You often
advise guests about sailing to/from countries within Asia,
how does one go about this and who do we contact? Also, are
there any boats/yachts for charter as crew members in any of
the Asian Regattas? We are particularly interested in crew
positions on a racing yacht for the King's Cup Regatta or
the Raja Muda Regatta. |

The folk to
contact are either Thai marine and Leisure on
charters@thaimarine.com or one of the Sunsail companies on
http://www.sunsailthailand.com/ or
www.sunsailmalaysia.com/
for charters
to/from Thailand or Malaysia as well as regatta charters or
you can contact private individuals. I do know of a lovely
34ft X-yacht (342X) that's available for all the Asian Regattas
that's about to be re-launched after a complete refit, that
would be ideal too. The people to contact are either Mick
on
mick@octopusasia.com

Our honeymoon
was TOPS thanks to you. Although we honeymooned with our
children aged 4 and 6 in tow, your suggestion to go to the
Maldives as originally planned proved an excellent idea, as
did your advice on how to entertain the kids. Thanks so much
for your assistance and recommendations, your advice was
more than perfect and our honeymoon the best ever. |

And thank you for your
great article too that tells us all about your adventures.
For anyone interested we will be publishing this in our
November issue of our monthly
Tangent
E-zine offering inside travel
information, excellent hotel promotions and other interesting
travel bits and bobs you can't afford to travel without. |

I want to go
white water rafting but am disabled. Do you know of anywhere
around Townsville where I can do this that will cater to my
disability, as this is where our
hotel is located? |

You
can do this sport on the Tully River in Mission Beach which is
near Townsville and they will be able to cater to your
disability as well as other outfits in the area. I suggest you
ask for more details at your hotel on arrival. |

Our Langkawi
hotel was perfect. Can you help us again? We plan on
visiting Thailand and Myanmar next and wondered if you sold
accommodation in these countries too? |

Yes
we do and you can access these pages by clicking the following
links: Myanmar Hotels,
Thailand
Hotels. We also carry comprehensive
guides to each
country which I suggest you take a look through even if you
have visited before. |

If it wasn't
for your live agent service I would have paid twice for my
accommodation at the hotel booked through Hotel Travel and
then probably had months of waiting for my rebate.
Fortunately on arrival at the hotel, when they challenged my
booking confirmation I was able to tell them to go on-line
and chat to your staff about the booking. They did and
immediately sorted it out, although it was 2 a.m. in the
morning. What better booking service could I have wished
for? Hotel Travel, you have my vote every time. |

At times there are
problems on arrival at your chosen hotel, fortunately they are
however, rare. If guests do experience difficulties it can
quickly be resolved by contacting us at any time as we are
open 24 hours a day 365 days a year either via our Live Agent
service, telephone, fax or email.

It's nice to know you
are REAL! |

It's nice to
know you are REAL! I have been booking accommodation via the
internet for a few years now, but have never quite received
the services offered by Hotel Travel and thus use you all
the time now. Since you started publishing your monthly
hotel promotions in your
Tangent
E-zine
I have been able to utilise these offers quite a bit and it
has certainly added to the value offered by your company, as
far as I am concerned.
Great
promotions everyone, keep up the excellent web site and keep
sending me my monthly newsletter so that I know what's
coming up in the Asia/Pacific region that's worth attending,
plus of course I'm hoping to win your monthly draw and get
you to pay my hotel accommodation one day... |

Thank you for your regular
custom. Like many of our clients we see repeat bookings
occurring often and have folk who have been using our
services since the company's inception. However our monthly
draw is random and as much as we would like to pay for all our
regular customers accommodation at least once, it wouldn't be
fair to manage the lucky draw in this manner. All who have
booked their accommodation through us are entitled to a chance
to win and who knows, your lucky day may yet become a reality.
The only way to ensure you are in the draw, is to keep booking
accommodation through us...as the saying goes: "You have to be
in it to win it" and you certainly are. Good luck!
By the way we run hotel
promotions on our web pages too, just click here for more

Wow, Australia
features on your pages now, plus India and a few other
countries. I last accessed Hotel Travel Network 2 years ago and boy
have you grown. Originally I was only going to book our
accommodation in Malaysia and Singapore through your
excellent services but can now book for our 'round Asia'
trip, plus book a hotel in Sydney for a few days en-route,
to visit my sister-in-law's family. This is real service.
Thank you Hotel Travel for making our travel plans so
simple. |

Nice to know
we can help. In the future we intend opening up in a lot more
countries, so keep an eye out for more hotel bargains no
matter where you want to visit as who knows, your country of
choice, may be next and as we will again be offering our up to
75% discounted hotel/resort accommodation in these countries
too, you can't go wrong in booking with us. |
