Hotels in Europe
My family and I will be going to europe this Jun 04. There will be 4 of us
travelling together. My two children are age 19 and 15. Does the hotel allow 4 of us to say in one room or is there such family room hotels in Spain, France and Italy. As i will be travellin for a month, i ned to be budget conscious. Any recommendation is greatly appreicated. |

(even expensive hotels do not tend to come with two king size beds in Europe- do not be thinking about the Comfort Inn down the road) |

In other countries, you might try family apartments instead of hotel rooms. Regards, ULF |

The two king size beds concept that is common in the US is uncommon in Europe (e-mail is spam trap only) |

Any recommendation is greatly appreicated. Be fore warned, the plunging dollar is going to cost you dearly in Europe. We just got back from England and I hate to see my credit card bill in the mail. Hotel or B&B will let the four of you stay in one room, provided they have rooms to fit that many persons, two signles and a double, four signles, or the combination. Now you should have an idea of how much space that leaves for anything else. Here in the States, it is not unusual when you get a room, it has two doubles for four people even though you are the only person staying and if you want to cram 10 people in it, it is to your own discomfort. It doesn't work that way in Europe, or anywhere else in the world for that matter. We in the US are spoiled. |

Not always... if food is included there probably will be a maximum age for a child .- which could be from 11 and up. If its "Room only" it really shouldn't make any difference. Jan |

We stayed in the Ibis in Reims two years ago and got a suite for 430 FF, less than half what we paid for a room for two in Paris. We also found Mercure hotels to be fairly reasonable, much nicer than the Ibis. The Mercure did not charge for our 15 year old son, and when in Paris he got his own room for free. |
