Given there was plenty to see and do, but there also would be tourists in droves and finding suitable accommodation at the peak of the season would be very difficult.

The results could be easily sorted by location, price, star rating, brand, features and property type. The hotel pages gave details of amenities, guest reviews, a location map, and photos to help me with my decision. A secure payment page ensured that my personal and credit card details would remain private and confidential.
