With One Life To Live off the air and prospects for a new life online all but gone, four actors from the ABC soap opera have been snatched up by General Hospital to reprise their roles as part of a new storyline. Kassie DePaiva, Roger Howarth, Michael Easton and Kristen Alderson will head to Port Charles when the network's last soap begins production later this month. The move was announced today by executive producer Frank Valentini, who along with head writer Ron Carlivati are OLTL alums who shifted to the same roles at General Hospital last month. Those pickups came after Prospect Park, which had acquired rights to OLTL and fellow scrapped soap All My Children, decided not to go forward with reviving the series online. "We have a very exciting story planned for the citizens of Port Charles, with Sonny Corinthos at the center of it. I am confident viewers and fans alike will be excited for the arrival of John (Easton), Starr (Alderson), Blair (DePaiva) and Todd (Howarth)," Valentini said. GH will mark its 49th year of broadcasting on April 1.
Four 'One Life To Live' Characters Check Into 'General Hospital'
56 Comments
That's strange; rats usually desert a sinking ship.
I am so excited that General Hospital is picking up the four stars from OLTL. I wish that they would have let the character of Natalie cross over to General Hospital as well. Now that ABC has taken All My Children and OLTL are off the air, I will NOT be watching The Chew or the Revolution. I have watched the two soaps since I was 13 years old. I am furious that ABC would even think about taking our beloved soaps off the air.
i THINK IT IS GREAT THAT GENERAL HOSPTAL IS PICKING UP THESE STARS FROM OLTL.
They should know that reality show are being over done. I enjoyed the fantasy of a Soap Opera. I will not watch a real family fighting among themselves.
Me too I have been watching the soaps since I was a teen, really hope to see them back in the future!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I feel the same, I have watched both show's for ever..for at least 20 yrs. and really hate they removed them.. my girls even watched them since they was babies and well they are not liking them takin it off air.. maybe if many complaines they will put them back on..and I too will not put channel 11on during then hours ever again..durin them hours..and Natalie would so make a perfect role in GH..she has the perfect attitude to fit it..
I wish that Natalie from OLTL was joining General Hospital.
Frank and Ron are smart this might just make GH watchable again. Now bring in Dorian and have Roxy take over Kelly's and we will have a ratings winner.
It may not matter.
ABC is going to shrink their daytime schedule by one hour in September; many ABC affiliates will fill the time given back to them with Katie Couric's syndicated talk-show "Katie".
The only ways "General Hospital" will stay on the air past Labor Day will be:
(1) If either "The Chew" or "The Revolution" gets cancelled, or,
(2) Both "Chew" and "Revolution" get reduced to a half-hour each.
Barring either scenario, "GH"'s final episode will likely air August 31st.
That's an incredibly naive assumption to state that affiliates will be leaping to fill any slot with Katie Couric. Breaking the bank to lure Couric — a … what's another word that is the opposite of "celebrity?" — over to ABC was Brian Frons' biggest boondoggle (next to cancelling two long-running fan favorites, of course). No one wanted to see her in primetime, or on the news, or at CBS … really anywhere.
ABC's only true hope for salvation is to figure out a way to undo this fiasco and attempt to woo back — or at least appease — the legions of daytime fans it's irreversibly pissed off and alienated. Throwing the angry masses a bone by tossing some of the OLTL actors into a life raft to float over to GH is a start, but they'll still have a long way to go.
For the sake of the genre, I just hope no one throws a noose around Valentini and Carlivati's collective balls and that ABC gives them both a fair and honest shot to turn this mess around. If anyone can do it …
Just let it die already. Painful to watch this show gasping for air.
Great to see some elements of OLTL live on. Would love to see Dorian pop up in Port Charles to tangle with Tracey or Monica. Maybe she can buy the Quartermaine mansion from Monica? La Boulaie can use a sister house in Port Charles..
The Revolution won't make it I can tell already. It isnt something viewers want on a daily basis. I'm sure GH will move to 2pm/1pm or some affiliates will keep it at 3pm/2pm.
OLTL won't sign off 'til FRIDAY …. she's got a more life to her without being buried alive by articles announcing her demise a few days early…
I do think that FV & RC are headed in the right direction; Sonny and the mob storylines can now have a worthy foe in would-be titan-tyrant Todd and dark knight McBain…
And maybe (the rapists, etc.) Todd and Luke will be in group therapy together… or otherwise at each other's throats?
i'm mostly excited to see Michael Easton and Kelly Monaco on the same show again.
i love the pairing of Jason and Sam, but I dunno, she had some pretty sizzling chemistry with Easton.
Thank goodness for this, Kristen Alderson has been on this show her entire life and has turned into one of the strongest actresses there. I don't think she'd know what to do with herself without a soap.
If GH is ending this year, as it's been rumored, then they need to end with the current canvas, and some old favs like AMC did. But why bring over 4 characters who mean absolutely nothing to the show. And this show has been revolving around Sonny for years! That's the problem. We don't need more characters to revolve around Sonny. The problem with GH is not the cast, it's the stories. And if some actors get cut because of this, other than the newbies, this will hurt the show more than help it…
If John McBain is going to General Hospital that's great, but it won't be fun without Natalie and their baby as they are back together now and that's why I watched in the first place to see them get back together, they are hot!
I am soooo sad, I can't believe that all the 40 some years soap operas are taken or being taken off of the daytime tv. What is the broadcasters or producers thinking of by taking these soap operas off the air??? I'm sure besides myself,there will be very many unhappy watchers of ABC. They should bring them back!!!!!
Really other than General Hospital I have no reason to watch abc anymore and I think they could have sold AMC and OLTL to SoapNet or something other than the losers at Propect Park that couldn't follow through. I think they just said all that to keep the fans from protesting thinking they would at least be able to watch them online.Oh well when their ratings fall to nothing maybe they will realize that the fans do mean something and be filled with regret and empty pockets.
Yes! And I'm one of those unhappy viewers. 40 years gone… just to bring in shows like the Revolution! Are You kidding me :-/
I will miss one life it has been a releive from a hectic livestyle.Watching other peoples problems makes mine not so bad.
I think ABC-TV is making a big mistake getting rid of all the soaps on their channel. They are going to lose a lot of their viewers. They replaced Oprah with more news, what is this station going to be an all-news station eventually? Then they replace AMC with The Chew and now OLTL with The Revolution. And now thinking about cancelling GH to give Katie Kouric a time-slot. CBS and NBC
are probably going to be happy about these stupid moves. I don't think these new shows are going to bring up their ratings. They should bring them all back! AMC, OLTL and keep GH on the air!
Or did anyone think about bringing them back on the cable network:
Exactly!!! I have watched all ABC soaps since they started! I started watching them with my grandma and mom, now I watch to escape the reality of my life for a couple hours a day! I don't need or want any self-help gurus telling me what or when to eat, what to wear, how much exercise I need or how to parent my children! I DO NOT have a self-esteem issue. For all of those who do….TRY READING A BOOK! Leave our soaps alone. I guarantee "The Chew" and "The Revolution" will not still be airing in 44 years, Probably not in 44 weeks. They sure won't get my viewership. I now watch "The Young and the Restless" and "Bold and Beautiful". Thanks CBS for sticking to the program! I think Roxy running Kelly's would be fabulous. Also, bring Nat and Liam to GH!
I hope General Hospital will not be disappearing in August. I have watched this show with my grandmother when I was young and it has been part of my adult life. ABC needs to realize we don't need another ridiculous talk show or news show, we just want to sit and vedge out for an hour of two at the end of the day.
