Hotels in Sydney, Australia

I read that the Australian Dollar is pretty strong against the pound at the moment so I thought I would have a look at Sydney hotels to see what sort of prizes we are looking at for November 2009.

So 2 guests, 1 room on 19th November for 2 nights (a weekend). Staying in a four star hotel it seems like we can get the Marque hotel for £55 per room per night and that's the cheapest four star.

Comparing London for the same weekend, the best deal in a four star seems to be about the same price (ignoring stuff like Croydon and Brent Cross). A Hyde Park hotel "Hyde Park Suites" costs £60 per room per night.

Verdict - Sydney is still cheaper than London (the hotel looks nicer too).

Still time to catch a late deal to Greece

Aghios Nikolais Crete


September is, in my experience a wonderful time to visit Greece.

Why ?
It's not too busy - the school holidays are over for much of Europe so this is a time when couples come to the fore. When it's less hectic, waiters have more time, beaches are less crowded and everything is just that bit more relaxing.

The sea has been warmed all summer so swimming in those turquoise waters is all the more enjoyable.

It's not too hot. Greece can get crazy hot in July and August but by September you will typically experience very pleasurable weather. By October there is a risk of rain but that said October can be very nice too.

Where ?

Rhodes - A personal favourite of mine. Rhodes has had a hard time in recent years with the press overkill on Faliraki and has much more to offer. One of the most diverse Greek islands with some excellent beaches, hotels from typical Greek to world class luxurious and great Greek food of course. Check this page for Rhodes Late Deals and shop around for the best deal.

Crete - As one of the most southerly Greek islands you get a great chance of some sunshine. Flights from all over the UK and a wide range of choice with regards resorts and hotels. Crete Deals have seven night self catering for under £200pp.

Corfu - Gerald Durrel's favourite. Corfu is a real favourire with Brits and there is a welcoming atmousphere in the resorts. Sidari offers something for everyone and is large enough not to be "dead" by the first week of October as can happen in some smaller resorts at the beginning and end of the tourist season. Corfu flights from UK are available from a wide range of UK airports.

How ?

Charter flights to Greek islands finish by the end of October. After that you will be looking at scheduled flights to Athens and domestic flights or ferries to get around but be aware that many Greek resorts are completely closed until May 2010. Visit Greece - Official homepage for Greek Tourism
