Hobby

Hobby is what a person likes to do in his spare time. Hobbies differ like tastes. If you have chosen a hobby according to your character and taste you are lucky because your life becomes more interesting. The most popular hobby is doing things. It includes a wide variety of activities from gardening to traveling, from chess to volleyball. Both grown-ups and children are fond of playing different computer games. This hobby is becoming more and more popular. Making things include drawing, painting, handicrafts. Many people collect something — coins, stamps, compact discs, toys, books. Some collections have some value. Rich people often collect paintings, rare things and other art objects. Often such private collections are given to museums, libraries. As for me, I like to listen to music. 3 months ago my parents bought me a compact disc player and I decided to collect compact discs. I like different music, it should be good. I collect discs of my favourite groups and singers. I carefully study the information printed on disc booklets. I try to find everything about my favourite singers. Also I like to watch music programmes on TV. I want to keep up with the news in the world of music. Of course, I like to spend my spare time with my friends. We talk about all sorts of things (politics, teachers, and girls). We discuss films, books, TV programmes. In fine weather we like to be in the open air. We find a nice place somewhere in the forest. We make a fire, bake potatoes and have a lot of fun. When the weather is bad, my friends come to my place. We have a good time together.

My hobby

Hobby is a special interest that people do in their free time. Everybody has his/her own hobby.

As for me I prefer reading poems and short stories. I believe that fiction literature is one of his best ways of expressing feelings and thoughts. They usually mean more if they are raised to the level of art.

I am fond of piano playing and guitar playing too. I finished musical school two years ago. I am extremely fond of all kinds of dancing: from hip-hop to classical ballet. That is why I often attend different theatres and rap-discos.

Sports play an important part in my life. I am an amateur roller-skater. Once a week I take aerobic classes just to keep fit. Diving is the kind of sports I like best.

I belong to such kind of people who always need changes and new impressions. From this fact it follows that the range of my hobbies is wide. In the nearest future I want to take up horse-riding, parachute-jumping, and mountain skiing.

My hobby

My hobby is painting and drawing. I have finished art school and now I paint and draw in my free time. I depict things that have impressed me deeply: beautiful flowers, poetic landscapes, ancient ruins. I like to paint portraits as well. It is very important to catch a person in a moment of action, feeling, perception and record that moment with unerring strokes. Only geniuses are blessed with this gift. Sometimes I create decorative compositions, large in scale and bright in colour. I paint on canvas and draw on paper. I work in oil and watercolour, pencil and pastel. For me painting is a means to understand the beauty and harmony of the surrounding world, a way to express my own emotions, feelings and perception of life.

It is important for me to study the artistic heritage of great painters. That is why I like to visit museums and art galleries. My favourite painters are Vincent Van Gogh and Victor Borisov — Musatov.

Painting is not the only hobby of mine. I read a lot of books. One of my favourite writers is R.R. Tolkien. In my free time I like to listen to music. Classical music is my favourite one.
My Hobbies

I currently have two hobbies. They are collecting coins and skate boarding. Collecting coins is my indoor hobby while skate boarding takes me outside to experience the fresh air. I find that they provide a nice balance of going out and staying in during my free time.

Since I began collecting coins two years ago, I have met many others who share the same burning interest. It started when my father, who is an airline pilot, brought home his unused coins from his trips around the world. I thought some of them looked exotic. They looked very different from our Singapore coins. I had a liking for the various coins immediately and began collecting them. Now, whenever my father goes on his trips, I beg him to bring home as many different coins as he can. Today, I have over two hundred coins from twenty-four different countries.

My interest in skate boarding, however, grew differently. I started three years ago, when I was in primary four, when a classmate of mine introduced skate boarding to me. At first, I found it difficult to balance on a plank of wood on wheel. I also thought it was silly skate boarding when roller blading was so much easier and faster. But after two weeks of skate boarding every afternoon, I began to love the wind blowing in my hair and the thrill I got going places with it. Today, my favourite skate boarding area is the park by the beach where it’s safe and I do not bump into people while skating.