Very sad times for tv……
i too watched with my grandma and mother, it was sort of a bonding thing for us, we all sat together silently watching but before and after those three hours of soaps we were a family and those are some of the best memories of the two women i admire and no longer have with me
I hate that one life to live ended abc sucks!! Who wants to watch the crappy chew show or revolution they are boring and stupid!! Abc will be banned from my tv unless oltl resumes!!!
I agree. I like to escape for those 3 hours and may not be able to now. I also am thankful they brought some of OLTL's cast over to GH and I also hope they do bring Natalie and Liem over too. I would also like to see Vickie or Jessie during Kate's DID role. I know DID is real. I am also very happy that they do shows on real life diseases Like DID, Depression Cancer and Heart disease.
Please do not take GH off and bring AMC and One Life to Live back. We have too many reality shows on TV now both day and night and I am sick of them. I have gotten to a point where I am ready to get rid of our Cable and just watch movies at least the DVD's and VHS Tapes have movies in their entirety not sections cut out because it seems like everything is a Reality Show almost now and I live enough Reality in my own Life and don't need some more Reality it is ridiculous not all of us like Reality and want to get lost in our Fantasy once in awhile.
Thanks for taking the time to read this if you do.
Rose North
I can say right now that i am VERY upset with ABC for cancelling OLTL and not happy about AMC either and if they think taking GH off air will help then GOOD BYE ABC i will not watch your network AT ALL because as is you took off a bunch of good primetime tv shows too so now theres nothing keeping me watching your network because you are turning it into a boring snoozefest with all these talk shows and news report shows and pretty soon if this keeps up you wont even have a network to run!!!
I agree with this statement I sincerely miss All My Children and will miss One Life To Live. Seriously, what are you guys thinking??
Why the HELL would ABC be so stupid to give that rotten old hag Katie Couric her own show? They claim they have no money to produce soap operas because they're so "expensive" but I read an article that says they're going to be paying that dimwit Katie Couric $40 million dollars for a stupid talk show that no one will even watch. The world is getting dumb and dumber, and everything is gone to hell when stupid people like this are in charge of making decisions. Idiots, please!
I'll been watching these soap's for far to long and I'm sorry to see them go, I wish they didn't take AMC off for the chew and OLTL for the revolution, I hate to watch the chew that show is not somethng i want to watch and the revolution won't start till Monday and I don't beleive I would be watching that one too. So I guess I'll be watching GH on the internate since it comes on at three, I'll be watching other channel's for now. Sorry to see them go. Goodbye ABC.
WE too are very sorry to see our favorite soaps leaving. the afternoons will be very boring now, so we will be leaving ABC too! how many court shows and talk shows and cooking shows can one digest?? we enjoyed being a part of these soap families.
I never thought my husband would watch a soap, but after his retirement? he enjoyed them as much as I did, it was just a quiet time for both of us to en joy being a part of their families, when they were sad? we were sad too, and enjoyed and shared their happiness along the way, we will miss them sooo much, and will not watch Tye Pennington!!! he is tooo much energy for us.
I will not be watching the new shows the chew or the revolution, i am sick to death of self help shows, nobody wants to watch them, we see enough reality shows in the pm, hate seeing them in the am, want my soaps back
I will never watch those stupid shows the chew or the revolution and none of my friends will eather.
I have been watching these soaps for the last 30 years and they have become a part of my life. I cannot believe they are being canceled for more cooking, decorating and self help shows. Really? How many of these shows are we going to get shoved down our throats? Now I'm hearing GH may be canceled as well? I can honestly say that if this happens ABC will no longer be a network watched in my home or the home of my family. I hope these new shows fall flat on their faces!
I have refuse to watch the new programs which have taken over my soap spots. Don't we have enought TALK SHOWS. That is all that is on any more. BORING!! Be smart ABC leave GH on the air. Be Smart!!!
I think it's terrible one life to live was taken off the air, I will never watch the replacement show the revolution.first of all I can't stand Ty what ever the hell his name is.it's a stupid no good dumb idea of a show and I would never watch it if they paid me.bring back one life to live abc stop being so greedy and think of the people who love this soap.after all we are the ones that keep your useless station get the stick out of your ass for once.bring our beloved one life back.greedy pigs
I agree I have watched AMC and OLTL for as long as I can remember. I am 38 and started watching when I was a toddler with my grandma. I love these shows and hate that they took them off OLTL is my favorite wish they would have taken off GH instead. They need to bring OLTL back.

Essence Atkins has a bone to pick with these so-called directors and producers who continue to hire all of these none actors. She says Tyler Perry's experiment with putting Kim Kardashian in Temptation did not work! She says "people want to see Kim and Kanye, they want to see her in a bikini, they want to see her butt! People want to see real actors in movies." Boom! The end!

Everything was delightful, except for figuring out the parking, which was also expensive, as all downtown parking is. Perfect location, lovely staff, extremely comfortable rooms. And to think we almost stayed at the Four Seasons! That we didn't get to stay longer!
Excellent furnishings. Nothing.
Service was impeccable. Facilities were well kept, rooms were beautiful. A bit pricey without a discount, but absolutely amazing.
Rooms. Service. Location.
Outstanding customer service from staff at all access points. I also appreciated that while they do have an award-winning fine dining restaurant, there was also a more cost-effective cafe within the hotel for more simple breakfast and lunch options. The location is a plus; we have stayed at other hotels closer to the water but we wanted to be further in the heart of downtown to be closer to art gallery & shopping; Rosewood Hotel Georgia was perfect. Thank you Kayak for making luxury a little more affordable!
Our room was very comfortable &the hotel location was ideal for getting around Vancouver. Meals in dining room were v expensive, especially breakfast & frankly I've had better hash browns at MacDonalds. We had a comparable breakfast at a similar hotel in Seattle that was 25% cheaper & and of better quality by far. I just hate to be taken advantage of in that way. The box of chocolates I received for staying didn't make up for poor food at an outrageous price - even if this is a luxury hotel.
Comfortable room and quiet floor. Nice to come back to a lovely room after a day of exploring Vancouver.
Friendly professional staff Delightful breakfast in the beautiful Bacchus lounge Spacious room with quality linens and L'Occitaine products Great value Excellent location
Superb location, the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. Elegant setting. The 2 of the restaurant staff could be a little on the snooty side!
The location is excellent. The service was first class. The restaurant 'Bacchus' was also excellent. I would definitely stay there again.
excellent service with large rooms, and a very good location in the middle of the city rooms are bit old, but do have large flat screens TV
The room and the food. The hotel offered a free breakfast, but there was confusion with the on line booking. The offer system should be clarified. With other hotels offering a free breakfast i.e. Opus Hotel, the on line booking for the coupon was much simpler.The Hotel did honour the free breakfast.
A truly great boutique hotel in an excellent downtown location.We usually prefer to dine out at night,but could not resist the lure of the wonderful atmosphere & superb food in house.I suspect all staff are highly trained in delivering excellent customer care & certainly they deliver it.The Wedgewood was a wonderful experience over the four nights we spent there. We would be cranks if we did !
Amazing staff, clean, beautiful room with deck. And the most comfortable beds and bedding.
Everything. From the most helpful and friendly staff, all of them, to the attention of waiters, bartenders, up to the Manager who stopped to chat while having breakfast. The room was large and well furnished. Not Applicable.
Best hotel for service and ambiance in Vancouver nothing
Great bar and restaurant. friendly staff. very comfortable / luxurious rooms. windows are older not well insulated for sound. A bit noisy as it is downtown
Rummet rent och sängarna mycket bekväma. Hotellet är mycket centralt för dem som vill ha nära till shopping eller nattliv. Personalen var inte särskilt trevlig och hotellets centrala läge var delvis negativt då det ligger i ett ganska risigt och väldigt partyinriktat område. Detta gör att det är väldigt högljutt i rummen och enda sättet att sova är med öronpluggar
Läget var utmärket med allt inom promenadavstånd. Frukosten var bra
Perfekt läge, gångavstånd till shopping. Bra område att bo i. Stort rum, rent och snyggt. För att vara en amerikansk frukost så var den bra. frukosten serverades i puben, mycket mysig miljö. Trådlöst internet i rummen samt tillgång till dator i receptionen ingick i priset vilket är en stor fördel. Trevlig och artig personal, god service genomgående. Kan inte säga så mycket negativt, möjligen att man städade rummen mycket sent, vid 1-2 tiden men det är bara en mindre detalj.
