Due to its unpredictable weather – warmth and sunshine in January; cold and fog in July – San Francisco is a city with neither a high season nor a low season. Rather, it can put a dent in your wallet year round. But finding a deal on a luxury hotel isn’t impossible. In fact, several of the city’s hottest accommodations have rooms available for less than $200 a night. Read on to learn more about our 10 favorite San Francisco budget hotels and what times of year boast the lowest rates.
The century-old Fairmont’s grandeur and glamour is unparalleled and a must-visit on many guests’ lists – even those not staying in the San Francisco budget hotel itself. The lobby’s vaulted ceilings, Corinthian columns, spiral staircase, and rococo furniture give the impression you’ve checked into a castle, not just any ol’ hotel (which the Fairmont most definitely is not). In the rooms you can expect to find oversize marble bathrooms, heavenly blankets, goose-down king pillows, and large walk-in closets. You can’t ask for more scenic panoramas – like Coit Tower or Alcatraz Island – than that which the upper floors of the Fairmont offer. The lobby level Laurel Court restaurant and lounge serves a daily high tea – crumpets, clotted cream, tea sandwiches, the works – from 2:30pm to 4:30pm and is not to be missed. If you like your cocktail with a side of kitsch, visit the hotel’s Polynesian-themed Tonga Room at night: Mai Tais flow freely, bar-goers jive to groovy sounds from the islands, and there’s even a “rain storm” every half hour where the room darkens and theatrical rumbles of thunder and sounds of pouring rain take over.
Rooms start at $199/night. The lowest rates are offered during November and December; www.fairmont.com/sanfrancisco.
Straddling the border of Union Square and the Tenderloin, this hip Joie de Vivre hotel boasts 171 rooms spread among 16 floors. The San Francisco budget hotel has been around since 1929 and has thrived in the boutique realm due to its pleasant rooms at rock bottom rates (for San Francisco) in a city of overpriced options. While many rooms overlook Geary Street, windows are double-paned and block out much of the noise. Standard rooms offer mini-bars, iPod docks, free Wi-Fi, and flat-screen TVs, while executive floors (7 through 16) have makeup mirrors, robes, and stereos with iPod ports. The hotel also has a fitness center, concierge, and restaurant. The lobby-level Bar Adagio serves up delightful cocktails and nibbles if you don’t feel like venturing far.
Double rooms at Hotel Adagio start at $169/night during quieter months; www.jdvhotels.com/adagio.
Hotel des Arts
One of the more creative accommodations in town, Hotel des Arts is also the most colorful – literally. Local artists decorated the walls in each of the rooms with their own inspirations. The 43 rooms at this San Francisco budget hotel are a bit small (they’re European-style, after all), but if you can get past that fact, you’ll have a more-than-pleasant stay. You’ll find a 24-hour concierge on hand and laundry services in the building. Rollaway beds or cribs are available for additional guests or children. Plus, breakfast and Wi-Fi come free, and many rooms have microwaves and refrigerators – perfect for the self-catering traveler on a budget – so it’s surely one of the best deals around. There’s no restaurant or bar on site, but the hotel is located one block from bustling Belden Place, which is lined with French, American, and Italian eateries, as well as a quick walk to Chinatown.
A standard room starts at $69/night for two people in quieter months, and $129/night in summer; www.sfhoteldesarts.com.
Formerly just one of a number of accommodations to clutter Union Square, the boutique Hotel Frank is now a standout after an extension renovation that was completed in 2009. This San Francisco budget hotel caters to the trendy: Rooms are beautifully furnished with 1930s décor, houndstooth-patterned carpeting, crocodile-patterned leather adorning striking emerald green headboards, vintage white leather couches, geometric Art Déco light fixtures, and marble-accented bathrooms. There are all the standard amenities in room (including complimentary Wi-Fi) and a concierge on hand. While Hotel Frank doesn’t have its own restaurant, it shares a space with Max’s on the Square (room service is also available), and a number of Union Square restaurants and hole-in-the-wall Asian fusion joints are just around the corner. Thanks to its position on noisy Geary Street (both a pro and a con), rooms aren’t always the quietest; don’t forget to pack a pair of earplugs for your stay.
Deluxe queen rooms available from $129/night, primarily during winter months. On occasion, the hotel runs specials where you can find deals as low as $109; www.hotelfranksf.com.
Hyatt at Fisherman’s Wharf
For those who prefer a location near the hustle and bustle of Fisherman’s Wharf, the Hyatt delivers both convenience and comfort. After an extensive renovation of the 313 guest rooms, public areas, and workout facility was completed in 2010, it’s been brought up to par with San Francisco’s finest hotels. Each room at the San Francisco budget hotel now has a 32-inch flat-screen TV, upgraded bathroom, Portico amenities, spacious workstation, and Hyatt Grand Bed. Hotel-wide features include a 24-hour business center; complimentary transportation to the Financial District; and the StayFit @ Hyatt Fitness Center, which has weights, cardio machines, and yoga mats and is open around the clock. At the lobby level, there’s the Enoteca Musto wine lounge and a bustling sports bar, Knuckles on the Wharf, with private TVs in each booth. The Hyatt is also one of a very few hotels in town to house an outdoor heated pool and whirlpool.
Rooms start at $129 a night. The best rates are available from November through April; fishermanswharf.hyatt.com.
InterContinental Mark Hopkins
