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 agent and trusted the face-to-face advice you were provided by the so-called ‘experts’. The 21st Century way to pick and book your hotel is obviously on the Internet, by using travel sites.
But how do you sift through the fantastic options on offer? And more significantly, do you truly trust the photographs and descriptions of the hotels that they have awarded themselves with the inspiration of getting bookings?
Traveler reviews can be helpful, but you need to exercise caution. They are often prejudiced, sometimes out of date, and may not serve your interests at all. How do you know that the functions that are very important to the customer are very important to you? Then there’s the problem of the customer’s inspiration. The more reviews you read, the more you notice how they tend to cluster at the extremes of viewpoint. 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 sometimes post their own radiant 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 important to you when picking a hotel. You should then pick an online hotel directory that offers current, independent, impartial info that truly matters.

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

1. Location: if it matters that your hotel is, for example, close to the amusement park, or convenient for the airport, then location is critical. Any good 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 type of an interactive map.

2. Style: it is very important to pick a hotel that makes you feel comfortable – modern or standard furnishings, local decor or international, formal or relaxed. The perfect hotel directory should let you know of the alternatives readily available.

3. Restaurants, Coffee Shops, and Bars: local color is terrific 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 or not they are smart or casual. A good hotel report should tell you this, and particularly about breakfast facilities.

4. Bedroom Facilities: you should always thoroughly consider the type of facilities you need from your bedroom and find a hotel that has those you consider important. The hotel directory should elaborate on matters such as bed size, Internet Access (its cost, whether there is WIFI or wired broadband connection), Complimentary features, 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 truly do matter and any good hotel directory should give 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 tourist than the business tourist. You should learn just how child-friendly the hotel is from the directory and make your decision from there. One thing worth looking for is whether the hotel offers a baby sitter service. For the business tourist wishing to leave children, this is obviously very pertinent too – perhaps a hotel that is not child-friendly would be something better suited!

6. Leisure Facilities: the site should offer a comprehensive 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 recommend 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 notably, the quality hotel directory 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 blog about the hotel.
with the above information, there is no reason why you shouldn’t find the best hotel in the Hills District of Sydney. All the best!
