Welcome to CC Backpack

So you’re going to the Hills District of Sydney. You’ve chosen this destination and now you have to choose a hotel. 10 years back, you ‘d have probably visited your local travel representative 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 of course on the Internet, by using travel websites.
But how do you sort through the remarkable options on offer? And more importantly, do you truly rely on the pictures and descriptions of the hotels that they have granted themselves with the motivation of getting bookings?
Traveler reviews can be handy, but you need to exercise care. They are frequently prejudiced, in some cases out of date, and might not serve your interests at all. How do you know that the functions that are essential to the customer are essential to you? Then there’s the issue of the customer’s motivation. The more reviews you read, the more you see how they tend to cluster at the extremes of opinion. On one end, you have angry customers with axes to grind; at the other, you have happy visitors who lavish appreciation beyond belief.
You’ll not be shocked to discover that hotels in some cases post their own glowing reviews or that competitor’s line up for the chance to lambaste the competition with bad reviews. It makes sense to consider what is truly important to you when selecting a hotel. You should then choose an online hotel directory that gives current, independent, impartial information that really matters.

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

1. Location: if it matters that your hotel is, for instance, close to the theme park, or convenient for the airport, then location is vital. Any decent directory should offer a location map of the hotel and its environs. There should be distance charts to the airport provided as well as some form of an interactive map.

2. Style: it is essential to choose a hotel that makes you feel comfortable – modern or conventional furnishings, local decor or international, formal or relaxed. The perfect hotel directory should let you know of the alternatives offered.

3. Restaurants, Cafes, and Bars: local color is great 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 they are wise or casual. A good hotel report should tell you this, and especially 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 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 facilities, views from the room and luxury offerings like a Pillow menu or Bath menu, choice of cigarette smoking or non-smoking rooms, etc

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

5. Children’s’ Facilities: more important to the household tourist than business tourist. You should discover 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 business tourist wanting to escape children, this is of course very relevant 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, swimming pool, fitness center, sauna – as well as 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 essential to some.

Finally and most importantly, the quality hotel directory assessment 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 visitor can and it is only then that they are truly in a strong position to write about the hotel.
with the above info, there is no reason why you shouldn’t find the very best hotel in the Hills District of Sydney. All the best!
