Last night's hotel: Marriott Huntingdon

Pretty ok if you have a car.  On an industrial esrate so hard to go anywhere if you dont.  Food good, wifi good.  Typical Marriott.

This week's hotel: Hotel Kraka, Unna, Germany

Little German town withsome old walls and god restaurants.  Typucal German business hotel.  Towels not luxurious, bath/shower, good breakfast, connected to bar. Wifi good apart from my room where it was not existent.  So it goes.  Happy to return.  75 € per night b&b

Today's hotel: Jurys Inn, Birmingham

Reliably good.

Last weeks hotel: Travelodge Royal Scot, Kings Cross Road, London

Well this is not where Imthought.  It is not one of the two opposite KiNgs Cross station but 5 or more minutes walk away.  It has clearly seen better days, and apparently a £12m upgrade is due this year.  I stayed two nights which cost £139 and £74 respectively, without breakfast (thought they threw one in when my room key did not work twice.

At the lower rice it is reasonabke - at the higher I would have been disappointed.

Wifi ok if £3/day.  Shower a bit anemic

Area interesting

Last night's hotel: Travelodge Bethnal Green

So, ok.  A Travelodge.  i thought Berhnal Green was going up market.  I didnt see much sign apart from the house prices.  

Its ok. Wifi pay for £3 is ok.  Shower a bit weak.  But quite affordable and only 3 mins from tube station.  Would stay again

The other night's hotel: Premier Inn, Borough Market, London

Very pleased with this place.  Not cheap at £190, but I'm not paying.  Its a pretty much standard Premier Inn, but the location is brilliant - just off the Thames.  The breakfast room (in neighbouring pub) looks t onto the Thames and St Pauls.  The Glove is three minutes away.  And the Golden Hynde.  Really interesting area too, which is gentrifying but still looks like yer actual London.

Shower good apart from being an on the wall dispenser.  Wifi ok

Last night's hotel: Park Inn by Radisson, Telford

Very good and very reasonable.  Good shower (lovely bathroom), comfy, good wifimthat it was easy to log on to.  Breakfast   Fine but a bit dry.

Tonight's hotel: IBIS Blackfriars, London

Its ok.  Wifi good.  Bathroom is one of those pod things which I'm not fond of.  Very quiet given the location.  Bar restaurant rather funky, if narrow

It's ok.

Last night's hotel: Hampton by Hilton, Birmingham

No food in evening, but next to a Domino pizza.  Breakfast rather dry, and not in the best part of town.  But good wifi, good plug points and very convenient for the tram.  So, fine

Tonight's hotel: Jury's Inn, Watford

Tonight's hotel; room 614 Novotel, Birmingham

Excellent wifi, cold though, shower not quite enough headroom, breakfast ok to good

Last nights hotel : Pentahotel, Birmngham

Achingly funky, awful wifi.

Golden Jubille Conference Hotel Glasgow

This is a weird one.  For a start it is a hospital.  Yes a hospital.  The hotel is round the back.  Second it doesn't have TVs, it has Macs.  Yes a Mac with freeview.

Only thing to object to is that the bedroom is too dark.  Like many other hotels it just does not have enough ambient light in the room.  Lots of lamps, but that it just a pain.

But very good overall.

Tonight's room

Secret location

Crown plaza Gerrards Cross room 307

As last week

Malmaison Birmingham

Very nice.  Excellent continental breakfast - not worth the extra for a full english.  Good free wifi.  Achingly cool, which means dark.  No car park so add on an extra £20.  Part of the Mailbox along with Harvey Nicks.

Holiday Inn Express, Exeter

Ok.  Tricky to get to though close to motorway.  Puzza ok.  Wifi free but poor.

Last nights hotel: Crowne Plaza Gerrard's Cross

Very comfortable, good free wifi, nice restaurant, gym if I had time to use it, but oddly cold (temperature not atmosphere).  Some free water, kit kat, soft drinks in minibar.  Which is nice.