Vi tyckte det var jätte fint, rent och snyggt. trevlig personal, och god frukost.
Bra lokaliserat nära till shopping och kontor.
Staff is most friendly. Restaurant choices were poor. The only sensible thing to do was get room service which is more costly. Very few options offered at the restaurant as opposed to room service. Parking even for a hotel guest was too pricey. They didn't clean my room the second day.
The bed was very comfortable and the air conditioning got the room nice and cold. The room was outdated and not as advertised on the website.
I've stayed at the Sheraton before. The location and value are great I was put off when the woman at the front desk ask me to email her my confirmation receipt upon checking in. In addition, there is a night club very close by that was in full swing until 3am. I was in town for an event and needed to get up at 5. Needless to say, I didn't sleep well.
Bed was so comfortable I didn't want to get out of it!
The staff were very kind For the south tower: The Lobby, the entrance and elevators were not four star at all!
Great hotel,location staff etc. stay here and you will have an awesome time! Aloha
It's a great and pleasant stay
The staff was impecable and very attentive. I would stay there again any time without thinking about it No complains
The hotel is centrally placed in the city and an easy walk to most of the major locations. The employees were very helpful. The facilities were clean. The price was very reasonable as well. I would definitely stay here again. Our room in the evening must of had some young kids nearby as music was heard along with laughing and voices through the walls or possibly through the ceiling. That was the only inconvenient part of the stay.
Very friendly staff, very customer oriented. Clean, nice rooms/suites. Great location right downtown. Just a little mold on the grout in the bathroom.
Extremely helpful, friendly and dedicated service. Unfortunately, we were in and out quickly for an early flight, but everyone was terrific in getting us checked in, fed, and out the door to the airport on time.
Staff was so nice, car to take us to dinner, beds very comfortable, big bathrooms, luxurious robes.
We arrived early in the morning from a cruise ship. The staff was so welcoming. We knew at 9am a room would not be available...so we went off to explore Vancouver. 30 minutes later we had a cell phone call that our beautiful room was available. I don't want to rant...on and on...so all I will say as a previous owner of a meeting planning company that needed to book high end hotels for my VIPS...this is a very classy and comfortable property at a wonderful rate. WE WILL STAY HERE OUR NEXT VISIT TO VANCOUVER. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
The room huge, staff caring, hotel conveniently located in downtown, and awesome. Busy street during day because of near by building construction but not really an issue. Still quiet in room!
n'espresso maker in room. big tub. fireplace in room. saltwater pool and hot tub open year round. awesome concierge. housekeeping noticed I'd bought a bottle of scotch and proactively left me proper highball glasses for it! not really any view
The staff was very professional and friendly. Very classy overall feel to the style of the hotel. Their was nothing I disliked about our stay. Would definately stay here again.
I was in Vancouver for one night for an early AM meeting. I had a long day of work and travel before checking in and the staff made me feel immediately welcome. My room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. I regret not having more than a few hours to take advantage of this property. No cons to report
Everything was amazing, I can't wait to go back! Nothing. Everything was great
Great location. Beautiful room including living area and outdoor patio (had a fifth floor corner room with two walls of window). Incredibly efficient and friendly staff. Surprising inexpensive. There was construction going on across the street. No fault of the hotel but did make for a mixed view. Shows that the city is bustling and the concierge immediate apologized to each new guest instead of making excuses for it.
We booked a suite with a separate living area and bedroom. The living area included a wet bar with microwave and dishware which we were not expecting. It was a nice surprise, so we got takeout Chinese and brought it back to the room for dinner and could eat it on real plates and with real silverware after reheating it in the microwave. The bed was super comfy, the staff very nice. Would certainly return there if coming back to Vancouver Only two elevators, one was being repaired the morning of our departure so there was a long wait to get down.
Comfort, cleanliness, fantastic night skyline views through floor-to-celing windows (we stayed on 27th floor), professional hotel staff, convenience of having a small kitchenette, excellent downtown location. Highly recommended!
Room was clean and the staff were friendly. Pool and pool deck were very small. Fitness center was adequate but nothing special.
Location Near Orpheam theatre!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Westin Grand. The executive deluxe suite was smaller than we expected, but it was nice. Chad and Nicola and Jessie were extremely helpful and friendly in the restaurant at breakfast. (We had coupons for breakfast, which was wonderful.) We really enjoyed eating a fancy breakfast, followed by cheap and tasty eats later in the day. (For example, Mongolian barbecue and Egyptian and Asian fast food are all within an easy walk of the hotel.) Overall, the hotel was great, but a little expensive. Even though we had internet and free breakfast, the price of the executive deluxe suite was high, given its size (relatively small).
Hotel had good parking. Convenient. Hotel room was not ready til very late post check-in. Suite was much smaller than depicted on the internet and in discussion with them. Room service at the pool-side was horrible.
The pool, hot tub and fitness area were fantastic. View from the room and location were also great. Checked into a dirty room, with stains and hair in the sheets. Had to pay for Wifi, for $400 a night
Location, accommodation & staff
Everything was near and the people was very.
very pleasant suite with good facilities - eg large televisions in sitting room and bedroom, well designed 'kitchenette' for preparing drinks and snacks, extremely comfortable bed with masses of goosedown pillows, outdoor pool and hot tub with steamroom and excellant showers
Helpful Concierge team with reliable restaurant recommendations Would have liked more self catering facilities
We were first time visitors to Vancouver & Victoria, staying seven days. We wanted a hotel room suite, on Robson St., w/a kitchenette & a view. Westin Hotels are quality hotels, in the states, and at the time of our visit the Westin Grand Vancouver/Booking.com had a fantastic special rate, for a corner suite. We were very pleased w/the suite, the hotel, the staff & the services. Everything seemed just fine. One suggestion: Suites/rooms w/refrigerators: The refrigerators need to be a little bigger, to accomodate items guests might need to refrigerate, during their stay.
friendly staff bathroom light switch out in the hall far from bathroom. bathroom door will not stay open. noisey. room half empty. plastic floors.
Room design, cleanliness, attentive staff water pressure for showers, expensive in-hotel breakfast
Great central location and beautiful amenities. Nice perk having nespresso machines in the rooms.
We stay at Hotel Blu every time we go out to Vancouver! Our favourite hotel! The rooms are so nice. We definitely recommend the loft room. So nice and modern. Always a blast!
Very little...it was a dry roof over our heads for one evening is about all I can say. I did not like how noisy it was. We were kept up until way past 4am due to people yelling on the street below...please invest in soundproof windows!!! When I told the front staff how upset I was, they asked me what I expected?? Very poor customer service. We will never stay at this hotel ever again...
Staff were friendly and helpful, room was clean and well maintained. I enjoyed my stay, could of done without the snowfall earlier in the day!
Ramada in Seattle much better value and comfort.
Billing should be given during the night prior to departure. There is no need to spend time in the early morning waiting to be done. Staff are nice people.
Great family room set-up if travelling with kids.
The location was perfect with restaurants, shopping, and clubs just down the street. The rooms were huge and very clean. Only complaint is the noise from the construction happening behind the hotel but there are earplugs provided in every room, so this was minor.