My two hobbies are important to me because they help me relax from studying too much. I make sure that I do my homework before I even think about my coin collection or skate boarding.

3. 9. Новости и средства массовой информации. Телевидение. Интернет.

Our mankind has entered the 21st century, the 3rd millennium. And what was the 20th century famous for? Why was it important for us, for our history? We all consider that the 20th century was the century of dynamic development, the era of science and technological progress. It is not much of exaggeration to say that we live in the world that materially and intellectually has been created by science. This point of view is easy to illustrate on the material level. One nearly needs to mention the automobile, the airplane, the radio, the telephone and, of course, the television. It is difficult to imagine an ordinary day of an ordinary inhabitant of our Earth without this wonder of technique. Television gives us the opportunity to watch the world, to get fresh first – hand information. It is both a pleasant companion and a real member of a family. It makes people’s living conditions much more comfortable. But unfortunately we go much more seldom to the theatres or museums, pay visits to each other, television

kills” conversation. But we can’t do without television nowadays. It is an indisputable fact. Today we’ll speak about television.

read brief description of different kinds of programmes:

a) Current affairs programmes (deal with political and social problems of modern society. Their aim is to give an analysis of the problems and to show different viewpoints. They are concerned with the country’s national events, festivals and public gatherings. They also include news commentaries);

b) panel discussions (deal with a group of speakers, chosen to speak, answer the questions, take part in a game, before an audience, for example listeners to a broadcast);

c) magazine programmes (programmes which are a mixture of “hard” news and feature items);

d) cartoons ( cinema films made by photographing series of drawings);

e) wild life programmes (programmes showing animals, birds etc. in their natural surrounding (environment);

f) educational programmes (deal with systematic training and instruction of different subjects. With the help of these programmes one can get knowledge and abilities, develop his/her character and mental powers);

g) quiz programmes (programmes on which members of the audience are asked questions, in case of correct answer they receive prizes);

h) “soap” operas (“soap” operas (afternoon television regular feature films) which originally appeared on the radio and were sponsored by soap advisers, continuing from day to day, presenting emotional and melodramatic situations like many operas of the 19th century(thus named “soap” operas);

i) thrillers (novels, plays or films in which excitement and emotional appeal are the essential elements);

j) westerns (uniquely American films presenting myths about pioneering, courageous Americans);

k) sitcoms (situational comedies – short films providing entertainment).

– What are the professions of the people in television?

(announcers, newsreaders, correspondents, commentators, interviewers, quiz masters, cameramen/operators, editors, producers, technicians, soundmen).

Your task is to read it very carefully, to understand it, to grasp the main idea of each passage. Be ready to read the text and the main ideas of the passages. Let’s get down to work.

– Television is doing a lot of harm, I think. We begin to forget how to occupy our spare time. For instance, we used to have hobbies, we used to meet our friends, we used to go outside for our amusements to the theatres, cinemas and sporting events. We used to read books and listen to music. Now all our free time is given to television.

– Well, nobody makes you watch TV. If you don’t like it, switch off your TV set. But why do you forget what a great amount of information we get! I think we must watch TV to be well-informed. It gives wonderful possibilities for education. Besides, there is a considerable variety of programmes. We can choose what we want to see.

– Yes, I agree. But I am always under the impression that little by little television cuts us from the real world. It is so easy to sit in our armchairs watching others working. We get so lazy, we choose to spend a fine day glued to our sets, rather than go out into the world itself. Television may be a splendid medium of communication with each other. Only when we spend a holiday by the sea or in the mountains, far away from civilization, we quickly discover how little we miss television.

– No, I disagree entirely. It’s an absurd idea that television makes you its slave. It enriches our intellect, gives us opportunities to see the best actors and performances, to hear the latest news, to listen to political discussions. In my opinion, TV is a great force in the world.

Дискуссия по темеТелевидение”.

“ Discussion” is from the Latin word that means exchange of opinions. Discussion is based on equal conditions for everybody. Each participant has the right both to ask and to state. The problem is not always solved during discussion, differences in opinions are left sometimes. It is necessary to use argumentation – statements and explanations. Each participant should hold certain discussion regulations:

– to be well-prepared;

– to speak clearly and logically;

– to explain arguments;

– to express opinions quietly;

– not to digress from the topic;

– not to speak too long;

– to listen to others without interrupting them.

