Welcome to CC Backpack

So you’re going to the Hills District of Sydney. You’ve chosen this location and now you have to pick a hotel. Ten years back, you ‘d have probably visited your local travel representative and trusted the in person guidance you were given by the so-called ‘experts’. The 21st Century way to choose and book your hotel is obviously on the Internet, by utilizing travel websites.
But how do you sort through the incredible options available? And more importantly, do you actually rely on the photos and descriptions of the hotels that they have awarded themselves with the motivation of getting reservations?
Traveler reviews can be valuable, but you need to exercise care. They are often prejudiced, in some cases out of date, and may not serve your interests at all. How do you know that the features that are essential to the reviewer are essential to you? Then there’s the issue of the reviewer’s motivation. The more reviews you read, the more you notice how they tend to cluster at the extremes of opinion. On one end, you have angry reviewers with axes to grind; at the other, you have happy guests who lavish appreciation beyond belief.
You’ll not be surprised to find out that hotels in some cases publish their own radiant reviews or that rival’s line up for the chance to lambaste the competitors with bad reviews. It makes good sense to consider what is actually essential to you when picking a hotel. You should then pick an online hotel directory that gives updated, independent, objective info that really matters.

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

1. Location: if it matters that your hotel is, for example, close to the theme park, or convenient for the airport, then location is critical. Any decent directory should offer a location map of the hotel and its surroundings. There should be distance charts to the airport offered in addition to some form of an interactive map.

2. Style: it is very important to pick a hotel that makes you feel comfy – contemporary or traditional furnishings, local decor or international, official or relaxed. The perfect hotel directory should let you know of the choices offered.

3. Restaurants, Coffee Shops, and Bars: local color is terrific but the hotel’s own restaurants and bars can play a vital part in your stay. You should be aware of choice, style and whether or not they are clever or informal. An excellent hotel report should tell you this, and particularly about breakfast facilities.

4. Bedroom Facilities: you should constantly thoroughly consider the type 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 facilities, views from the room and luxury offerings like a Pillow menu or Bath menu, choice of cigarette smoking or non-smoking spaces, and so on

. These things actually do matter and any decent hotel directory should provide you this sort of guidance on bed rooms – not just the number of spaces which is the typical choice!

5. Children’s’ Facilities: more important to the household tourist than business tourist. You should find out 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 business tourist wanting to escape children, this is obviously really pertinent too – possibly a hotel that is not child-friendly would be something better suited!

6. Leisure Facilities: the site should offer a detailed analysis of leisure services within the hotel – spa, swimming pool, gym, sauna – in addition to details of any other facilities close by such as golf courses.

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

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