It was convenient and met our requirements such as having a microwave. It was very noisy because of the proximity of nightclubs.
I liked that the parking was underground in a secure environment. Guard and guard dog signs were posted at the entrance. I enjoyed my stay and the view of the city from my balcony was awesome. There was a lot of construction going on in front of the hotel and they started really early. Of course this is of no fault of the hotel.
I like how easy it was to register and stay. Paying for parking as an additional cost is always a little back handed. It might be nice if they included parking as an option when making a reservation.
good value for money,location
Location was good and staff was most helpful for our one night stay
I liked having a space that had a separate bedroom, and a balcony. Housekeeping walked in without knocking, when my husband was on the toilet. We had the "do not disturb" sign out. Because of my health issues, I sleep in the day often. At 7am the next morning, they knocked and tried to get in. I flipped over the latch to stop them from entering. Next day, they tried to enter again before 8am.
In late Wed, out early Fri. So admittedly, it was very brief. I suspect I would have enjoyed the stay higher on a better floor. I was on 2, and they also have meeting rooms. So there was an extra level of crowds (more a large group) and their noise, to go along with my stay. Would only really have been an issue if I had wanted to sleep in. Which I didn't. Next time: a higher room for sure. Location was great! Staff was super friendly and helpful. I'll give it another shot for sure. Also, I didn't get a chance to check out their bar. So that may have been a big plus as well, and might have elevated the Facilities rating from OK to Good. : )
compact&fuctional layout--great staff/service--central location
The move from a noisy room! We asked for a move to a quieter room at 11pm as we were above a nightclub... this was after requesting a quite room upon booking!
over all everything Not as soundproof as one would expect. We could hear the fellow on the phone next door.
Your staff were extremely pleasant, our room was very comfortable you had thought of everything to make our stay very enjoyable. I liked the fact we even had an umbrella for our rainy walks. I liked everything about the hotel and couldn't improve on anything.
the welcome, the very friendly, helpful staff, the ambiance in the bar, the great bathroom, the equipments in the room, (CD player with CDs, I pod player....) all these things makes a stay so much easier, as we can feel a little "at home"! no slippers in the room, a little dusty, specially on the dark wood furnitures,
boutique hotel with cool feel to it. Helpful staff and located near good nightlife right in Yaletown
Perfectly located next to shops, bars and restaurants. Right across from a skytrain station so very easy to get around. Cute modern decor.
The staff was really friendly, helpful and accommodating
Very convenient location. Yaletown is a fabulous neighborhood.
Every aspect of the hospitality is of high level, to the minimum detail.This creates since the beginnig a pleasant sensation.
Fun, hip hotel!
Very quiet, incredible location for nightlife and dining, extremely friendly and helpful staff. I highly recommend the burrard and will be staying here again soon.
Simple. Perfect location.
The room was clean and cute the whole hotel was perfectly located for everything we wanted to do during our stay. Each day we were woken up by extremely loud drilling(?) vacuuming (?) some very loud noise multiple times during each morning of our stay.
Went to vancouver to take in a cannucks game. Great location enjoyed use of bikes. Bikrd around town and to the stadium/arena. Great food and bars nearby. Brief but we'll planned power outage related to upgrading to a system issue was performed midday and had little affect on my stay
The advertising, decor, and overall theme of the hotel has a purposely kitschy vibe -- it was playful and charming. The staff was friendly, the room was clean, the free wifi was quick and responsive, and the location was very central to all of the sights around town that I had in my plans. The bed was comfortable, and the furnishings & amenities certainly met my needs. There isn't a lot to criticize. The room was a tad small, but as a lone traveler, this didn't bother me at all. The location is next to a hospital, but aside from occasional flashing ambulance lights, there wasn't really any more noise than I'd imagine one would hear being adjacent to any street in the city.
Our room was very clean and comfortable. The location was great.
Room bathrooms where a little tight.
I liked nothing Definitely not worth the money the heater/fan box thing the buttons didn't work it was just cold air coming out I couldn't change it and the only way to turn it off why my unplugging it witch was dangerous for my baby it was 15.99+tax to rent a movie and there channel's were all messed up and the alarm clock was wrong ibwould j her stay there again and pay what they charge for the room
Hot tub not so hot
Beds were comfortable. Great for an over night stay. Couple of stains on my pillow case (looked like mascara maybe). Elevators from the parkade were down and their was a lot of construction making it difficult to navigate from the parkade with luggage.
swimming pool slightly heated, good jets in the warm spa; restaurants convenient; wake-up call & exit taxi timely tiny room w thin walls so you could hear people in next room, hall, elevator; some staff minimally trained; no newspapers; office center computers expensive; ice machine didn't work on our floor or 3 floors lower, had to go 4 floors for ice; stairways and hallways to gym & pool a multistory maze;
Great location. Need to use your room key to operate the elevators.
Staff were nice, however the room we ended up in, after specifying the need for a quiet room, was too loud to sleep in, even with earplugs. We will never go back there. Pay a bit more for a better hotel! Had a terrible sleep, thump thump thump all night from the Disco. Yes ALL night, it lasted until 8AM in the morning. Room 603. Thought we were high enough, we were not. Even with earplugs... thump thump thump. We will never go back there, and it's taken 2 days to recover from lack of sleep. Elevator was terrible, had to use stairs. Pop machine served water and drinks that were WARMER than room temperature. yuk
Some helpful staff, nice beds Inadequate security, car broken into immediately in hotel garage.
Great location, easy check-in and check-out. VERY noisy at night - noisy guests, lots of screaming and whoo-ing from club directly across the street.
Location is great. Walkable distance to Gastown (10-15 mins), Chinatown (5-10 mins), Pacific Center shopping areas (10-15 mins), and BC Place stadium was down the block. Staff were friendly and there's a lounge on the premise. Couldn't check in until 4PM due to the hotel being fully booked the night before so they need extra time to clean on the day of before my family can check into our rooms. But in return we did getbeautiful view from our room.
We were very close to the Canada line for transport from YVR. Rogers Arena a close walk. This location exceeded our expectations. The elevators could use a good cleaning.
Tyst och lugnt, bra läge. Lika bra me billigare än lyxhotellen. Frukosten rätt trist och lokalen (irländsk pub på kvällen) inte så fräsch som man skulle önska sig
Trevlig personal. Vi fick ett rum med fruktansvärt oljud från tvättmaskiner som arbetade nattetid. Hörde ljudet när vi chekade in men trodde det slutade nattetid vilket det tyvärr inte gjorde. Vi klagade på morgonen och personalen drog av parkeringsavgiften som kompensation. Hotellet ligger i ett område som inte känns så bra med kringströvande människor. Mvh Conny
Hotellet låg bra. Det var rent och snyggt. Kaffe på rummet. Jag saknade ett kylskåp.
Room size. The lazy when we were checking in. She wasn't helpful at all.
Very helpful front desk staff, easy central location, good breakfasts
Room was well equiped. Very noisy hotel. Also poor breakfast..
Location, size of room/apartment, efficiency and assistnce given by staff, flexibility to respond to specific requests.
The peace and quiet The scramble at the buffet breakfast
Bright spacious accommodation, friendly staff Minor stuff - fridge very noisy, & extractor in bathroom started up in night & wouldn't shut down - but this seemed to be a ' one-off '
Room layout and space Poor shower set-up--shower curtain was a nuisance and let water get all over floor, bath ventilation barely effective
Close to sporting events and concerts, nice place to stay, shopping and eating is close! Skytrain event for adults is great The streets of Vancouver, walk to far before it cleans up, not a kids scene
The suite was fantastic for a family of four. Used the facilities to save money by eating in rather than eating out. Very handy having two bathrooms. The breakfast could have been put out better rather than everything being in packets and cling film. The pool area was out of order due to refurbishment.
