Rated Hotels on Enjoy Food & Travel 2009

  1. Eden Andalou Spa & Resort, Marrakech: BBBBB- (4,68 points)

  3. Radisson Blu Hotel Scandinavia, Gøteborg: BBBB+ (4,30 points)
    Still a great hotel in downtown Göteborg. Service in the bar has room for improvement, and I found the beds too hard for my taste. Dust in the room, minor needs maintenance and uncleaned windows led to a lower rating as well.

  4. Clarion Hotel Tyholmen: BBBB (3,60 points)
    Prime location in the old part of Arendal and just by the water. We had decent sized room with a view over the Arendal city fjord. Few inhouse facilities offered to paying guests. Clarion Tyholmen Hotel is overpriced compared to what is delivered.

  2. Best deal on hotels in Marrakech
    We (i.e. me and two friends) have serious plans to go to Marrakech this winter. This will be my second visit to this beautiful city. I have already started my research on where to stay. Our brief is - top standard, good location, and a (heated) swimming pool at lowest possible price. Unless we choose to revisit the Eden Andalou Spa & Resort, that is!

  12. Quality Hotel Tønsberg, Norway
    Three years ago I stayed overnight at Quality Hotel Tønsberg. At that point this boat-shaped hotel was brand new. Quality Hotel Tønsberg enjoys an excellent location in downtown Tønsberg with a view of the harbour and within walking distance to the city's restaurants, sights, and shopping area.

  13. Riad Moulay Siad, Marrakech
    If traveling to Marrakech it is absolutely worth considering to stay in a Riad. These smaller hotels located in the Medina, the old part of the city, has a particular magic. Behind often old, decaying facades you will find beautiful secluded courtyard with rooms on each side.

  16. The Albergo Chiusarelli Hotel, Siena
    Ten years ago I had my first, and until now only trip to Italy. We started in the Cinque Terre area, then we traveled on to Florence and Siena in Tuscany, and ended up in Bergamo by the Dolomite mountains. After staying in a very spartan room in a 500 year old Florentine Palazzo, we stayed four nights in the cool elegance provided by Albergo Chiusarelli Hotel in Siena.
