Welcome to CC Backpack

So you’re going to the Hills District of Sydney. You’ve chosen this destination and now you need to select a hotel. Ten years back, you ‘d have most likely visited your local travel agent and relied on the in person guidance you were given by the so-called ‘experts’. The 21st Century way to pick and book your hotel is obviously on the Internet, by utilizing travel sites.
But how do you sort through the fantastic options available? And more notably, do you really trust 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 They are typically biased, sometimes out of date, and might not serve your interests at all. How do you understand that the functions that are very important to the reviewer are very important to you? Then there’s the problem of the reviewer’s motivation. The more reviews you check out, the more you observe how they tend to cluster at the extremes of viewpoint. On one end, you have upset customers with axes to grind; at the other, you have pleased guests who lavish appreciation beyond belief.
You’ll not be shocked to find out that hotels sometimes publish their own glowing reviews or that competitor’s line up for the chance to lambaste the competitors with bad reviews. It makes good sense to consider what is really important to you when picking a hotel. You should then select an online hotel directory that provides current, independent, unbiased info that really matters.

Here are a few of the key facts you should remember: 

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

2. Style: it is essential to select a hotel that makes you feel comfortable – contemporary or conventional furnishings, local design 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 excellent 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 wise or casual. A great hotel report should tell you this, and especially 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 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 amenities, views from the room and high-end offerings like a Pillow menu or Bath menu, choice of cigarette smoking or non-smoking spaces, and so on

. These things really do matter and any good hotel directory should give you this sort of guidance on bedrooms – not just the variety of spaces which is the usual option!

5. Children’s’ Facilities: more important to the household tourist than the business tourist. You should learn just how child-friendly the hotel is from the directory and make your decision from there. Something worth searching for is whether the hotel offers a baby sitter service. For the business tourist wishing to escape children, this is obviously very appropriate too – maybe a hotel that is not child-friendly would be something more appropriate!

6. Leisure Facilities: the site should offer an in-depth analysis of leisure services within the hotel – spa, pool, health club, sauna – along with 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 again this does not apply to every visitor, it is definitely important to some.

Lastly and most notably, the quality hotel directory assessment 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 blog about the hotel.
with the above info, there is no reason why you shouldn’t find the best hotel in the Hills District of Sydney. All the best!