Here you can see some discussion phrases. They may help you.

– May I put a word in?

– If you ask me…

– It just occurred to me

– Generally speaking…

– Strictly speaking…

(План дискуссии записан на доске).
And now some words in conclusion.

Television nowadays, its role and responsibility are being widely discussed as it has really become one of the most important mass media. I am sure that television is doing a lot of good because it is invaluable for the information it provides; it has vast educational opportunities; it makes people argue and discuss, think more; it is one of the mighty means of forming people’s character, ideology and outlook. Thus it is clear that television is one of the most valuable achievements.

But it occupies all our spare time. We rush home to be in time for this or that programme. The violence on TV creates violence in real life, television is bad for people’s health, it is like a drug, it “kills” conversation. But is it solely the television which is at fault? Of course, television is a hard test of our wisdom: either we can use it or it can use us. And I think that you use and will use television for your best benefit and enrichment.

Television

The first television broadcast was made on April 20, 1939 by Radio of America (RCA). Since 1939, it has become one of the most important facts of modern life. Television is very much a part of the modern world. Its effects are felt all over the world.

Television is a reflection of the modern world, say some people. It shows contemporary society. It affects customs and culture, others say. Television is bad for culture because it keeps culture from growing, say still others.

Good or bad, television is difficult to avoid. Its pictures enter homes, stores, airports, and factories. It is here to stay!

Mass media.

Mass media (that is the press, the radio and television) play an important role in the life of people. They inform, educate and entertain people. They also influence the way people look at the world and make them change their views. Millions of people in their free time watch TV and read newspapers. Everybody can find something interesting for him there. On the radio you can listen to the music, plays, news and discussions or commentaries of events. A lot of radio or TV games and films attract a large audience. Newspapers uses in different ways, but basically they are read. There is a lot of advertisement on mass media. Some of the TV and radio stations and newspapers are owned by different corporations. The owners can advertise whatever they choose. Mass media try to raise cultural level of the people or to develop their artistic taste. Mass media brings to millions of homes not only entertainment and news but also cultural and educational programs. There are more than twenty TV channels and lots of radio stations and newspapers now in the Russian Federation.

