When I travel, a hotel is a place to sleep. I don't expect a resort experience. I have been to 7 of the 10 'worst' cities in the past 2 years and have been satisfied with my hotel in all.
ReplyThis article can not be taken serious. The best hotels in the world are in Dubai, Singapore, Hongkong and Bangkok. But also in cities like New York, London, Paris and Frankfurt you find absolute top quality hotels. My experience from 50 years of traveling the world.
