Van room with a view

Hotel is comfortable situated near the Expo Center Norte but getting to the city center (Cathedral) is difficult with traffic. In Sao Paulo there is most of the time traffic. The rooms are kind of dated and need renovation. Service is fine.

Simple, clean and low-cost. Have your breakfast elsewhere. The view from my room was wonderful as you can see. Check out the previous view from Ibis Gent Belgium and you become a trendwatcher!

Novotel close to the airport and the exhibition center "Feria de Madrid". You can get easy to the city center and to the airport by Metro, the station is very close. It is a clean business hotel. The Novotel hotels in Spain are generally better than in France

hotel playa calamayor, palma de mallorca, spain; room 409

This hotel is a time machine which takes you straight back to the seventies. I think nothing has changed since then. It is clean though and the original crew is polite and helpful. The view is absolutely great.

van der valk hotel, hildesheim, germany; room 112

I regularly stay in this hotel. It used to be Le Meridien, Van der Valk took it over and renovated the rooms quiet nice. If you plan to stay at this hotel I recommend a room with view on the market square, that is much better than this.

Excellent hotel, excellent service and a great room. Business stay for 4 nights but the staff makes you feel like you are on holiday. The high tower at the horizon is the famous Busj Khalifa
