Welcome to CC Backpack

So you’re going to the Hills District of Sydney. You’ve selected this destination and now you need to pick a hotel. Ten years back, you ‘d have probably visited your local travel representative and relied on the in person recommendations you were offered by the so-called ‘experts’. The 21st Century way to pick and book your hotel is of course on the Internet, by using travel websites.
But how do you sift through the fantastic choices on offer? And more importantly, do you really trust the photos and descriptions of the hotels that they have granted themselves with the motivation of getting reservations?
Traveler reviews can be useful, but you need to exercise caution. They are frequently prejudiced, sometimes out of date, and may not serve your interests at all. How do you know that the features that are necessary to the customer are necessary to you? Then there’s the problem of the customer’s motivation. The more reviews you read, the more you observe 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 guests who lavish appreciation beyond belief.
You’ll not be surprised to find out that hotels sometimes 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 really essential to you when choosing a hotel. You should then pick an online hotel directory site that gives current, independent, unbiased information that truly matters.

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

1. Location: if it matters that your hotel is, for instance, near to the amusement park, or convenient for the airport, then location is critical. 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 important to pick a hotel that makes you feel comfortable – modern or conventional furnishings, local design or international, official or relaxed. The ideal hotel directory site should let you know of the choices available.

3. Restaurants, Coffee Shops, and Bars: local color is great 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 smart or casual. A great 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 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 high-end offerings like a Pillow menu or Bath menu, choice of smoking or non-smoking rooms, etc

. These things really do matter and any good hotel directory site should offer you this sort of recommendations on bed rooms – not just the variety of rooms which is the typical option!

5. Children’s’ Facilities: more important to the family traveler than the business traveler. You should discover just how child-friendly the hotel is from the directory site and make your decision from there. Something worth looking for is whether the hotel offers a baby sitter service. For the business traveler wishing to escape children, this is of course very relevant too – possibly a hotel that is not child-friendly would be something more appropriate!

6. Leisure Facilities: the site should offer a detailed analysis of leisure services within the hotel – spa, pool, health club, 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 absolutely vital to some.

Finally and most importantly, the quality hotel directory site evaluation team should have checked out the hotel in question on a regular basis, met the personnel, 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 really in a strong position to write about the hotel.
with the above info, there is no reason why you should not find the very best hotel in the Hills District of Sydney. All the best!