This iconic, 19-story San Francisco budget hotel opened in 1926 and sits right atop Nob Hill, overlooking Union Square, SoMa, and the rest of the city. The 550 rooms are neoclassical in design and outfitted with floor-to-ceiling windows and natural wood, marble, and glass touches. Each rooms features Wi-Fi (about $13 a day), a plasma TV with pay movies, a mini-bar, and Frette bathrobes; babysitting, a concierge, secretarial services, and workout facilities are available throughout the hotel. The Mark Hopkins achieved widespread notoriety during World War II when it became a farewell point for soldiers bidding their loved ones adieu; be sure and head to the hotel’s summit yourself for the best view in the city at the resident cocktail lounge Top of the Mark and to see where such history was made.
Rooms start at $189 a night for a double. These rates are offered during quiet occupancy periods, which typically fall during holiday weekends (Christmas, Thanksgiving, Fourth of July, Memorial Day and Labor Day); www.ichotelsgroup.com.
InterContinental San Francisco
When the InterContinental opened its doors in early 2008, it was the first new hotel to arrive in San Francisco in several years. And it lived up to all the hype. This San Francisco budget hotel’s sleek, aquarium-like façade makes it a convenient landmark when wandering the downtown area – it’s hard to miss the brilliant blue facade amid a sea of characterless industrial spaces in SoMa (the South of Market district where the hotel is located). The contemporary-style rooms, distributed throughout 32 floors, are equipped with wireless Internet ($14.95 a day), TVs with movies (for a fee), CD players, mini-bars, and iPod docks. Request a room on a top floor with Bay Bridge views. Luce, a Michelin-star Italian restaurant; Bar 888, a lounge known for its specialty grappa; and I-Spa, a sprawling facility with a top-notch gym, spa, and indoor lap pool, round out the facilities. The location can’t be beat for the traveler who likes an array of things to do: It’s just blocks away from Yerba Buena Gardens, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Ar, the Westfield Centre mall, and a bevy of the city’s trendiest dining options.
Rooms start at $189 a night for a double, but if you book at an advance purchase rate, which is non-refundable, you can get an additional 10 percent or more off that price. These rates are offered during quiet occupancy periods, which are usually over holiday weekends (Christmas, Thanksgiving, Fourth of July, Memorial Day and Labor Day); www.intercontinentalsanfrancisco.com.
Orchard Garden Hotel
This 5-year-old standout is considered “San Francisco’s green hotel” thanks to being the first in the state built to earn LEED basic certification from the U.S. Green Building Council. Situated on the ambiguous line between Union Square, Chinatown, and the Financial District, the Orchard Garden is a Zen-style retreat with top-notch amenities (like Aveda bath products) and a soothing ambiance – not to mention a conscience. The San Francisco budget hotel utilizes European key cards, so the power shuts off once you leave the room; there are also en-suite recycling bins so guests can aid the environment, too. Rooms have DVD and CD players with surround sound (there’s even a library with movies available for borrow), free Wi-Fi, spa robes, and Egyptian cotton linens. There’s a lavish breakfast spread, a mix of hot foods like eggs and bacon and cold foods like cereal and yogurt, laid out downstairs each morning (only included in the hotel’s package stays, not in regular bookings), and dinner is available in Roots restaurant, which combines contemporary California cuisine with a dash of Mediterranean pizzazz.
Rates start at $139/night. These rates are typically available from late December through March; www.theorchardgardenhotel.com.
If you’re looking for more of a personalized experience, consider the 21-room Parker House, an inn divided between two 1909 Edwardian mansions. The staff is small and friendly, the atmosphere is intimate, a bottle of sherry sits in the living room by the fireplace so you can have an evening cocktail while making new friends, and there’s a steam room (free for all guest use) where you can blow off some stress. Other facilities at the San Francisco budget hotel include a library, piano, two lounges, and a sunroom, which plays host to a continental breakfast and complimentary wine service from 5:30pm to 6:30pm daily. For those who love nightlife, the location couldn’t be more ideal: The Parker House sits proudly in the middle of the Castro, one of San Francisco’s liveliest districts and home to many of the city’s late-night clubs. Note the property bills itself as a “gay hotel” but welcomes both gay and straight guests.
Rooms start at $169/night for a standard room with a private bath in the hall; rooms with en-suite bathrooms start at $189/night; www.parkerguesthouse.com.
Sir Francis Drake
Located off the Powell Street cable car line, Sir Francis Drake is a Kimpton property dropped smack in the middle of San Francisco’s busiest neighborhood, Union Square. It’s been in operation since 1928, and the marble staircase, soaring gilded ceilings, and shimmering crystal chandeliers showcase the era at its finest. Rooms at this San Francisco budget hotel feature all the usual amenities like TVs with on-demand movies, hair dryers, mini-bars, and free Wi-Fi (a novelty in a city that tries to charge you for everything); plus, there’s a concierge, workout room, two restaurants, and a bar elsewhere in the hotel. Three of Sir Francis Drake’s more famous inhabitants are Scala’s Bistro, an affordable Italian joint that packs a punch with every dish; Harry Denton’s Starlight Room, open nightly for entertainment and dancing, but most known for its Sunday drag brunch; and Tom Sweeney, an amicable doorman outfitted in Beefeater duds.
The Sir Francis Drake offers rates as low as $189/night during quieter months; www.sirfrancisdrake.com.

