This hotel is very popular with wheelchair users - and you can see why. The wet room bathrooms are very large indeed and allow plenty of space for moving around. If you need a third bed, they have a sofa bed which could sleep another adult or two small children. If you are taking a mobile hoist you will need to request that the bed is raised (easily done with screw in legs) as there is a metal bar which prevents the legs of the hoist from going under the bed. Food was OK and buffet style at breakfast and dinner. The staff were friendly and helpful. Just one point to mention - the waste water from the rooms above passes through a pipe which is inside part of the room - this could disturb some guests if they are sensitive to sound. It is a short distance, on he flat to all the main attractions and the promenade which goes to Costa Adeje and Los Cristianos. If you venture inland, wheelchair users will need some electrical assistance as it can be quite hilly in parts. Overall, a great value hotel in a good position. Getting the reservation confirmed with the hotel by email took longer than expected.

We stayed at Shelburne Hotel and Suites over the New Year period. We had a large room on the second floor. Good size roll-in shower , and a convenient (small) kitchen area. We were a party of 4 including two permanent wheelchair users who needed 24-hour care , hoisting etc. We hade plenty of space for all our equipment without feeling cramped. The hotel is in mid-Manhattan , conveniently located and a short stroll from Grand Central Station, subway platforms are accessible by elevator. Good restaurant on site also.

The accessible rooms at the Crown Plaza are on the 14th floor with views across the city. We stayed there shortly after Grenfell, which freaked us out a tad.There was no profiling bed and hiring one in effectively doubles the cost of an overnight stay. I think a ceiling hoist and profiling bed should be provided together. I struggled to carry out all care needs bent over a low bed. As a large chain, I think the CP should have a profiling bed as an option.

For wheelchair users this ship is not the best. Many of the doors are not automatic, especially going into the self-serve restaurant and accessing the promenade deck. Although the ship does have a hoist which enables access to the exterior pool and hot tub, when we asked to use it, the main battery and the spare were flat. Being an older ship, there is no access to the front of the theatre, and wheelchair users are right at the back with a 'safety bar' right in their line of sight. Like most other cruise lines, Princess offers little in the way of wheelchair accessible excursions ; we did our own thing using public transport, and this itinerary it worked just fine. The food was nothing special and at times unappealing as it was either almost cold or luke warm. Entertainment in the evenings was hood from the musical groups onboard, but the stage shows were mediocre. The cabins are in need of serious refurbishment in the bathroom areas. Overall a big disappointment from Princess

Alice village was about the half way point of a 9,000km road trip across Australia, And we were so glad we found it. Our unit had two bedrooms, each with their own bathroom, a very well equipped kitchen, small sitting room, big covered deck with picnic table, and free laundry. It was priced lower then two hotel rooms and was clean, comfortable and quiet. The staff was cheerful, and seemed happy to chat. It’s not a five star hotel but well worth it. Thanks Sally!
