Off travelling at the end of the month. Two RTW on OW in Y, seven cities. Basically we spend a day travelling, two nights and a day in the target city, then off to the next one.
23YO daughter and I, so we're looking at twin beds rather than a double. Edinburgh, Washington DC and Rockhampton we've got sorted, leaving Tokyo, London, Paris and New York to find beds. I've had some excellent advice from this forum before, so I'm laying the thing open.
What I'm hunting for are cheapish city hotels reasonably close to transport terminals (Gare du Nord in the case of Paris) and I'm not needing grand luxury and acres of space. Bug-free beds and a bit of security is my goal here. A step up from a hostel bunkroom, in other words.
Somewhere in the region of $US100 per night for a twin room, though I'll go higher for a standout.
I've been looking at various booking sites and while I can generally find hotels at the cheaper range, looking them up on traveller review sites usually explains why they are cheap.
Recommendations, anyone?