This hotel was located right off of the highway and was very easy to get to. Also, it was on the edge of town and the streets were less busy here, which is a huge plus considering how hectic the main streets in Wisconsin Dells get during the weekends. The hotel staff was very friendly and quickly checked us into our reservation. They also gave us a map and coupons for attractions in town, which was really nice and we ended up saving a lot of money throughout our stay because of it. We hung the do not disturb sign for our entire trip and no one bothered us. Also, it was very quiet despite the hotel being packed all weekend with families and children; so, the walls were thick and sound proof. The only downside was the condition of the room. There was a red stain on our white bed sheet, which resembled dried blood. Also, there were some hairs on the bathroom floor and the deadbolt on the door was broken. Nonetheless, we greatly enjoyed our stay and thought it was very reasonably priced. I highly suggest taking advantage of the outside pool as well, because it is absolutely beautiful at night. You can see the stars above you and the lighting is very romantic.

You can get a bus from Cardiff bus station (Wood street) to Oxford (Gloucester Green), National Express run four coaches a day. The journey time is between 5 and 6 hours depending on the time you travel, this includes a change at Birmingham coach station, as there are no direct coaches to Oxford. The cost of a return ticket is between 27 and 34 GBP. To book in advance on the secure official website just click the button below:
If you are time rich, but cash poor, you could consider taking Megabus to Oxford via London due to their very cheap fares. Megabus operates 9 buses a day between Cardiff City Centre and Victoria Coach Station where you can connect to the London to Oxford megabus service which is even more frequent. See our London to Oxford section for details of the London to Oxford service. The only problem with this route is that it involves travelling in and out of London which can be very congested and slow so might take much longer than scheduled...
The fastest way to get to Oxford from Cardiff is to get the train from Cardiff Central train station. There are trains every half hour from 6am till 9pm, the train journey time is around 2 hours and requires you to change at Didcot Parkway train station as there are no direct trains. The cost of train ticket in the UK is quite complicated, the best thing to do is to book well in advance and possibly buy a single ticket in either direction. This way you can pay as little as 40 GBP for you ticket rather than 130 - 200 for a peak return ticket. Use the button below to check train times and prices.
If you are travelling to Oxford by car, you have several options on what to do with your car when you get there. If you are only visiting for the day then it is best to use the Oxford Park and Ride facilities (free parking) located North, South, East and West of the city centre. For more detailed information including maps see our guide to the Oxford Park and Ride. If you are just visiting for a few hours then you might want to use one of the car parks located within the City Centre. For more detailed information including maps see our guide to parking in Oxford. If you need to book a rental car when you get to Oxford there are several places to pick up a car. See our guide to renting a car in Oxford .
If you decide you would like to spend a little longer in Oxford to soak up the atmosphere and visit a few more attractions why not check out some of the Oxford Hotel Deals and see if anything takes your fancy?

We stayed here for one night for a quick getaway. The hotel is in an old building that has been restored. The room was clean and of adequate size. Our room was not ready when we arrived, so they moved us to one that was ready, although it was a handicap-accessible room. The best part of the hotel is the location. We walked to several places around downtown with ease. The only real hassle is the parking. If you are ok with valet, it is no problem, otherwise you will need to locate your own parking space or use the garage down the street.
We would definitely stay here again.