Great location! Complimentary breakfast is amazing. The kitchen looks a little outdated but it's such a great space for the price!
The location was good the staff were helpful and polite the room size was ideal for our purpose and any problems were soon resolved. Unfortunately during our stay we were unable to use the pool and exercise facilities advertised when we booked due to construction work being undertaken and this was a big disappointment to us as we were hoping to have a swim and relax after a busy day in the city.We felt that maybe we should have received a reduced rate for our stay as you did not provide a service you had advertised.
I loved the location and the size of the suites. The complimentary breakfast is nice, but contains too many carbs for my liking. They don't offer anything besides pastries and bagels in the morning and no protein.
Comfortable bed, easy access to everything in downtown,very near the waterfront where the cruise ships dock. .
Trendy decor simple comfy rooms Slow elevator
Great location to catch the hockey game at Rogers Area.
It it centrally located to the Granville strip so it's close for all the nightlife The elevator was broken, the walls are paper thin you can hear everything and because the building is old the floor creaks BADLY! The people above us kept us up all night and day walking around right above our bed. Their floor/our ceiling was a night mare! I had to call the front desk twice to complain and try to get them to stop pacing yet nothing happened. It's a cute neiche hotel but I wouldn't go back.
Good location. If you stay on the second floor just be prepared for really loud music coming from the restaurant/bar from downstairs until about 1:00 am.
Location is good. Bed was comfortable. Staff was good. I Would have given it a better rating except for: The room smelled like a 3 day old burnt cigarette. Smoking is not allowed now due to Canadian laws, but man can you tell there used to be 20 cigs a day smoked in my room. I'm an ex smoker of about 2 years, so my nose might be a little more sensitive then others. But my friends who ere staying on the floor above me said the same thing.
Great cocktails at the wine bar, staff was very helpful, location was great
Location Beds are uncomfortable
Love the history of the hotel, great staff and a great location. It may be an old hotel with some cool history, but it could still do with some cleaner finishes like some new carpet and a better paint job.
Close to many restaurants and shopping. A good value overall but only if you plan to be out and about. Cramped and noisy. Thankfully hotel staff did move us to a higher floor after the first night.
Wasn't in the room for very long...but overall it was fine. Not flashy...nothing stood out...but no complaints either. Good location. Bed was comfortable enough. Noise was not an issue. Felt safe and secure. Did not try any of the dining options location in the building...but they looked good from the outside. Value for what we paid was acceptable. Would recommend if you needed a place to stay for one night if you were attending a concert or event. Things that could be improved: Showerhead - unless you are 5 ft 2 inches....it was way to low in our room...should be placed higher. Another electrical outlet would have been nice
Location was good Hotel was generally clean Booked the "Double deluxe queen" only to find that there was only one bed and the "room type" was double. To me that is deceptive advertising and the manager made me pay an upgrade fee to get the room I thought I had booked. The elevator broke for two days while we were there The TV in our room didn't work I will not be returning and would recommend others not stay here.

Bed was very comfortable and room and bathroom was very clean Room was too hot
Staff friendly, Room clean and reasonably comfortable
Nice and quit, great breakfast.
Excellent Table Table Restaurant next door, ease of getting into London, reception staff very helpful, clean room.
The location was very good whilst all the hotels near Excel were fully booked it's also in a very good location for shopping. Very good breakfast.
Very good hotel staff friendly good location Some traffic noise
The lady, and later the man on reception were very friendly and helpful. We were very happy with our room and the breakfast at the restaurant next door. Although we had sat nav. and keyed in the post code, we ended up quite a way off the Premier Inn. We had to ring and the receptionist had to tell us how to get there (we were about 10 mins away)so more detailed directions would be helpful
Having to go to another building for dining facilities - no interconnecting covered walkway between accommodation and restaurant
The receptionist was excellent. He sourced food late at night. Clearly designed for car users. A few extra footpaths wouldn't go amiss.
Clean spacious hotel. Comfy room, nice bathrom and good size bath towels! Love the art work everywhere. Hairdrier a bit hard to use and a bit weak but worked .
We were upgraded to a beautiful sea-view room on the fifth floor. The room was spacious, clean and the air conditioning ensured a comfortable sleep No bad points
the hotel staff, the location and the food were abolutely fantastic.you cannot get any better than dat. well done everything was absolutely perfect for me
Central situation! Your clerical provisions need improvment! The opening line of this enquiry has opened with 'Dear Ferris' Perhaps a prefix of 'Mr.' would have been wise!! Soft drinks were ridiculously expensive!
Extremely clean room, lovely flat screen on well, very comfy bed. This hotel has a lovely residents bar and is right at the end of the high street.You could not get a better location. Nothing we got to check in v. early, got our room slightly upgraded, staff were lovely, tea & coffee in our room - no negatives.
Good location, nice room, nice bar, 12pm checkout £20 premium for sea view is a bit high. No hotel car park
Good Security with swipe cards. Very clean and well appointed rooms. Hotel very tidy all round and in good location. N/A
Good size room, not too hot The desk clerk on my arrival was slow and unfriendly (All the rest o fteh staff were lovely)
We like the location of the hotel, on both our stays we had sea view rooms and our next stay will also be in a sea view room to make the most of the location. We think that Southend had been improved by the redevelopment of the Hotel. Our first stay was one night and the second two nights, our only complaint is the cost of parking and leaving our car in the car park opposite. The first stay cost us approximately £15.00 and the second £24.00. I completely understand that the car park is not the hotels juresdiction but the discount the hotel gets for its guests is a paltry one.
Staff very friendly and helpful. Excellent food and very good choice. General cleanliness throughout. Our only complaint was that whereas we were booked in for 5 nights,Monday to Saturday - we were very disturbed to have our bill pushed under the door early on Friday morning which informed us that we were expected to check out that day. The young lady on the Reception Desk was extremely helpful and did get it sorted out, but we feel that it was something that should not have occurred.
Lovely hotel and great food My room was a shoebox, but I guess you get what you pay for. Also, I was told at reception that breakfast was not served until 8.30 on weekends. I needed to leave for my work by 8.30. I discovered that breakfast started at 8.00 when I went a few minute early to see if I could grab something. I trust this will be corrected as I passed the info onto the hotel.
Great location, right on the seafront, lovely views from the restaurant area out across the bay. Comfortable, modern, clean, friendly, good parking facilities. Breakfast was first class. Bathroom was very cold even with the towel radiator on. I stayed in one of the junior suites on the top floor, with no central heating. Heating was via the air conditioning unit, central heating would have been much preferable.
It is a very well run hotel with friendly helpfull staff and when I did have a slight problem in the early hours it was resolved without any fuss. keep up the good work.
Lovely atmosphere in restaurant & terrace Room very hot. No hot water for shower/wash. Light over mirror in bathroom flashing on & off all night.
The position is excellent. It was a short walk from Thorpe Bay station. Every one was very friendly. The sun shone! The hotel is quite shabby in places. Could do with a lift
Enjoyed every moment we were there.
Staff were extremely helpful and made the stay... None
The staff was very welcoming. The hotel is very clean and the food was excellent.Very pleased with everything.
pleasent and friendly staff good food
room was warm, clean, quiet. Bathroom excellant, even had a proper hairdryer. Staff helpfeul, efficient and smart. Could have been more tea bags and milk in hospitality tray, but on mentioning at reception were told they would have been happy to deliver more. As it was past one am didn't think it worth it.
Nice pleasant clean hotel. Very close to Southend airport! No problems with noise. Car park fairly cramped and you might end up a fair walk away from the hotel. Staff were very friendly. The room was fairly small but as I expected. I'd be very upset if I'd paid the full room rate! always look around for a discounted price!