The mass media

The press, the radio and TV play an important role in the life of society. They inform, educate and entertain people. They also influence the way people look at the world and make them change their views. Mass media shapes public opinion. Millions of people in their spare-time read newspapers. It is impossible to imagine our life without newspapers. Millions of copies of them appear every day. Many people subscribe to two or more newspapers, others buy newspapers on the news-stands. There are national daily newspapers such as «The News» and «The Economic newspaper». There are also national weekly newspapers such as «The arguments and the facts». Most national newspapers express a political opinion and people choose them according to their political beliefs. Most newspapers contain news, detailed articles on home and international affairs, reviews of book are and TV-shows. Mane of them cover sport events. There are local newspapers in every city and town of Russia. The most popular local newspapers in Moscow are «The Moscow Komsomolets» and «Evening Moscow», in Kazan — «Evening Kazan. It is a local paper, because it is circulated only in our city. It is a daily paper because it is issued for times a week. The circulation of this paper is more than 80 thousand copies. This paper is delivered to our house. I am fond of reading it because it gives a full coverage of the events at home and abroad. One can also find newspapers for teenagers and children, for sportsfans and people of different professions. In Britain there are great differences between the various daily newspapers — in the type of news they report and the way they report it. On the one hand there are «quality» newspapers: «The Times», «The Guardian «, «The Daily Telegraph». These concern themselves, as far as possible, with factual reports of major national and international events, with the world of politics and business, and with the arts and sport. On the other hand there are the popular and tabloids, so-called because of their smaller size. The tabloids — the most widely read of which are «The Daily Mail», «The Daily Express» and «The Sun» — concentrate on more emotive reporting of stories often featuring violence, the Royal Family, film and pop stars and sport. The tabloid press is much more popular than the quality press. In addition to the national daily newspapers there are some national papers which are published on Sundays. Most of the Sundays contain more reading matter than daily papers. Besides, nearly every area in Britain has one or more local newspapers. The British are one of the biggest newspaper-reading nations in the world. Millions of people watch TV. In our technological age TV has become a part of daily life. It broadens our horizons and enriches our mind because there are different programs on the arts, history, archeology, technical inventions. The strength of our television lies in its high quality, in its willingness to experiment and its ability to please most tastes. But a peculiar feature of modern TV is a soap-opera. It is s sentimental serial drama dealing with domestic problems. Most people find soap-operas boring. There is a lot of advertising on TV. The same advertisements are repeated dozens of times every day which bores the viewers. In my opinion some new American films pull the rest of the people down to their own intellectual level. But it hardly fair to say that our media do not try to raise the cultural level of the people or to develop their artistic taste. Many of the TV programs are excellent, they are made in a good taste and with a great professional skill. The radio is turned on most of the time. It doesn’t interfere with your activities. You can listen to the radio while doing some work about the house, reading a book or driving a car. On the radio one hear the music, plays, news and various commentaries and discussions. Radio and TV bring into millions of homes not only entertainment and news but also cultural and educational programs. For instants you can take a TV course in history, political, economy, management and many other subjects, learn a foreign language by radio. My favorite is «Current affairs». This program deals with political and social problems of modern society. Its aim is to give an analysis of the problems and to show different view points.
And now I want to say some words about computers. The computer is a data storage system created by man. A human tells the machine what to do, when to do and how it should be done. And there is no magic involved. The machine is programmed to process data fast and accurately. Computers do a lot of useful operations, calculations, keep records of our financial affairs, create charts and drawings, and process the results of different experiments. They are applied in weather forecasting, medicine, manufacturing and research. They save a lot of energy and time.

There is a global network the Internet we use as Mass Media. It helps us to find new information, news. We can communicate with other people. Let’s read the text “What is the Internet today?” and do the tasks.

What is the Internet today?”

The Internet is the world largest computer network. It appealed in our country not many years ago, but it has become known to many people not only in the capital of Russia but also all over the country. And the same thing happens in many developing countries. People can find out a lot of useful information, and give information about themselves there. But why do people want to be «on the Internet»?

It seems to me that people like to do it because they can feel freedom on the Internet. But what does this freedom of the Internet include? Firstly it is equality. It does not matter what your race or age or nationality or wealth is, you can post your message to the Internet and you will be heard. You will find a lot of people who will support you and who will not support you. You will find your allies and enemies there. And this is the freedom to express your opinion, which is next to the freedom of choice. On the Internet you can choose information to your own taste or need. Nobody can make you look at something that you do not need or do not like. If do not like something, you just type another address and in a second you are already there where you want to be. But what can you choose from these different resources? It may be pornography or silly games. But it seems to me that very few people view pornography on the net. So these people will not influence all «inhabitants».

And now about the games: there are «tons» of very useful games, which will help you to understand the economy of the city, improve your language skills and vocabulary, or at least give you better skills in using the «mouse».

There is also a freedom of movement. There are no borders on the Internet and you can travel all over the Internet without any prohibitions. If you need some information about some foreign» country, you can get it. You do not need any visas to explore web sites in foreign countries.

Also you can vote on the Internet. There are a lot of questionnaires where you can express your attitude towards something. So the main principles of democracy are kept on the Internet.

The fact is that we can use all these resources for our educational purposes. And, as I said previously, anyone can find information of his own choice. The Internet makes it easier to find books (for example for your research paper) or articles, and now even to listen to and watch famous people.

Now teachers, students, professors, scientists, librarians and lawyers use the Internet to search for useful information because it is the fastest and the most convenient way to do it. We can get data for our research in just seconds after pushing a few buttons. This is no small deal, since entire books can be transferred through the Internet in a matter of minutes. Today millions of such files are available to anyone who asks for them.

