In my time trotting around the globe I’ve stayed in a wide variety of hotels and accommodation.
From floating river rafts on the River Kwai to family run havalis in Udaipur, hill tribe wood huts to large scale corporate hotel chains.
On this page I offer my humble opinions on some of the great hotels, B and Bs, guesthouses and homestays that I’ve stayed in over the years.
These are my personal thoughts and I take no responsibility if you don’t think they’re as great as I do!!
You can read more about my hotel recommendations and reviews on TripAdvisor here.
