Karen O Posted June 9, 2009 Author Report Posted June 9, 2009 Thanks, Thereuare.How do European hotels match up in regard to a 3.5* rating?If I go ahead with this booking, I'll certainly do it through this site, and also post my findings.KO
thereuare Posted June 10, 2009 Report Posted June 10, 2009 I think the general concensus is that you can deduct a half a star from European star ratings to equate to their US counterparts. I would expect a 3.5* european hotel to be clean and 'full service', but may be lacking a few amenities or 'luxuries' (like high thread count sheets, towels to be 'basic', etc)Thanks for using our HOTWIRE link if you do purchase the above.Let us know whatever you decide.

Changed up the dates to July 18 - 20 (two nights) still for 3 people. Today they were offering the hotel for $59 a night. Two nights total with charges $138. Just going to hop on their website now.Add this to the "Now We Know" hotel list!Happy travels, All.KO

AaronJB Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 Thank you so much for using the site's HOTWIRE link to extend your stay. Glad you were able to get the same hotel via HOTWIRE.Enjoy your stay.
Karen O Posted January 12, 2010 Author Report Posted January 12, 2010 I know it's long after the fact, but thought I'd add a side note about this hotel. Apparently shuttle access offered by this hotel is horrible. Times were random and then not reliable. It's not close to anything, so the shuttle service is necessary. The only positive for the girls was the pool. Happy Travels,KO
thereuare Posted January 13, 2010 Report Posted January 13, 2010 Thanks for the feedback on this hotel... sorry to hear this property fell short of your expectations.Hope your future wins are better.