But unfortunately there are some problems concerning the Internet. I think that it is not good that internet users communicate only with the people on the Internet. They stop talking with their relatives and friends because they have only virtual friends. So the Internet destroys real human communication.

Maybe someone’s interpersonal communication was destroyed, but now technology can give us an opportunity to communicate with our relatives and friends as if we are in the same room. People can be close to each other even being on different continents. And if a person is mentally normal, heshe will never prefer communication with computer to relatives.

In the conclusion I’d like to say that the Internet will help to develop our educational level due to its democracy and freedom. And after the people will find out what freedom is, they will develop in their country. After the Internet will guide us to the one open society, there will be no borders on the Earth any more; and we will live in peace and will respect each other like on the Internet. ‘

Hotel industry

Our society is made up of all kinds of organizations, such as companies, government, departments, unions, hospitals, schools and the like. They are essential to our existence, helping to create our standard of living and our quality of life. In all these organizations, there are people carrying out the work of a manager. The role of the manager is particularly significant in such social sphere as the lodging industry.

The lodging industry is the most important element of the social sphere. It plays the leading part in the increase of the public production and accordingly in the upliftingly of living standards.

One can designate the hotel as an enterprise rendering service to the people, which are out of doors. The service of the placing and the nourishment is the leading one at the hotel.

The hotel apartments are the basic element of the placing service. They are intended for the rest, sleeping and work of the guests. In additional the placing service includes the service, which is done by the personal of the hotel. These are receptions and official registration of the guests, cleaning the rooms and others.

The nourishment consists of different processes:

  • process of production (preparation of dishes),

  • trade process (sale of the food products),

  • service process (service of the guests by the waiters at the restaurant, in the rooms).

The additional service includes swimming-pools, conference halls, hair-dresser’s, massage-room and many other things. The hotel is distinguished by the additional service among other hotels. Therefore this service is very important by the forming of the attractiveness of the hotel.

Among the main services of the hotel one can also distinguish the reserving the place, the facilities and the service of the exploitation of the apartment fund.

The service of the nourishment, the placing service and the additional service are formed different at the hotels. And so one can designate several types of the hotels.

The first class hotels are usually situated in the center of the city. The skilled staff ensures the high level of the service. The clients of this kind of the hotel are businessmen, participants of the conferences and other rich men.

The health-resort hotel is situated in the health-resort country. It includes the medical service and the dietary nourishment.

The motel is located near the motor roads and in the suburbs. The clients of the motel are tourists, particularly motor tourers.

The middle class hotels render the broad service. The prizes depend on the situation of the hotel. The leading types of the hotels are the business and health-resort ones, because 50% of the journeys are made with business purpose, and holiday are treatment purpose determines 40% of the journeys. The hotels are classified by the level of the comfort, the capacity of the hotel, the purpose of the hotel, the situation of the hotel, the duration of the work, the providing with the nourishment, the duration of the stay at the hotel, the level of the prices.

Those whose jobs require spending most of the year living out of suitcases are the most attractive clients for big-city hotels, but also the most demanding.

Constantly on the move, these businesspeople expect their hotels to be a home away from home. Some who like consistency go for the international chains that offer reliable service and unified interior design, while even exchanging information about the habits of their long-standing customers. Other look for hotels with a «soul». Often company regulations determine the choice.

How to find a good hotel, how to make a booking and how are hotels classified in different countries?

Amsterdam. The price usually includes tax and light breakfast (at big expensive hotels you pay (or breakfast separately). The number of stars assigned by the Benelux Hotel Classification system signifies the level of comfort. The stars do not say anything, however, about the hotel’s location or its atmosphere. Many charming small hotels have only a few stars simply because the standard is lower, yet they often occupy beautifully renovated 17th-century house along the canals. Both the modest hotels and their sophisticated counterparts, including Amstel, Seven Bridges and Grand Amsterdam, have a gracious, warm atmosphere not often found at the big chains. The largest number of guests come during the tulip season in April and May, and also in July and August. At these times you should book a few weeks in advance. If you plan to stay at popular hotels located along the canals, advance booking is recommended throughout the year. To reserve a room, a credit card is usually enough, but sometimes a down payment (the price of one night’s stay) by check or mail order is required. Those coming to Amsterdam without having booked a hotel room, can do it at KLM’s airport office (without any additional fee) or at the organization’s offices.