Proximity to airport - London Southend. NA
Nice hotel, good facilities No improvement on breakfast, often cold or without hot drinks
Very nice girl staff
location next to sports center where my daughter was competing breakfat cold
The restaurant The bathroom was pathetic, thetoilet didn't flush we had to use the waste bin. After reporting it it only worked once after the repair.A tile fell of the side of the sink unit & parts of the formica was missing.
I have stayed there before and the staff are always welcoming. When I asked to be moved to a quieter room away from traffic, this was dealt with quickly and without fuss.
convenient to location shower could have been better
noisey guest
Staff were helpful and friendly The rooms lacked maintenance, with some basic faults not fixed. e.g Shower head loose and needing holding to use.
Good value for money. Food (Breakfast) was lovely. Decor was dated, but kept very clean.
Good value hotel. Decent breakfast and good evening meals. Bargain prices and a good choice overall. Would happily stay there again.
the room service was amazing, food presented better tuen in restaurant massages not very good as just seemed to be rubing in the oils! long service wait in restaurant
Lovely hotel radiator in room did not work
Good service & excellent breakfast Food was a bit strange in the evening - (cucumber jelly??)
Dining was good and we were well served by the staff who were very attentive. Breakfast was very good also The hotel was cold and my room was very cold being on the top floor. `it was near the lifts which was helpful.
The whole experience - the room was very comfortable; the staff were really helpful and friendly; the breakfast was excellent. We also had the Sunday lunch carvery which was really good, and excellent value. My parents complained that they were disturbed by loud music from a wedding party, but since this finished at 11pm they were able to get to sleep reasonably early.
Staff were well trained and keen to oblige. They willingly moved me to another room when I mentioned to them that the corridor outside the non smoking room room smelled strongly of smoke. This was meant to be a non smiking hotel. Breakasts were good. Parking was plentiful. Corridors occasionally smelled of smoke although this was a non smoking hotel. More reinforcement needed to ensure no-one smokes in the hotel at all.
Sheets and blankets! Duvets would be much more comfortable
Staff were excellent food good and happy to prepare food not on menu All room sground floor, impossible to switch heater off not possible to leave room open all night
The food was excellent and the staff very friendly and polite. The picture quality on the television was appalling on virtually all channels, otherwise my stay was very pleasant and most enjoyable.
The bedrooms were comfortable and the decor had an interesting nautical theme. Don't be put off by the look of the exterior; it's much nicer inside. The lighting in the bedroom was very dim and the room was cold. Breakfast service was slow on the Sunday morning.
location , location , location
friendly staff, good food at reasonable prices, real ales. rooms were very hot, so, some better form of air conditioning would be good, secure parking as we were on motorbikes.
Location Could not get a drink 10.15pm 30th Dec? (Towels up)? No food New Years day (Breakfast) although guests were staying at the Hotel! No-one told. Limited food bar area. Very noisy rooms. Pets allowed to stay in rooms although told Pets not allowed. Carpets very dirty. Guests rooms wall very thin. Could hear everything through walls? Next doors toilet backed onto our Bedhead? The lady may as well have been in the same room, very embarressing. Hotel very tired and needs a total revamp. Given its location (on marina) Sheperd & Neame needs to splash the cash!! and soon.
Friendly, helpful staff. Offered smoking room but now have none.
It was very close to local amenities and staff and hotel were very good As it was New Year Weekend both fish dishes on menu were not available on both nights we dined there. As a non meat eater this left me with limited choice
Overall stay was very good and all the staff were very helpful and friendly. We had no blind up in the bathroom and mentioned it to one of the staff in the bar in the evening and it was dealt with the following day. Very good location for visiting family in Chatham and local amenities.
Situation good. It was a very busy pub not a hotel. Restaurant quality and selection fair. Reception desk was anyone one could get hold of behind the bar which was heaving!!!
The quiet. The helpfulness of the waitress at breakfast. No answer to phone calls. No night porter.
The location, friendly staff, being above the pub, the breakfast, design of room, view from room and restaurant,ease of booking online, checking in and out.
really helpful staff ,i will return and recommend you.
i like the sauna and pool nothing
The leisure facilities: Gym, swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam room and the breakfast I suggest each toilet room has WC brush and air freshner
the room was very comfortable and clean and the staff were great. facilities very good. some noise form a disco but nothing to heavy
Good breakfast
pool breakfast - no orange juice even when asked. Breakfast very very dry as it was left sitting around on the hotplates for a long time
Staff were pleasant and smiley, room very clean and comfortable. Food excellent.
On arrival there was a problem with the booking, I'm unsure whether the hotel had only received my details from you or had not received any details, but this problem was dealt with swiftly and courtiously. Access to the swimming pool was good. Breakfast was reasonable with good space between tables and no feeling that we were being rushed to finish our meal. The absence of double glazing in our room meant that we could hear the traffic on the main road outside at all times.
We stayed one night. Check in was straightforward and the room more than suitable for our purpose (visiting faimily near by)
arrived at 3.45 pm, room was not ready had to wait until 4.15. hence missed the wedding
friendly helpful, clean and tidy value for money
friendly staff. was made welcome. nothing
The room was a sea view room and very large, bedroom and bathroom very clean, very very close to southend pier and amusements and to the town centre itself bed was hard but that is a personal prefernce and not one that should be held accountable towards the hotel, the noise from the floorboards from the room above was rather loud both in the night and in the morning so not one for the light sleeper
I did not like the size of the room it was far to small is my knees were touching the shower when sat on the loo. The drains needed sorted as this caused my room to smell and it was far to cold.
slept as i was working localy
The historic significance and the hotel's representation of all that is good and traditional about English "superior guest-house" hospitality. I seriously cannot think of any.
The room was comfy, spacious and lovely decor, view of sea was lovely to wake up to Nothing at all
Very friendly
Nothing The central heating didn't work. I was welcomed by a confused say 15 year old boy. there was a birthday party of the 13 year old daughter in the residents lounge. I didn;t get the seaview room I boooked. they didn;t eeven have my on line booking. In fact there was not on redeeming facot.
Polite staff and good breakfast.
The staff attitudes towards visitor Yes our pravcy was invaded twice by the domestic and this really upset me.
The friendly and helpful staff
Staff helpful and welcoming Parking arrangements a disappointment, low shower pressure, slightly shabby decor, noise of heating system from early hours. This would be ok as a 2 star but is a poor 4 star and I cant see how this is comparable to other 3 star hotels in the area.
Comfortable room and substantial breakfast Bedroom furniture a little dated
The nice proprietors
The hotel was clean, warm and the staff friendly. The breakfast was outstanding. The location was ideal and we really enjoyed our stay 100% No not at all
The hotel is in a quiet location, close to the beach with parking, staff were polite and the room was clean and comfortable I expected a greater variety of food but what was available was good
The breakfast was really good (a lot of choise), and staff was nice and friendly and the location is very good. was noisy. In front of the hotel were few tables and chairs. Other guests were noisy, and we couldnt sleep.
Awesome, fantastic, welcoming staff. This extended through from reception to managers who were hard working and extremely helpful. I may well need to stay in Southend again, and would return to this hotel without hesitation. My wife booked this hotel based on feedback from previous guests, and I was not disappointed. It's probably a bit pricey - but in view of the value, I would be prepared to ignore that in the future. You always get what you pay for, and this place is seriously good.
The staff were very friendly and helpful.
It was comfortable and included a good breakfast. It happened to be in the town where I needed to stay. The separate toilet was a minor nuisance.
could come and go as you please
very cosy
The added touches. soap, dressing gown, clean cup & kettle. tissues in room, fan. variety/extra tea bags, coffee ect, biscuit. Good working shower. Not applicable
Friendly staff, cleanliness, breakfast, architectural design of building Toilet was cold, decor could be better
Freindly, although we have stayed there last year and ten years ago.
