Recommendations for perfect weekend break, euro city or uk, romantic small hotel, good food essential...

[CountessDracula]

dh and I want to go somewhere really lovely for a weekend for our wedding anniversary this year (end sept). We have rather neglected our anniversary for a few years since dd has been around, we have had a bit of a tough time recently which we have come through and have really sorted out and we are madly in lurve . We would really love to go somewhere relaxing and beautiful and stay somewhere small and intimate and fab. Nothing too designery really, maybe with nice antiques and big snuggly bed and a balcony with a view...

All suggestions welcomed...

How about www.mrandmrssmith.com/luxury-hotels/italy-hotels/veni ce-hotels/dd724/this

No balcony but room does have it's own terrace...

no
iceland no
scandanavia no

am currently fancying the corona d'oro in Bologna

This is going to be a very short conversation with your DH if you only have a shortlist of one.

Hmm-probably too modern.

i desperately do not wnat a flat screen in my room
in fact no tv would be fine
the phrase "iconoclastic designer den" just makes me think of total twats tbh

hate to say it but surely just a whole weekend away... without children is enough? It could be anywhere?
i still reckon by the sounds of this thread your best bet is Venice.. you can stay on one of the little islands not have to been in the main city...

yes well that is Mr and Mrs Smith "twat speak"-sorry but missed your "no modern hotels.

Will be back though.

possible rooms over canal quiet and romantic

with view

Are we getting anywhere yet ???

Or do you want smaller like Ca Adele ?

I like locanda vivaldi but some of the rooms look vile and like they may induce epilepsy or something!

If you are prepared to tackle crowds og Prague, this place is nice

hotel u zlate studny

Ok-complete curve ball-ignore the picture of the room on the first page but have a look atthis

Corna d oro looks great, but has NO BALCONIES!!!!(miffed that you are not sticking to your own criteria)

Choose the city and then a hotel or this could go on forever.

I'm going to bookmark it though for our visit to Bologna.

have you been there before CD? We've heard great things about it.

Wrong link-=don't bother...back in a sec.

felcity in the second trip advisor review it says that they have terraces or something

I just want a bit of outdoors

Oh yes it does mention a patio.

Go, go and tell me all about it.

When are you going on this trip anyway?

thanks rosa

first one - looks great but not enough info on websie and no balconies or terraces that I can see

second one, the rooms are awful like an old granny#s house!

Third one - link not working

4th - lovely from outside but awful rooms!

end of september

i mean look at this terrible mish mash of styles etc

So first decide on a country:

Is it to be Italy

Other Euro country

or UK?

tehn we'll talk citiea and then hotels.