Zhuhai is very close to Macao and Hong Kong. Now that the Hong Kong Zhuhai Macao Bridge has been opened, it will be more convenient for the three cities to communicate with each other. As a garden like coastal city, Zhuhai can always be rated as a 'livable city', 'garden city' or 'happy city'. Therefore, there are a lot of tourists here. So, what's the best route for a day tour in Zhuhai?
The best route for one day tour in Zhuhai
D1 Meixi memorial archway tourist area (2 hours) & rarr; stone Expo Garden (2 hours) & rarr; Hong Kong Zhuhai Macao Bridge (2 hours) & rarr; Shijingshan Park (more than 2 hours)
Because you have to visit several scenic spots in a day, you may be nervous. In the morning, you can go to Meixi memorial archway to visit the stone expo garden. Basically, you can refer to the time in the morning. Then you can take a boat tour around Macao in the afternoon. You can see the scenery of Macao and the century project Hong Kong Zhuhai Macao Bridge. Finally, you can go to Shijingshan Park and punch in the legend of fishermen in Zhuhai landmark
There are many bus lines in Zhuhai, all of which are air-conditioned vehicles. They are generally operated by Zhuhai bus company. Starting from the starting price of 2 yuan, Zhuhai Tongda card / Zhongshan tong can enjoy a 10% discount. There are also ships between Zhuhai and Macao at the terminals participating in the Macao island tour. The ticket prices are about 12 Hong Kong dollars, 12.5 Macao dollars and 10 yuan.
It is the most adjacent port to Macao and is located in the north of Zhuhai. There are various hotels of different grades near Gongbei port, which are suitable for tourists who want to go to Macao in the early morning.
Among the local specialties of Zhuhai, seafood accounts for the vast majority, and Hengqin oyster and Doumen specialty heavy shell crab are undoubtedly the most famous specialties in Zhuhai. And the best place to taste seafood is Zhuhai Wanchai seafood street.
I hope this one-day self-help Tour strategy in Zhuhai can help you. Basically, you can only play in the urban area of Zhuhai for one day. If you want to go to Hong Kong or Macao for a turn, you still need to arrange a few more days.

LARGEST EVER CRUISE SHIP BUILT FOR BRITAIN WILL BE A “MODERN CLASSIC”
P&O Cruises today announced that it will expand its fleet with a 141,000-tonne cruise ship, built by Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri, scheduled to enter service in March 2015.
The as-yet-unnamed 3,611-passenger vessel will be the largest in the P&O Cruises fleet, as well as the largest cruise ship built specifically for the British market.
To be built at Fincantieri’s Monfalcone yard, the all-in cost is approximately €155,000 per lower berth. Ushering in an exciting era for P&O Cruises, the ship will offer a stylish and innovative new design and an unprecedented number of passenger facilities, along with many of the brand’s classic and iconic features. Specifications and new product innovations will be announced at a later date.
Commented Micky Arison, Carnival Corporation & plc’s chairman and CEO, “P&O Cruises is Britain’s number one cruise operator, and is synonymous with high quality holidays that celebrate its rich British heritage. The UK continues to be a key growth market and innovative vessels such as this new P&O Cruises ship – targeted specifically to British clientele – underscore our commitment to leading the expansion of this important cruise region. With a progression of highly successful new ships introduced over the last 15 years, P&O Cruises is uniquely experienced in designing vessels to meet the specific needs and aspirations of British passengers. This newly ordered ship will underline P&O Cruises’ position as Britain’s favourite cruise line.”
P&O Cruises Managing Director Carol Marlow said, “This next-generation ship will deliver the ultimate P&O Cruises experience, with ‘sophisticated wows’ and new features to attract thousands of newcomers to our brand, and equally to resonate with existing P&O Cruises passengers by giving them the ‘P&O-ness’ they recognise and love. She will offer ‘the best of the best,’ combining the favourite classic features of Oriana and Aurora, the choice and variety of Azura and Ventura, and a host of new ideas and concepts which together will deliver to our passengers the holiday of a lifetime, every time they travel with us.”

My friend and I spent the last night of a 9 day trip to Kerala earlier this month (Jan 2013). The warm family went out of their way to make us feel as comfortable as possible, and ensured that we had a complete immersion in their surroundings as well as some of the best meals we had in our entire trip.
We were the only two guests staying there that night, and we learned that our hosts, Johnny and Seena, keep it that way. They only take guests periodically, and rarely have more than two rooms occupied when they do. This means that the place is very quiet and relaxing, and also allows the guests to get to know the family really well.
They went out of their way to show us how to fish, show us all the different fruits and flowers growing on their property, and even how Toddy (the local drink) is extracted from coconut trees.
The location is certainly off the beaten path, but very nicely located in the heart of the backwaters. Because of this it is very quiet and beautiful, though wonderfully maintained with en-suite bathrooms, hot water, air conditioning, a common room and lots of activities to keep you busy. And as others have said, Seena's home cooked meals were really among the best of our trip, if not the best.
While internet access is not available through WiFi, they do have a PC that can be used.
I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to disconnect and enjoy the nature of the backwaters with a very warm and welcoming family.

Dolphins are friendly and social animals that enjoy interacting with people. At our marine mammal facility on Isla Mujeres, participants can embrace, shake hands, smooch, and pet the resident dolphins. This activity is the perfect option for younger visitors or folks who may be uncomfortable swimming in the pool with the dolphins. The shallow platform will make kids feel safer while engaging with a large mammal. Although the dolphins are very gentle and friendly, they are still quite sizable.
These charming cetaceans are pleased to engage with the patrons at our Isla Mujeres compound. Participants are sure to be enthralled with the personalities of these sociable creatures. The resident dolphins are quite vocal; you are sure to hear them vocalize a lovely dolphin song. Our professional animal trainers enjoy telling visitors all about these intriguing cetaceans. You will learn how to communicate with the dolphin through hand gestures. You can tell the dolphins to perform tricks and play ball games with your newly learned signals. At the end of this activity participants will have an opportunity to spend some free time to interact with the dolphins. We limit the number of participants on this tour to fifteen in order to allow everyone a chance for time with these amazing dolphins.
This is a great tour for families to enjoy together. Kids older than the age of one can participate in this activity as long as they are joined by a paying adult.
This tour also includes a fun biking sightseeing tour around the lovely island.

