Radisson goldpoints plus - Regent, Radisson, Park Plaza, Country Inns&Suites, Park Inn - Reviews

For a better overview I have created this list of reviews. No guarantee that all of these are still Radisson hotels!

Some random comments on this new sticky thread for reviews:

A property's hyperlink will take you to that property's official website.
"Review Thread" hyperlink will take you to a thread here on Flyertalk (most likely here in the Radisson forum) that contains Please note that I've taken the Country order and name etc directly from the GoldpointsPlus website (so please no arguments about the order etc.).
Also, I'm specifically excluding reviews on www.tripadvisor.com (http://www.tripadvisor.com) since I don't find them all that useful and its a common enough site that you can go there and search for yourself if you so desire.

However, I am not merging threads that have more than one property in the title (eg X vs Y), so if you really want to be exhaustive in your search on comments on a particular property, please do a "search" on that property.

Please feel free to post to the thread to add suggestions or links to reviews that they have found etc. Also, if I have missed any properties, please either post here or PM me the property and I will add it as soon as possible. However, these posts will probably be deleted after a period of time in order to keep the sticky clean and useful with discussions on the reviews and/or properties to occur in the originating thread. Please do not be offended if/when we remove your post in this thread.

This is a rather extensive project, so please be patient, the work on it should be finished soon.

I can write up a pretty detailed report on the Oslo Scandanavia property if you want; the one by the Kings Palace

Yes, please do so!

Spent a lot of time at this place

As a non status GP member I was given a small room; as a Gold member I was given the business class upgrade

the property is a couple of blocks from the Kings Palace and right on one of the light rail lines. I do not know which one though as i did not take it. It does go to the Theatre station though

Within walking distance is the harbor and pretty much everything else; in the summer its much more friendly walking than in Dec LOL

Lobby.. you can enter from either side although in the end you come up to the same place. the Lobby has a bar area to the right and a restaurant to the right. (as you walk in) The bar is not too bad; pricey but what isn't in Norway. The b/f that I'd get with my rate was nothing short of excellent and it was a full buffet that had too much to describe. If you enjoy seafood, this is a good one. Check in could have lines if you came in behind a busload of tourists. they do have a closet to hold your bags as well. The lobby is quite busy.

Downstairs is the garage (extremely expensive to park > roughly 60-75 bucks USD a day depending on the NOK exchange rate. Its a tight fit for a small car much less anything midsize or larger. On the lower level is a small indoor pool and a health club with a couple of treadmills, some small dumb bells and other light weight machines. There is a small locker room as well.

Rooms > business class is a larger (good sized I must say) room on the corner. Free pay per view and yeah it includes the soft porn which you have to have them shut off (like I did = kids ya know); water pressure sucks in this building though no matter what room I had and the bathrooms were tiny. There isn't much space to unpack and put your clothes on longer stays. Forget it if there is more than one person traveling. the bedding needs some improvement as they really didn't have much in the way of blankets even in the winter. The curtains are not up to speed and this plays a major role in the summer when its light 20 + hours a day. the sun comes thru the curtains and around the edges as they never seem to fit the entire window. it takes me a week just to get used to this in the summer. The rooms in general are somewhat worn but if you can get the BC room its pretty good.

there is a 7-11 across the street and a couple of decent restaurants. I also found a cool little local pub about a block away. Its up the hill (the street Y's) behind the hotel as you go up hill. take either Y and go to your first cross street and then make like you are going to the other part of the Y and it will be a small place on the harbor side of the street. It was a cool place. There is another deli type place across the street as well that is pretty good.

Flybussen stops right here at the main entrance and the last time I took this it was in the summer and cost about 500 NOK for 4 of us; two kids were free.. I think that was the cost.. i am guessing here trying to remember.. I could be quite wrong about this. The bus does run every 20 minutes or so from the hotel though and it makes about five or six stops prior to Gardenmoen and takes a half hour to 45 minutes or so. You could walk to the National Theatre and take the train as well.

As i think of more, I'll edit this post

Park Inn Sault Ste Marie, Michigan

One (Saturday) night stay. $77/night for room w/2 queen beds. Not a great value but we made reservation 15 mins before arrival on the 1-800-333-3333 number which I've got memorized :)

location is a low-end but newer rural property in on Business I-75, near the K-Mart/Wal-Mart/shopping center/Hampton Inn/Applebees/...

Rooms very basic. Weird diagonal tub-shower which would work well except for the soap dish---it is ridiculously small and useless.

Wi-Fi worked fine. Coffee in-room

My partner took one look at the breakfast buffet and said "we needn't bother"

All in all--it served the purpose.

Dinner across the street at the local Italian place was quite good (in the shopping center with Big Lots).

Oddly, found the service throughout SSM to be terrific...at the hotel, that restaurant for dinner, the hotel restaurant at the place downtown where we had breakfast, at the Sault Locks visitors' center...really warm friendly encounters. Had just come from a not-so-great visit to Mackinac island...don't need to bother with that again.

Country Inn and Suites CMH Airport.

Stayed there February 27-28.

Rate was $59.

Hotel shuttle stopped running at midnight which meant I took a $12 cab (on the late US arrival from PHX).

Non smoking room smelled very much like smoke, as it was nearly 2 AM I decided not to deal with it.

Bathroom was fine and TV worked with plenty of channels.

Bed was not very comfortable.

The breakfast the next day was sufficient and staff were good.