Their breakfast was good as well as the good choice of TV channels The seperate toilet and the uncomfortable mattress
Lovely breakfast, with fresh tomatoes and mushrooms. I arrived just before 7am and they were ready to serve. I was abke to get bbc radio 3 and 4 easily.
The proximity to where I needed to be and the free wifi The lack of pressure in shower
Made to feel welcome, very comfortable room and delicious breakfast.
Very friendly owners
The room was clean and well stocked with tea and coffee, the staff were friendly.
Very friendly owner and freshly decorated.
Location. Breakfast. Owners. Almost booked a nearby place at half the price, but was swung by the prospect of an 'Executive Room'. The Waverley has some really lovely rooms... but not all of them it seems, & unfortunately the room we got was a disappointing one - duvet had cigarette burn; carpet was most stained I've ever seen; room was cramped; had to stand on the bed to operate tv from the top (no remote). It's a shame as some rooms looked great, but that just makes it even more disappointing when you pay the same money for one of the poorer ones. We asked if there was another room - but they were all reserved, which shows that people in the know, do return. For a lovely stay ask for one of the more recently refurbished rooms, otherwise you might be disappointed
Good clean family run hotel. Pleasant staff, good facilities and close to attractions. a great bar/bistro with a seaside outlook was situated on the beach a few yards away. None
Lovely styled room, nice suprise. loved the sofa. loads of tea, sugar and milk always an asset Heating didnt work. toilet was heavily stained and smelt, holes in the sheets blinds didnt close at the bottom, had to stand on sofa to draw the curtain. fire alarm sounds 'fire in zone 1. there wasnt any members of staff on site so I dealt with it, muting the alarm and calling a number. My guess is a smoker but if it hadnt been we could have been in trouble
Warm welcome, friendly atmosphere made me feel very at ease.
The view from the suite window. Cook, turned up for breakfast after we did when we were there waiting at 8am. The waitress was also distraught waiting for him to turn up as she could not get into the hotel. We wanted an early start for a 6 hour drive to Cornwall but had to wait for breakfast as we had already decided to have breakfast before we left, but had to wait for a young cook (not chef) to turn up for work because he was probably pissed from the night before and didn't care about any of the guests. Not very professional and I would certainly dismiss him on this occasion. Gives young people who really want to work a bad name. He doesn't deserve a job.
Peace and quite
Very nice hotel. 1 mile from the pier so encouraged walking. Large carpark at the back which was great.
It's location was ideal for my purposes My wife is not good on stairs
Hotel is maintained to a high standard, staff very friendly rooms are small
The room was fantastic, it was a suite. the views were beautiful in the daylight and at night. The food was really good, and reasonably priced as was the bar. I liked the separate apartments block with their own entrance. The breakfast was very good and fresh.
The staff were pleasant and the breakfast good. The room was good too and the bed comfortable. We were located opposite the hotel in the annexe across a small alley leading to the car park, which we didn't know about beforehand. Very open, but on a rainy windy night, not pleasant getting to the other side. No faults otherwise except for lack of hairdrier in room maybe?
The room was smart and clean. The bathroom was particulary new and fresh. No TV remote control in the room. Feint smell of cigarette smoke. Breakfast ok but serve yourself.
We had a most comfortable stay and enjoyed dinner on the night we arrived. The staff were excellent and helpful. We had trouble finding the hotel mainly because of the road works in town and it was dark when we arrived but it would have hleped had the hotel's name been more prominently displayed. Parking was not a problem. There was nothing we did not like. As stated, we had a very comfortable stay.
the situation as it allowed us to visit our children without any problems, and the convenience of being able to come and go as we pleased. Yes New Years Day after booking in the morning for an evening meal for 3 for 8.30. We received a letter under the door to say would we like to go earlier as they were closing at 8. We went at 7.45 and were twice told they were not cooking. We saw many people turned away.
Excellent at reception on arrival, the room was just right for an overnight stop. Nothing
Very friendly staff and very clean and comfortable room
it was all i expected it wasn't there fault but they had no record of my booking
the breakfast. the room was noisy, and although its a non smoking hotel, smoke was coming into the room from people standing outside. the room was next to the railway line and main road and even with the window closed it was very noisy.
Very helpful and friendly staff. Good value,unpretentious food (we had dinner and breakfast) We feel that at £80 for the room, there should be toiletries provided as part of the cost.
We liked the big bed and the uncluttered room. Plenty of hot water and the facilities were all clean and well ordered-just what you hope to get. Staff exceptionally helpful location-but it was as I expected-nowhere to have a gentle stroll after supper
We were using premier inn as a bed for the night whilst visiting friends in the area. for this purpose it was adequate, clean and well located. we paid £55/night so considered this to be reasonable value for somewhere we really only wanted to rest our heads.
As my wife and myself are in found it a bit confusing finding you as I booked on line but didn't see any details about the name of the hotel that I expected to find by the the roadside instead of the Bobbing Apple, with the Hotel tucked cosily away behind it but after 3 tries I eventually found you. I have written this summary in the good points summary box as the the wife reckons I'm a silly old fool and put it down to my age, therefore I could'nt very well put in the bad points box. Seriously though we Both agreed it was a most pleasantly comfortable friendly Hotel with First Class Staff which all went to towards making a stay a Great One. Thank You All, sincerely Brian and Jean Pout See above

If familiarity really does breed contempt, the All-Star Game might be spiced up by some fierce confrontations between the Yankees and Phillies.
The last two World Series champions, who met in last year's Fall Classic and face each other June 15-17 in the season's second round of interleague play, have the most players in each league's first ballot for the All-Star Game.
Philadelphia second baseman Chase Utley leads the NL's overall voting, and four of his teammates – shortstop Jimmy Rollins, third baseman Placido Polanco and outfielders Jayson Werth and Shane Victorino – also placed first at their positions. See NL All-Star voting and AL All-Star voting.
Polanco, a converted second baseman, is outpolling the Mets' David Wright by more than 70,000 votes.
The Yankees had three position leaders – first baseman Mark Teixeira, second baseman Robinson Cano and shortstop Derek Jeter – plus the chance for an all-New York infield if second-place Alex Rodriguez overtakes the Rays' Evan Longoria at third base.
West Coast voters wary of East Coast representatives dominating the game – which will be played July 13 in Anaheim – better get busy casting their ballots. The only player from a West Coast team among the first-ballot leaders in both leagues is the Mariners' Ichiro Suzuki, a perennial All-Star shooting for his 10th selection.

Optical data net service access was a function provided by a number of devices utilized by the Federation Starfleet during the mid-24th century.
Allowing users to gain access to library computer information and subspace communications on desktop terminals and PADDs, these devices tapped directly into the optical data network. (DS9: "Armageddon Game"; Star Trek: First Contact)
Glimpsed only fleetingly on both Captain Benjamin Sisko's and Jean-Luc Picard's desktop monitors, "Optical data net service access" labels could also be found adhered to PADDs as seen in The Art of Star Trek.
An access panel in Voyager's Main Engineering shown on E! Inside Star Trek: Voyager was labeled as "302 Optical Data Net Service Access" with the description "Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale a tale of a fateful trip", a reference to the TV Series Gilligan's Island.

93 Worth, Restored Classic Loft Conversion in Tribeca, Launches Residential Sales
December 04, 2012NEW YORK, N.Y. (December 4, 2012) – Izaki Group Investments USA (IGI USA) and CORE announce that sales have commenced at 93 Worth Street, a coveted residential conversion in New York City. Located at 93 Worth Street, between Broadway and Church Street in Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood, 93 Worth has been converted, restored and modernized into 92 condominium units that combine historic detail with the conveniences of modern loft living.
