Welcome to CC Backpack

So you’re going to the Hills District of Sydney. You’ve selected this destination and now you need to select a hotel. 10 years ago, you ‘d have most likely visited your local travel representative and relied on the face-to-face advice you were offered by the so-called ‘experts’. The 21st Century way to select and book your hotel is obviously on the Internet, by using travel websites.
But how do you sift through the fantastic choices on offer? And more significantly, do you actually trust the photos and descriptions of the hotels that they have awarded themselves with the inspiration of getting reservations?
Traveler reviews can be useful, but you need to exercise care. They are frequently biased, sometimes out of date, and may not serve your interests at all. How do you know that the features that are very important to the reviewer are very important to you? Then there’s the problem of the reviewer’s inspiration. The more reviews you check out, the more you notice how they tend to cluster at the extremes of opinion. On one end, you have angry reviewers with axes to grind; at the other, you have pleased guests who lavish appreciation beyond belief.
You’ll not be surprised to discover that hotels sometimes publish their own radiant reviews or that rival’s line up for the chance to lambaste the competition with bad reviews. It makes good sense to consider what is actually important to you when picking a hotel. You should then select an online hotel directory that provides up-to-date, independent, impartial info that really matters.

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

1. Location: if it matters that your hotel is, for instance, near to the amusement 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 offered in addition to some kind of an interactive map.

2. Style: it is necessary to select a hotel that makes you feel comfy – modern or traditional furnishings, local decoration or international, formal or relaxed. The perfect hotel directory should let you know of the choices available.

3. Restaurants, Cafes, and Bars: local color is fantastic 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 informal. A great hotel report should tell you this, and especially about breakfast facilities.

4. Bedroom Facilities: you should constantly thoroughly 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 luxury offerings like a Pillow menu or Bath menu, choice of smoking or non-smoking rooms, etc

. These things actually do matter and any decent hotel directory should offer you this sort of advice on bed rooms – not just the variety of rooms which is the typical alternative!

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

6. Leisure Facilities: the site should offer a detailed analysis of leisure services within the hotel – spa, swimming pool, fitness center, sauna – in addition to details of any other facilities nearby 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 once again this does not apply to every visitor, it is absolutely vital to some.

Lastly 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 guest can and it is only then that they are actually 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. Best of luck!