"good place to stay before catching a flight home"
Great place to stay before catching a flight from Olbia airport. You can't get lost in the morning as you can see the planes from the hotel ( though it isn't too noisy).. Lovely pool to cool off in after a long drive, restaurant looks great but we opted for the cheaper pizza place across the road. You could walk to the airport in ten minutes from here. Reception happy to print off boarding passes - computers for guest use in reception at no extra charge.
Really good breakfast buffet.
Great hotel with fantastic staff. Helpful but not intrusive and always cheerful. We would definitely stay here again and also would recommend to friends.
Stayed for a week and is perfectly located to explore Sardinia.

Functional clean hotel used by tour groups. Welcoming and helpful staff. Very convenient to the Old Town with plenty of restaurants close by. We had no problem finding roadside parking within 100m of the hotel but the hotel also offers garage parking at €8/day. Fridge provided in room.
The hotel was an interesting building and a good mix of character and comfort. The staff were very welcoming and professional and really made sure that I had all the information that I needed to get around Olbia. The breakfasts were fantastic - a vast choice and good quality food. A really good place to stay.
I am a young American female traveling through Europe for a year, after a long four months, I made a spur of the moment decision and flew over to Sardinia from Rome... Not doing any research about the place. Upon arrival, the hotel staff was more than willing to act as my your guide (for an American that doesn't speak much Italian, this welcoming is few and far between) anyways, I had such a great three days here, that I stayed for three more. Upon until the minute I left, everyone was helpful and accommodating. The room was clean, with mini bar, tv, and a BEAUTIFUL view from my balcony. The rooms were cleaned everyday to perfection. Breakfast is included. It's Small, but still a nice touch. It is a 20-25 minute walk to the center of Olbia. Or a 10-15 minute bus ride which you can pick up directly outside of the hotel. Overall great stay, hotel is nice, but the staff made it that much better. Cheers!

I recently visited with a friend for a 4 night mini break. Just 15 minutes from the airport, this small, intimate hotel has everything you need. Simple,comfortable rooms. Direct access to a private beach, and incredibly helpful and friendly staff. On a short break there is no need to leave the hotel as you can enjoy breakfast al fresco; drinks and snacks throughout the day and a small but excellent evening menu.,there are, apparently, a couple of restaurants within easy walking distance ( we didn't try them!) and we did hire a car to travel around the island one day.. As a room tip, book one in the beach house, otherwise you can ONLY have access to beach sunbeds...in the beach house rooms ( a little more expensive) you can also use the loungers in the lovely garden area. Just a little gem of a hotel.

The Costa Smeralda’s main arrival point, Olbia is one of Sardinia’s oldest towns, although much of it is now modern and sprawling. But the cobbled lanes in the old part of town around the Corso Umberto are full of good restaurants and some pretty piazzas to linger in over a drink. Olbia’s only real monument is the granite Romanesque church San Simplicio. Nearby are the prehistoric Nuraghi sites around Arzachena.

Lovely older hotel in Coral Gables.Posted Aug 7, 2015
Pros: Charming older hotel in one of the nicest neighborhoods of Miami. Very professional and friendly staff.
Cons: They were having a problem with the alarm system and it rang in my daughter's room at 2:00 a.m. I would have expected them to either have fixed this.
Location: University of Miami and MIA (airport).
Charming hotel in lovely area of Coral Gables. Very convenient for visiting the University of Miami and traveling from the airport.

Nice hotel. Horrible staff.Posted Jul 31, 2015
During the week of my stay, the hotel was hosting guests for the Univision TV channel. The staff, including management gave Univision guests preference over everyone else. I was rudely asked to leave the lobby because that area was restricted for Univision guests only. I didn't not see any signs stating it was a restricted area. I felt attacked by the way security asked me to leave. I talked to the general manager who refuse to give me his name, he was the most the most arrogant person I have ever talked to. He clearly stated that Univision guests where his priority and he had no time to listen to my complaint. He simply didn't not care on how disepecfuly I was treated. I asked to speak to the person above him and he told me that would be the CEO. He said to not waste my time because the CEO had no time to listens to stupidities. I was harassed and discriminated by the hotel staff and the general manager considered my complain a stupidity! I do not recommend anyone to stay in this hotel. They care and cater for big business only not for the average client. On the positive side one person at reception was polite and understanding. She apoligized on behave of the general manager and said he usually acts that way and can't not deal with complaints. I wonder how he can be trusted to be general manager?!

disappointed by the lack of considerationPosted Jun 1, 2015 on Hotels
my husband and I looked forward to a wonderful stay at this landmark property. The hotel is beautiful old world. We howe(shared wall). After four (4) staff visits and phone calls to the inconsiderate suite, the occupants were finally relocated. Though our respite and quiet enjoyment were not achieved, the hotel should have comp or at least refunded 1/2 the room rate. Disappointed that a property with an otherwise stellar rating failed to immediately correct the issue and not consider the impact to other guests and attempt to make us whole.