Built in 1924, 93 Worth is an 18-story building offering a mix of studio, one, two, three and four-bedroom residences, along with seven grand penthouses. The lofts feature oversized, custom 7-foot windows, solid wood doors, high ceilings, original exposed steel columns, 7-inch wide white oak plank floors and private laundry.
The kitchens include custom, hand-finished patina brass fixtures with appliances from Viking, Sub-Zero and Miele. Bathrooms consist of custom, brass patina fixtures, stained oak cabinet vanities with marble tops, and marble-tiled floors and walls. Most residences feature a wet room with enameled, cast iron clawfoot tub and ceiling mount rainforest showerhead.
"93 Worth fills a void in the market. It is rare to find homes like these in a pedigreed building in one of the best neighborhoods in New York City." noted Shaun Osher, CEO of CORE, the exclusive sales and marketing agency for 93 Worth.
93 Worth boasts an original, grand vaulted lobby with details including perforated Corian panels inspired by Tribeca's historic textile industry.

Khloe And Lamar
December 12, 2011 by staff
Khloe And Lamar, Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom's move to Dallas is going to be filmed for Khloe and Lamar and Keeping Up With The Kardashians. There is no way to keep the Kardashians from the headlines. First Kim's divorce led to the creation of a Kardashian boycott; then Kourtney Kardashian got pregnant with her second child; and now Khloe is going to be moving to Dallas. E! was hoping to create up to four new Kardashian-oriented reality shows, so now the network certainly has plenty of new stories to choose from.
Khloe's move to Dallas will really pull in the viewers – the Big D might be another big city, but it's quite a different scene than L.A., New York, or Miami. There is a slightly similar nightlife as far as bars, clubs, and restaurants go, but Khloe Kardashian is definitely going to get hooked on barbecue and Tex-Mex food. Plus she's going to have to get a pair of cowboy boots and practice making her hair just a little bit bigger.
Luckily Khloe's first taste of Texas will be filmed for those just dying to see how she and Lamar Odom handle the move. According to TMZ, Lamar's adjustment to playing for the Dallas Mavericks and Khloe's adjustment to being so far away from her family will be filmed for both Khloe and Lamar and Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

Tyler Reed Named SEC Swimmer of the Week
Nov. 24, 2009
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Junior Tyler Reed has been named the Southeastern Conference's Swimmer of the Week after his two individual victories at the Tennessee Invitational last week in Knoxville. Reed posted a victory in the 200-freestyle with the nation's current fastest time of 1:35.26 in his first place tap.
Reed also scorched the field with a win in the 100-free with a time of 43.86. That mark is the third-best time in the country currently. Both the 100 and 200-free times rank as the fastest times in the SEC.
The junior from Morgantown, Ky., also tapped in second in the 500-free at the UT Invite where he posted a clip of 4:20.89. The 500-free time is a new career-best for the Wildcat and it pushes him to third on the UK all-time list in that event. All three of his individual times qualified as NCAA 'B' time standards.
Reed was also instrumental in two of Kentucky's relays. Reed was the first leg of the winning 400-free relay team that set an NCAA 'B' mark with a time of 2:55.69. The junior then anchored the second-place 800-free relay team that also earned an NCAA 'B' mark with a clip of 6:33.60.
The honor of SEC Swimmer of the Week is the first of Reed's career and second such honor for the Blue and White this season. Earlier this season senior Eric McGinnis was tabbed the conference's top performer of the week.

Center For Human Rights and Humanitarian Law
November 18, 1978
RESOLUTION No 31/78
Case 2553 (ARGENTINA)
"The purpose of this letter is to determine the whereabouts of a female child, named CLARA ANAHI MARIANI, born on August 12, 1976 in La Plata.
"It is public knowledge that on November 24, 1976, at approximately 1.30 p.m., an armed confrontation took place between the joint forces and the occupants of a farm located on Calle 30, between 55 and 56, in La Plata. This house was the residence of Daniel E. Mariani, his wife Diana E. Teruggi, and their three-month old daughter, CLARA ANAHI.
"According to a newspaper reports and reports from neighbors, the house--where the child was--was completely surrounded by the joint forces before the confrontation which lasted for several hours.
"On the day following the event, an oral report was made to the 5th Police Precinct that the child's name did not appear in the summary proceedings along with the names of those who had died and who had been identified by the police.
"On March 3, 1977, a written reply was received to one of the notes presented to the Chief of Infantry Regiment No. 7, Colonel Conde, reporting that the child's whereabouts were unknown, but that Police Headquarters of Operations Area 113 was continuing the investigation.
"Dr. Sambucetti initiated proceedings No. 36.792 in Juvenile Court No. 2. Reports were obtained from the Children's Hospital, the Fire Departments, the Regional and Police Units. All replies were negative, and the police were informed that no minor had been at the place where the incident occurred.
"After a year of continuous and anguished searching, the child's whereabouts are still unknown. She has not been found alive or dead, and there is no explanation for her disappearance."
. . .
. . .
55. MARIANI, Clara Anahí: Investigation conducted by the competent authorities to determine her whereabouts has not produced positive results to date (CASE 2553)."
"The reply you received from the Government of Argentina is the same as it gives to all inquiries about people who have disappeared, regardless of their age. I believe that for a military government, which has such an efficient intelligence service, it would not be difficult to establish, if it wanted to, the whereabouts of a baby who was not yet walking and who needed to be bottle-fed to survive.
"We feel that CLARA ANAHI is in the hands of the Argentine authorities or that the authorities have disposed of her, for the following reasons:
"Insofar as giving away other people's children is concerned, I can inform you that Monsignor has told us that he had rescued several little children who were in the hands of policemen who had registered them as their own.
"The clergy must be aware of this, just like every other person in this land.
"It has not been possible to rescue CLARA ANAHI. Was she given away by some important person? Or it is some very important person who has her? The secrecy surrounding the matter would lead one to think so. (Also some comments that have been heard.) If there is a witness, for obvious reasons, one cannot rely on his coming forward with information.
"A further point which lacks confirmation is that apparently DIANA E. TERUGGI was gunned down when the confrontation began, while she was trying to escape through the back of the house carrying her child with her. They cut her in half, and falling, the child was bathed in her mother's blood and although unconscious, was unharmed. From there, they would have wrapped her up and given her to some important person who disposed of her.
"What is known therefore is:
"The names of the military and police officers who were present while DANIEL's house was being attacked appeared in the newspapers of November 25, 1976. I believe that they must naturally know CLARA ANAHI's fate. And we also feel that they must be able to remember the event well because it was the longest, one of the bloodiest and I believe the only one, where, at the end, they used a bomb generating a temperature of 2000 degrees, to end the resistance. (This is what was said at the Federal Police in La Plata.)
"In this search for CLARA ANAHI MARIANI, case 2553, everything remains unchanged: her whereabouts are unknown, despite numerous inquiries that have been made. We have to go to the Directora Nacional de la Minoridad (the National Juvenile Bureau); the Provincial Director for Juveniles, we have held interviews with all the juvenile judges in Buenos Aires. The Supreme Court took up the case with much interest, but finally declared that it did not have jurisdiction."
The Commission received the following additional information from the complainant in a note dated August 18, 1978:
"There was hope of finding CLARA ANAHI through the National Juvenile Bureau, but they say that there are no records on file. There are still checking adoptions during the past two years at our request. They don't know what results this might bring; let us hope that they might be able to locate one of the fifteen babies that we are looking for."
. . .
"C. Persons on whom investigator proceedings have been started to determine their whereabouts and possible status because there was no record of denunciations earlier than that made by that Commission:
. . .
16. MARIANI Clara Anahí, (Case 2553)."
