A comprehensive guide to 3,000 hotels and restaurants in 44 major cities throughout Europe.
Michelin Guide 2010 Main Cities of Europe
Main Cities of Europe 2010
Michelin Guide

Hotels in Europe are a world apart from hotels in the USA. You have your choice of super deluxe five stars to lower quality — much lower than anything you would find at home. The sites listed on the right are generally somewhere between these extremes. Each site has requested a listing on this web site and I can not recall ever staying in any of these hotels. But if I do I'll add a note to report on the experience.

Note that in some countries hotel rankings, "stars," are official government categories, e.g. France. In most countries the "stars" are whatever the hotel wishes to award itself. It is best to check with Michelin to verify a hotel quality, especially those claiming top rates and comfort. Go to http:\\www.viamichelin.com, the Michelin site, for hotel rankings and plenty of other information. Also, getting first hand feed back from those who have been there and done that is invaluable. Some sites provide a visitor comments section. When you visit one of the hotels listed be sure to contribute to the knowledge base.

If you would like to suggest a site for this page or another page of the TRAVELERS YELLOW PAGES fill in the form below and I'll check it out. Cross linking helps us both in search engine rankings. However, your site or page must be of significant interest to Europe bound travelers to be considered. There is no cost for this listing. Put the site title, as you would like it to appear, in line 1. Please keep it brief in keeping with the other titles in this directory. The description comes straight from your web site. Please make it a simple gramatically correct non-promotional description of your site, product, or service. If you do not provide a description I will copy the "description" meta tag from your site home page.

On line 3 include the URL of the page on your site which links to www.enjoy-europe.com.