Anniversary Weekend in the Gables!Posted May 18, 2015
Historic and elegant! Spent a wonderful weekend at the Biltmore. Have stayed here multiple times and its gets better each time. Outside of the busy poolside service for Mother's Day, which is to be expected, how can you complain about staying at one the best places in the State.

Published: Tuesday 9th Dec 2014
Written by: Betheny Ellis
From farm-based retreats and romantic getaways to lakeside lodges and hilltop look-outs, those seeking the great outdoors are guaranteed to find an English country cottage that ticks all their boxes. Such is the range of superb rural properties that you’ll be spoilt for choice. Here is a taster of ten from around the country:

Situated on the edge of an RSPB nature reserve, the spacious Old Dairy House has so much to offer the outdoor enthusiast. Sleeping up to eight people, there are walks leading towards Poole Harbour straight from the property while the whole area is rich in nature walks and coastal paths. Even the house’s large garden will keep active types busy with its rope swings and trampoline.

Surrounded by farmland and grazing meadows, Chez Moo’s rural location is perfect for holidaymakers looking to get out into the wonderful Kent countryside. This attractive property sleeps five and has a real country cottage feel – an extremely welcoming place to return to after exploring the many local footpaths or the nearby beaches at Camber Sands

A number of villages and towns, such as Lynton and Lynmouth, are a short distance away – but you might just want to stay put and enjoy the walking and fishing that is right on your doorstep.
Porters Lodge - Lenwade, Norfolk countryside
A wonderful waterside hideaway, Porters Lodge sits next to a lake and is surrounded by woodland and open space. Inside, it is modern and airy; outside, guests can take advantage of a private decking area and pass the time watching the plentiful birdlife that regularly visit the spot. A great place for cyclists and walkers, the two-bed property is near a host of paths and trails.

Immaculately furnished and with an open fire in the lounge, holidaymakers who like walking can simply don their boots and head for the fells without needing to get into the car. The whole area has much to occupy the active – cycling, climbing and canoeing being just some of the activities available in the area.
Lodge Farm - Freston, Heart of Suffolk
Fantastic Lodge Farm is made up of three linked self-catering cottages, which together can accommodate up to twelve people. Beautifully furnished, the property is located on a working farm situated within the Suffolk Coast & Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The Barn - Ruswarp, Whitby, North Yorkshire coast
A stunning, luxury property surrounded by wonderful countryside, The Barn sleeps six and offers a wonderful holiday location for those looking for a peaceful spot near the North Yorkshire Coast.

Loud Mythom Barn - Chipping, Lancashire
With hillside views and riverside walks on the doorstep, Loud Mythorn Barn is just the property for a large family or group of friends to get away from it all in the Lancashire countryside. Sleeping eight and beautifully decorated, this wonderful holiday cottage also features a fireplace with a wood burning stove. Footpaths and bridleways criss-cross the area and a nearby natural pool is a great spot for a picnic or a dip.
Ochr y Foel- Trefriw, Conwy, Wales
Ochr y Foel is a stunning traditional Welsh cottage in a striking part of the Snowdonia National Park, it has been lovingly decorated to offer a cosy and traditional holiday home, surrounded by some of Mother Nature’s greatest achievements. Nestled away, nearly 3 miles from the nearest village of Trefriw this cottage is the ideal place from which to get outside and take in lungs full of fresh air or undertake a bracing dip from its own lake shore beach. Incredible views expanding over Llyn Crafnant make the great outdoors impossible to ignore.

