Top Europe Hotel Reviews

The Grand at Trafalgar Square

10/10 Excellent

"."

Anantara Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky Amsterdam

8/10 Good

"Wonderful stay, very nice, polite and helpful staff which is quite out of the ordinary for the Netherlands where service is generally and mostly inexistent. To illustrate this, I reported a leak problem with my shower a few hours after checking in. The concierge reported it promptly but maintenance chose to ignore it and it was not fixed until the last evening of my 3-day stay and my reporting the problem 4 times… This kind of situation should never happen in a hotel of this level. Other than that I loved my stay at the Krasnapolsky"

Fraser Suites Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"A perfect location! Located just on the corner of the Royal Mike right by St.Giles Cathedral (a great landmark when you’re not sure where you’re at). Walkable to everything including Grassmarket, New Town, St.James shopping quarter & more. Hotel staff is superb! Rooms are very nice, totally updated, air conditioned too! A big bonus, free washer & dryer for guests, soap included!! Bathrooms are quite nice, tub & shower, big fluffy towels. This is my 3rd time staying at Fraser Suites. I’ll never stay anywhere else in Edinburgh! Be sure to make a reservation to eat at Vittoria’s on the South Bridge, just a short walk, and food & drinks are fantastic!! You won’t be disappointed!"

Leonardo Royal London St Paul’s

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel! It was very clean and spacious in our room. The staff were helpful and kind. The area felt safe and we could take a bus or train to all the sights easily. The only thing we found difficult was the shower because the doors didn’t always close all the way and there was a lot of water on the floor. However I would still stay there again!"

Radisson Collection Hotel, Berlin

8/10 Good

"Second time staying here since we loved it first time. We arrived 2hrs after check in start (5pm) and room was not ready. Received a free round of drinks at bar. Got a room but it was not clean and they quickly found a new one. Said it was an upgrade but really same room better view. We did receive a $50 bar/restaurant voucher but would rather have used it for parking. Breakfast was good, warm pool, great location. We would return again."
