Wuerzburg Residence

I found the process really easy. Simple layout and lots of options. It was helpful to see the route, allowing me to choose towns better ensuring that the journey would not take us out of our way. Four of our hotels where within easy walking distance of the city center. The hotels were very easy to find with the use of your paperwork and a sat nav. All in all it was a fantastic holiday visiting five countries in ten days. Five different cultures and five different experiences. I am happy to recommend all the hotels we stayed in.

As far as your suggested package was concerned, it suited us perfectly. Before we travelled, we knew what we wanted but didn’t really know how to go about it as we knew little about the cities we wanted to visit, or the hotels which would do the job. My wife just happened upon your website and it really did a great job for us - just enter the cities we wanted to visit and hey, presto! An itinerary! Everywhere we went, the hotels were expecting us and the trip went according to plan. We were happy with the general quality and price of the hotels, and your site was a great help, so we thoroughly enjoyed the break. Thanks!
