Welcome to CC Backpack

So you’re going to the Hills District of Sydney. You’ve selected this destination and now you need to select a hotel. 10 years back, you ‘d have probably visited your local travel agent and trusted the face-to-face 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 using travel sites.
But how do you sort through the amazing choices available? And more notably, do you truly rely on the photographs and descriptions of the hotels that they have granted themselves with the motivation of getting reservations?
Traveler reviews can be handy, but you need to exercise care. They are frequently biased, in some cases out of date, and may not serve your interests at all. How do you know that the features that are very important to the reviewer are very important to you? Then there’s the issue of the reviewer’s motivation. The more reviews you check out, the more you see how they tend to cluster at the extremes of opinion. On one end, you have upset customers with axes to grind; at the other, you have delighted guests who lavish praise beyond belief.
You’ll not be surprised to learn that hotels in some cases post their own glowing reviews or that competitor’s line up for the chance to lambaste the competitors with bad reviews. It makes sense to consider what is truly crucial to you when selecting a hotel. You should then select an online hotel directory site that gives up-to-date, independent, unbiased info that truly matters.

Here are a few of the key realities you should keep 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 vital. Any good directory site should offer a location map of the hotel and its surroundings. There should be distance charts to the airport offered as well as some type of an interactive map.

2. Style: it is necessary to select a hotel that makes you feel comfortable – contemporary or conventional furnishings, local decor or international, formal or relaxed. The perfect hotel directory site should let you know of the options offered.

3. Restaurants, Cafes, and Bars: local color is terrific but the hotel’s own restaurants and bars can play an important part in your stay. You should be aware of choice, style and whether or not they are clever or casual. A good hotel report should tell you this, and especially about breakfast facilities.

4. Bedroom Facilities: you should always carefully consider the type of facilities you need from your bedroom and find a hotel that has those you consider crucial. The hotel directory site 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 smoking or non-smoking rooms, etc

. These things truly do matter and any good hotel directory site should provide you this sort of guidance on bedrooms – not just the variety of rooms which is the typical alternative!

5. Children’s’ Facilities: more crucial to the family tourist than the business tourist. You should discover just how child-friendly the hotel is from the directory site and make your decision from there. Something worth searching for is whether the hotel offers a babysitter service. For the business tourist wishing to leave children, this is obviously extremely appropriate too – maybe 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, pool, fitness center, sauna – as well as details of any other facilities nearby 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 definitely important to some.

Finally and most importantly, the quality hotel directory site evaluation 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 truly in a strong position to write 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!