Do all inclusive resorts include flights?
All-inclusive resorts vary the benefits they include in their all-inclusive vacation package. This is possible because when you pay for your vacation package, often this includes everything from flights and airport transfer, to luxury accommodation, meals, and entertainment.
Can you book all inclusive with Chase points?
If you’ve got extra Chase Ultimate Rewards points to burn, you’ll find a Hyatt all-inclusive in Cancun recommended below that’s also a great value usage of your points. These two paired will get you an entire vacation package for free.
Depending on the resort and timeshare brand, properties can have mandatory or optional all inclusive packages, which may result in additional all inclusive fees. Take your time to learn these details within a timeshare contract before purchasing to know exactly what you’ll be receiving during your future stays!
Where is the safest all inclusive resort?
- Excellence Playa Mujeres, Cancun.
- Sanctuary Cap Cana, Dominican Republic.
- The Caves, Jamaica.
- Jade Mountain, St. Lucia.
- Komandoo Maldives Island Resort.
- Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Resort & Spa, Cabo San Lucas.
- UNICO 20˚87˚ Riviera Maya, Mexico.
- COMO Parrot Cay, Turks and Caicos.
Is all-inclusive per person or per room?
Rates are based on number of people in the room and ages if kids are involved. Not like a traditional hotel where rate is often the same for 1-3 adults. It is not about the room, which is a fixed cost – it is about the all inclusive.
Is all-inclusive really worth it?
Unlike many other types of vacations, an all-inclusive resort rolls the vast majority of your trip costs into a single up-front price. There are relatively few hidden fees, and you may not even have to worry about tipping. If you’re not going to take advantage of them, this vacation option might not be worth it.
Can I book Marriott all inclusive with points?
It is possible to use Marriott Bonvoy points to redeem for an award stay at Marriott all-inclusive resorts. Currently, all Marriott all-inclusive resorts are Category 8 properties within Marriott Bonvoy program.
Usually, it includes food, drinks, and some or all activities. However, many services and amenities will cost you an extra fee. However, keep in mind that your fee only covers food at the resort. So, you need to make sure the resort offers the dining experiences you want.
A timeshare is a shared ownership model of vacation real estate in which multiple purchasers own allotments of usage, typically in one-week increments, in the same property. The timeshare model can be applied to many different types of properties, such as vacation resorts, condominiums, apartments, and campgrounds.
including Sandals, SuperClubs and Club Med? don’t sell timeshares, they’re big business in certain areas. Often the sales pitch is so aggressive that you can’t even enjoy your vacation.
Where is the best place to go all inclusive?
The 18 Best Bang-for-Your-Buck All-Inclusive Resorts EVER
- Solmar Resort, Los Cabos.
- Grand Palladium Jamaica Resort & Spa.
- El Cozumeleno Beach Resort, Cozumel.
- Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.
- Royal Solaris Los Cabos.
- Samba Vallarta – All Inclusive, Puerto Vallarta.
What is the friendliest Caribbean island?
Saba. Though it’s one of the lesser known islands, Saba is just as beautiful and welcoming as the other—and was voted the friendliest island in the Caribbean.
Which is better Cancun or Punta Cana?
With lush green surroundings, Punta Cana feels more like a tropical paradise, and has a more authentic vibe than Cancun. There’s a great nightlife scene here as well, and the resorts tend to be cheaper. Plus, if you’re adventurous there’s some wonderful excursions away from the tourist hotspots.

Airport Tips for Business Travellers
To work or not to work? Advice from your international business mobile provider
Airports can be stressful, we feel your pain. Security queues, passport checks and a mass of people to contend with is never fun - and that's without a delayed flight. If you're travelling for work, you'll want to make your journey as smooth as possible. It's important you arrive at your destination fresh and ready to face the important tasks that lie ahead.
As providers of international business mobile plans to clients across the globe, Truphone know a thing or two about relieving airport stress and making your time in transit more constructive. Accordingly, we thought we'd share our knowledge ahead of your next flight.
• Make use of valet parking options or take a taxi to avoid stress
• Arrive early to account for security queues
• Pack light to avoid check-in queues
• Make use of business lounges if you've got long transfers or delays
• Use your international mobile plan when you arrive to arrange transport from the airport
Taxi or parking?
Your method of arrival will depend on the time of your flight and your schedule, but there are benefits to both of these. Driving to the airport and parking can offer more flexibility, however parking can be expensive and some car parks require a shuttle bus to the terminal itself. We'd recommend taking the car if valet parking is an option, but this can often come at a premium and requires advanced booking.
Taxis are often the best method of travel, but you should always remember you're putting your journey in someone else's control which can be a stress in itself. It's also worth considering the return journey - will you need your car? If not, then taxis both ways will allow you to unwind without worrying about the stress of driving after a long and arduous journey.
How early should you arrive for your flight?
The answer to the above question depends on your feelings about airports. There are two ways of looking at the situation:
a) Arrive a couple of hours in advance of your flight. Unwind in the departure lounge with a coffee, maybe do a little work and enjoy some shopping. This option isn't for everyone and the more you travel, the less you may come to appreciate airports.
b) Arrive the minimum amount of time to comfortably get through security and board the plan straight away. This will reduce the amount of time your journey takes, but it can be stressful if you hit traffic en route or you encounter long security queues.
The departure lounge
If you opt to arrive early and unwind, you'll want to make the most of the mobile signal before your flight takes off. Make some final calls to the office or catch up on your emails whilst you can. You might also benefit from utilising the facilities that the airport has to offer.
Many airports have business lounges allowing you to use desks and Wi-Fi, which are always worthwhile - particularly if you encounter delays. There might also be relaxation areas that allow you to get some rest if you have a long wait in between transfers.
When you touch down, the absence of hold luggage will ensure you breeze past any further wait times or queues. If the airport has the option between electronic passport checks or manned checks, you'll save time by using the manned ones. Many people are still working out how to use the electronic system and this can leave you queuing longer than anticipated.
You'll also want to use your international mobile plan and roaming free data to access your emails, making potential plans for your onward journey. Check your appointment schedule and ensure that there's no changes to your business engagements. Apps such as Google Trips help you plan all aspects of your journey in one handy to manage folder.
Following a long flight, you'll want to ensure the next leg of your journey runs smooth. Rent-a-cars have many benefits for business travellers, but we recommend downloading an app such as Kayak that makes the process straight forward. It's also worth ensuring you have a good navigation app; put your international mobile plan to good use and download an app like Waze get you from A to B.
If you opt for taxi transport, Uber will ensure that you don't get overcharged for the fare and the card payment can be useful if you don't have local currency when you touch down. It's recommended that you avoid booking taxi transfers in advance unless you know the company well. Variables such as flight delays can cause these to be unreliable, whilst most airports have an abundance of taxis waiting at the terminal doors.
Travelling with Truphone
It's impossible to predict exactly how each individual flight will go and the odd delayed flight or backlogged security line is often unavoidable. What can be avoided, however, is paying extortionate roaming fees. With Truphone, the days of roaming charges are a thing of the past. Head over to our site to see our range of international mobile plans for professionals and businesses for more information on how we can assist with your business travels.

