Welcome to CC Backpack

So you’re going to the Hills District of Sydney. You’ve selected this destination and now you have to choose a hotel. 10 years ago, you ‘d have most likely visited your local travel agent and relied on the face-to-face advice you were given by the so-called ‘experts’. The 21st Century way to choose and book your hotel is obviously on the Internet, by using travel sites.
But how do you sort through the incredible options on offer? And more notably, do you actually trust the photos and descriptions of the hotels that they have granted themselves with the motivation of getting reservations?
Traveler reviews can be helpful, but you need to exercise caution. They are frequently prejudiced, in some cases out of date, and might not serve your interests at all. How do you understand that the functions that are necessary to the customer are necessary to you? Then there’s the issue of the customer’s motivation. The more reviews you read, the more you see how they tend to cluster at the extremes of viewpoint. On one end, you have angry customers with axes to grind; at the other, you have pleased visitors who lavish praise beyond belief.
You’ll not be surprised to learn that hotels in some cases publish their own glowing reviews or that competitor’s line up for the chance to lambaste the competition with bad reviews. It makes sense to consider what is actually essential to you when selecting a hotel. You should then choose an online hotel directory that provides current, independent, objective information that really matters.

Here are some of the key realities you should bear in mind: 

1. Location: if it matters that your hotel is, for instance, close to the theme park, or convenient for the airport, then location is critical. Any good directory should offer a location map of the hotel and its environs. There should be distance charts to the airport provided along with some type of an interactive map.

2. Style: it is important to choose a hotel that makes you feel comfy – modern or conventional furnishings, local decor or international, official or relaxed. The perfect hotel directory should let you understand of the alternatives offered.

3. Restaurants, Cafes, and Bars: local color is great but the hotel’s own restaurants and bars can play a fundamental part in your stay. You should be aware of choice, style and whether they are wise or casual. An excellent hotel report should tell you this, and particularly about breakfast facilities.

4. Bedroom Facilities: you should constantly carefully consider the kind of facilities you need from your bedroom and find a hotel that has those you consider essential. The hotel directory should elaborate on matters such as bed size, Internet Access (its cost, whether there is WIFI or wired broadband connection), Complimentary amenities, views from the room and luxury offerings like a Pillow menu or Bath menu, choice of cigarette smoking or non-smoking rooms, and so on

. These things actually do matter and any good hotel directory should offer you this sort of advice on bedrooms – not just the number of rooms which is the typical option!

5. Children’s’ Facilities: more important to the family traveler than the business traveler. You should learn just how child-friendly the hotel is from the directory and make your decision from there. Something worth looking for is whether the hotel offers a babysitter service. For the business traveler wanting to leave children, this is obviously really pertinent too – possibly a hotel that is not child-friendly would be something better!

6. Leisure Facilities: the site should offer a comprehensive analysis of leisure services within the hotel – spa, swimming pool, gym, sauna – along with details of any other facilities nearby such as golf courses.

7. Special Needs: the hotel directory site should recommend the visitor of each hotel’s special needs services and accessibility policy. Whilst again this does not apply to every visitor, it is definitely essential to some.

Lastly and most notably, the quality hotel directory inspection team should have visited the hotel in question on a regular basis, met the staff, slept in a bedroom and tasted the food. They should experience the hotel as only a hotel visitor can and it is only then that they are actually in a strong position to blog about the hotel.
with the above details, there is no reason why you should not find the best hotel in the Hills District of Sydney. Good luck!
