Welcome to CC Backpack

So you’re going to the Hills District of Sydney. You’ve selected this destination and now you need to choose a hotel. Ten years back, you ‘d have most likely visited your local travel agent and relied on the face-to-face recommendations you were given by the so-called ‘experts’. The 21st Century way to select and book your hotel is obviously on the Internet, by using travel sites.
But how do you sift through the fantastic options on offer? And more notably, do you actually rely on the photos and descriptions of the hotels that they have awarded themselves with the motivation of getting reservations?
Traveler reviews can be handy, 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 They are frequently biased, sometimes out of date, and may not serve your interests at all.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 functions that are necessary to the reviewer are necessary to you? Then there’s the problem of the reviewer’s motivation. The more reviews you check out, the more you see how they tend to cluster at the extremes of opinion. On one end, you have upset customers with axes to grind; at the other, you have delighted visitors who lavish praise beyond belief.
You’ll not be shocked to find out that hotels sometimes post their own glowing reviews or that competitor’s line up for the chance to lambaste the competitors with bad reviews. It makes sense to consider what is actually essential to you when selecting a hotel. You should then choose an online hotel directory that provides up-to-date, independent, unbiased information that truly matters.

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

1. Location: if it matters that your hotel is, for example, close to the amusement park, or convenient for the airport, then location is paramount. Any good 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 choose a hotel that makes you feel comfortable – contemporary or traditional furnishings, local decoration or international, formal or relaxed. The ideal hotel directory should let you know of the options available.

3. Restaurants, Coffee Shops, 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 informal. An excellent hotel report should tell you this, and especially about breakfast facilities.

4. Bedroom Facilities: you should always carefully consider the kind of facilities you need from your bedroom and find a hotel that has those you consider essential. 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 spaces, and so on

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

5. Children’s’ Facilities: more crucial to the family traveler than business traveler. You should find out just how child-friendly the hotel is from the directory and make your decision from there. One thing worth searching for is whether the hotel offers a babysitter service. For business traveler wishing to escape children, this is obviously really pertinent too – possibly a hotel that is not child-friendly would be something more appropriate!

6. Leisure Facilities: the site should offer a comprehensive analysis of leisure services within the hotel – spa, swimming pool, gym, sauna – in addition to details of any other facilities close by such as golf courses.

7. Special Needs: the hotel directory site should recommend the visitor of each hotel’s special needs services and accessibility policy. Whilst again this does not apply to every visitor, it is definitely vital to some.

Lastly and most importantly, the quality hotel directory assessment team should have gone to the hotel in question regularly, met the personnel, 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 actually in a strong position to write about the hotel.
with the above details, there is no reason why you should not find the best hotel in the Hills District of Sydney. Good luck!