Specialists in High Volume Accommodation, Create Construction, part of the North-West Development experts Create Group, has just completed the build of this prestigious Manchester hotel project, working alongside their sister company Create Developments, who provided the developments expertise.
The £17.5M Hampton by Hilton hotel development, designed by TG Architects, was a joint venture between Hilton, Create Developments, Create Construction, Maven Capital Partners, IP Investment Management and RBH Hospitality Management.
Situated in the fashionable Northern Quarter of Manchester, it is the first Hampton by Hilton property in the centre of the city, joining 50 other local hotels trading or under development.
With an contemporary brick façade and fashionable interior scheme echoing the history of the area, the 221-room hotel will provide high quality accommodation for tourists visiting the city to enjoy shopping, museums, theatres, sporting & music events, as well as facilitating the vast range of businesses in the locality and for guests on the Hilton loyalty program.
The hotel has a restaurant, bar and gym, as well as private floors and meeting room facilities and will be offering a choice of both Queen and Queen family rooms, all with desks, flat screen TVs and floor to ceiling windows with city views.
Adrian Tottey, Managing Director of Create Construction commented: “Congratulations to the Create Team for completing this outstanding hotel project. The Covid-19 pandemic created a challenging environment during the build and it is a credit to the professionalism and expertise of the team that the hotel has been finished to such a high standard."
Hampton by Hilton Manchester Northern Quarter will managed by the UK’s leading independent hotel management company RBH.
Andrew Robb, Chief Business Development Officer at RBH, said: “We are delighted to receive the keys for Hampton by Hilton Manchester Northern Quarter and welcome our team. It’s been great to work alongside Create on this project and we look forward to the next chapter for the hotel.”

Keywords: 3 Bedroom/2 Baths House
The home is located on a nice quiet street only a short drive from upscale restaurants and shops . I came to Scottsdale for work so I wanted be be near conveniences and restaurants . The home was exactly what I was looking for . The back yard has a 6' wall and is very private. I used the jacuzzi one night and it worked great . I would say the description and pictures are very accurate . I don't cook much , but the kitchen seemed to have all the essentials a renter would need for an extended stay . I will be recommending this home and will certainly return .
My brother and I booked Redfield home for a quick family gathering. Great place - great location. Close to shopping and many restaurants.
Great neighborhood! quite, clean, nice. House ok, although bathrooms need some details to be fixed. Pool great! deepest domestic pool I ever seen, great fun for me (1.94mts tall) and our teenager kids. It should be reaching around 2.30mts deep at its deepest place! My younger kids, eventhough it also has a child deep area, learned better swimming skills thanks to it. Spa good, good temperature. We could not find (or did not work) pool lights. Everything else great. Near many places: mal, shoppings, main streets and highways, walmart, target etc.
We stayed in this property the last week of Feb and 1st week of Mar 2014. The property met our needs very nicely. The pool area was very nice and accommodating, the rest of the house was just right for the family. We walked to several local attractions and appreciated the low traffic immediate neighborhood as well as the proximity to major traffic arteries. Nice place to stay.
My husband and I stayed at your Redfield property for our niece's wedding in Arizona. We absolutely loved the home. It is so cozy and decorated so nicely! We found the cost of us staying in Redfield vs a hotel was one of the deciding factors of booking a home, but next time we book, we will definitely book a home after our experience here at Redfield.
The billiard room was a great entertaining area for family and the pool and backyard were nice in the Arizona sun. Nice furnishings and linens. Just about everything I could expect to find in my own home and more. Thanks so much for letting us stay in your home.