Athens. Both hotels and the popular domatia (rooms or rent) are classified by the EOT Greek Tourist Office. Attractively located, and offering such facilities for businesspeople as conference rooms and telecommunications facilities, A-class and deluxe hotels offer the highest standards. Also quite comfortable and serving hearty breakfast, B-class hotels usually have a restaurant and at least one sports facility, usually a swimming pool or a tennis court. C-, D- and E-class hotels look much more modest.

Budapest. The local hotels of a higher category, especially those equipped with their own steam baths and pools, are fully consistent with European standards. They are run by popular international networks such as Hyatt, Kempinski and Marriott. Your first choice is between those located in Buda and in Pest. Buda’s hills offer you fresh air, cool shade on hot days and peace and quiet, while in the flat plain of Pest you will be just one step away from most tourist attractions. The price always includes breakfast, and a Swedish buffet at hotels with three stars and more. At hotels specializing in hydrotherapy, the entrance fee to swimming pools and sauna is included into the price of the room; any medical treatment is extra. The price includes VAT and climate tax, as Budapest is also a spa. Hotels are classified in five categories here, and boarding houses in two. In five-and four star hotels all rooms have bathrooms, TV sets, telephones (although expensive), radios and refrigerators. Most of them are also equipped with air conditioning, facilities for businesspeople and fitness clubs. There-star hotels run at least two restaurants and their personnel speak at least one foreign language. At two-star hotel, at least two-thirds of the rooms have their own bathrooms and showers. High-standard hotel provide 24-hour service. Tips are always welcome.

Prague. Since the 1989 «Velvet Revolution» Prague has become one of the most popular tourist spots in Europe. Over the past decade, Prague has acquired many new hotels, and the old ones have been modernized. Most of them are located around Wenceslas Square, the city’s central point, and Republiky Square. Accommodations are scarce during the season, beginning around Easter and ending in October. It’s a good idea to obtain written confirmation of your booking during the season. The price includes the tax and service, but not always breakfast.

Warsaw. In recent years, the number of hotels in Warsaw has increased significantly. New luxury hotels have been built and many old ones have been modernized. It’s a good idea to book a few weeks in advance, especially if you plan to go in June and July or between September and November, or during holidays. Warsaw’s typical «businesspeople’s hotels» are the Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, Bristol, Mercure, Holiday Inn, Victoria and Jan III Sobieski. With an original interior, the Secession-style Bristol Hotel is for the very well-off traveler. The prices include VAT and service, and sometimes breakfast.

Hotel industry

Our society is made up of all kinds of organizations, such as companies, government, departments, unions, hospitals, schools and the like. They are essential to our existence, helping to create our standard of living and our quality of life. In all these organizations, there are people carrying out the work of a manager. The role of the manager is particularly significant in such social sphere as the lodging industry.

The lodging industry is the most important element of the social sphere. It plays the leading part in the increase of the public production and accordingly in the upliftingly of living standards.

One can designate the hotel as an enterprise rendering service to the people, which are out of doors. The service of the placing and the nourishment is the leading one at the hotel.

The hotel apartments are the basic element of the placing service. They are intended for the rest, sleeping and work of the guests. In additional the placing service includes the service, which is done by the personal of the hotel. These are receptions and official registration of the guests, cleaning the rooms and others.

The nourishment consists of different processes:

  • process of production (preparation of dishes),

  • trade process (sale of the food products),

  • service process (service of the guests by the waiters at the restaurant, in the rooms).

The additional service includes swimming-pools, conference halls, hair-dresser’s, massage-room and many other things. The hotel is distinguished by the additional service among other hotels. Therefore this service is very important by the forming of the attractiveness of the hotel.

Among the main services of the hotel one can also distinguish the reserving the place, the facilities and the service of the exploitation of the apartment fund.

