Delta Vancouver Airport – Richmond, British Columbia

We took a road trip to Vancouver one weekend and did a booking for Richmond, BC where we stayed at Delta Vancouver Airport which was right at the Vancouver airport and just a bridge away from Richmond.

The guest room we stayed in had an adjoining room door which made it a bit noisy when the neighbors were there. It wasn’t too bad overall. The size of the room was nice and it definitely housed 2 guest really comfortably with a Queen sized bed.

The room had tons of storage area and a nice TV and desk area, as well as a little seating area.

The bathroom was a standard bathroom, but it was nice and extremely clean. I didn’t use their bathroom amenities besides their hand soap and that was quite nice – and left a beautiful fragrant!

Overall, our stay was great! The location was definitely a key point as it’s close to the highways, the airport, and Richmond – where we had family.

Crowne Plaza Fort Lauderdale Airport/Cruise Port

We made a stop at Fort Lauderdale right before a cruise on the Allure of the Seas and checked-in to the Crowne Plaza Airport/Cruise hotel which conveniently offered a shuttle to the hotel from the airport, and a really good rate on a taxi to the cruise port. This hotel was really much more than what we were hoping for, and it was really nice.

We checked in quite late as our flights got in late. Our room had 2 queen beds in the room which was really large and had tons of space. The beds were extremely comfortable, but I’m not sure if it was just me as we traveled all day or if it was a dreamy and luxurious of a bed as I remembered it to be.

The bathroom was a good size bathroom and had lots of counter space. It wasn’t anything special, but it was really nice with a modern design.

This hotel offered many amenities such as parking, pool and fitness room and a restaurant. The food and service at the restaurant was delicious as we ended up eating our late dinner there and an early breakfast before we left. It was an excellent stay and we would go back to this hotel again. It offered fair rates in the area.

The area wasn’t a bad area, there wasn’t a lot you can do within walking distance, but as mentioned it’s a convenient place to stop if you’re going to board a cruise.

Radisson Hotel Vancouver Airport

We were invited to a very special wedding that took place in Richmond, British Columbia, and we wanted to find a hotel that was close to famiily, food, and other amenities. We found the Radission Hotel that was located at a perfect location – right at the intersection of No. 3 and Cambie Road. Right beside the hotel is the T&T Supermarket and behind that supermarket was another plaza Yaohan Centre.

We arrived into Vancouver quite early – around 10am, and got our rental car and decided to go and try to check-in before we go find some food. The front desk staff was extremely friendly and she made our check-in experience very memorable. She was also very knowledgeable and helpful when we asked her a few questions and recommendations regarding the local area!

We arrived into our room and we thought the room and hotel was beautiful! We had a room with a King Bed, with the sleep number system – which is something I really enjoy! There was a huge desk and lots of space in the room – complete with a small coffee maker and a mini fridge in the room, and a in-room safe in the closet.

The bathroom was large with again, tons of counter space! The bathroom amenities were quite nice as well – which is their line of products they use from other Radisson hotels. the bar bath soap is a massaging bar soap with a hint of almond scent. Their line of products was at a nice quality – even though I dug out my own products the second day – as my skin is more sensitive. My husband continued to use the Radisson products though – so you know he liked it! He did comment on the nice bath soap too! The shower doesn’t have a lot of pressure – so it’s a light shower. The water does get really hot, so that’s a nice treat! You don’t even need to wait a few minutes for the hot water either! The sink does drain quite slowly – so it’s important to turn the water off!

Parking at the hotel was complimentary to guests! We registered the car at the front desk during check in and there was no problem. There wasn’t a lot of parking in the front parking lot – but apparently there is an overflow lot which we didn’t have to use! Our car was left in the lot for the entire day for one of the days as we got picked up from another family member, and there was no problem with our car at all! Overall, the stay was really nice! The service was great, and the location was wonderful and convenient! We will probably be staying at this hotel when we visit again!

Burger King – Birmingham Airport

As we know from a previous trip, Europe has really good burgers at Burger King so, we gave it a shot, at the airport! We were right, the burger was excellent! We tried the Smoked Bacon and Cheddar Burger and the patty was quite good! The best fast food burger we have had in awhile. Too bad burgers from Burger King back home just isn’t the same, and often under cooked!

The combo like all other places comes with a drink and fries, and the French Fries here was really good as well! I think they actually use better oil to fry it up! Not a bad start to the overseas trip! 🙂
