot of my clients are still waiting, but a few who can work from home upon arrival, or stay-at-home mothers whose spouse works out of town have booked a vacation. The 14 days is what is stopping the majority of my clients from travelling.
View this post on Instagram
One of the biggest differences about going to Caribbean right now is having a lot of space. Hotels are kept at low accupancy so that guests can have all the distance between each other. Rooms are cleaned and sealed, and housekerping is on request. Common areas are cleaned often, especially elevator buttons. All staff wears masks as they provide same wonderful, if not better, service. You may enjoy a vacation with always a beach bed available. And you will not have to be close to anyone besides the person you are traveling with. #travelnow #hyattallin #traveltodaytv #hyattzivacancun #pandemictravel #cancun #roomview #myroom #resortlife