The service of the nourishment, the placing service and the additional service are formed different at the hotels. And so one can designate several types of the hotels.

The first class hotels are usually situated in the center of the city. The skilled staff ensures the high level of the service. The clients of this kind of the hotel are businessmen, participants of the conferences and other rich men.

The health-resort hotel is situated in the health-resort country. It includes the medical service and the dietary nourishment.

The motel is located near the motor roads and in the suburbs. The clients of the motel are tourists, particularly motor tourers.

The middle class hotels render the broad service. The prizes depend on the situation of the hotel. The leading types of the hotels are the business and health-resort ones, because 50% of the journeys are made with business purpose, and holiday are treatment purpose determines 40% of the journeys. The hotels are classified by the level of the comfort, the capacity of the hotel, the purpose of the hotel, the situation of the hotel, the duration of the work, the providing with the nourishment, the duration of the stay at the hotel, the level of the prices.

Those whose jobs require spending most of the year living out of suitcases are the most attractive clients for big-city hotels, but also the most demanding.

Constantly on the move, these businesspeople expect their hotels to be a home away from home. Some who like consistency go for the international chains that offer reliable service and unified interior design, while even exchanging information about the habits of their long-standing customers. Other look for hotels with a «soul». Often company regulations determine the choice.

How to find a good hotel, how to make a booking and how are hotels classified in different countries?

Amsterdam. The price usually includes tax and light breakfast (at big expensive hotels you pay (or breakfast separately). The number of stars assigned by the Benelux Hotel Classification system signifies the level of comfort. The stars do not say anything, however, about the hotel’s location or its atmosphere. Many charming small hotels have only a few stars simply because the standard is lower, yet they often occupy beautifully renovated 17th-century house along the canals. Both the modest hotels and their sophisticated counterparts, including Amstel, Seven Bridges and Grand Amsterdam, have a gracious, warm atmosphere not often found at the big chains. The largest number of guests come during the tulip season in April and May, and also in July and August. At these times you should book a few weeks in advance. If you plan to stay at popular hotels located along the canals, advance booking is recommended throughout the year. To reserve a room, a credit card is usually enough, but sometimes a down payment (the price of one night’s stay) by check or mail order is required. Those coming to Amsterdam without having booked a hotel room, can do it at KLM’s airport office (without any additional fee) or at the organization’s offices.

Athens. Both hotels and the popular domatia (rooms or rent) are classified by the EOT Greek Tourist Office. Attractively located, and offering such facilities for businesspeople as conference rooms and telecommunications facilities, A-class and deluxe hotels offer the highest standards. Also quite comfortable and serving hearty breakfast, B-class hotels usually have a restaurant and at least one sports facility, usually a swimming pool or a tennis court. C-, D- and E-class hotels look much more modest.

Budapest. The local hotels of a higher category, especially those equipped with their own steam baths and pools, are fully consistent with European standards. They are run by popular international networks such as Hyatt, Kempinski and Marriott. Your first choice is between those located in Buda and in Pest. Buda’s hills offer you fresh air, cool shade on hot days and peace and quiet, while in the flat plain of Pest you will be just one step away from most tourist attractions. The price always includes breakfast, and a Swedish buffet at hotels with three stars and more. At hotels specializing in hydrotherapy, the entrance fee to swimming pools and sauna is included into the price of the room; any medical treatment is extra. The price includes VAT and climate tax, as Budapest is also a spa. Hotels are classified in five categories here, and boarding houses in two. In five-and four star hotels all rooms have bathrooms, TV sets, telephones (although expensive), radios and refrigerators. Most of them are also equipped with air conditioning, facilities for businesspeople and fitness clubs. There-star hotels run at least two restaurants and their personnel speak at least one foreign language. At two-star hotel, at least two-thirds of the rooms have their own bathrooms and showers. High-standard hotel provide 24-hour service. Tips are always welcome.

Prague. Since the 1989 «Velvet Revolution» Prague has become one of the most popular tourist spots in Europe. Over the past decade, Prague has acquired many new hotels, and the old ones have been modernized. Most of them are located around Wenceslas Square, the city’s central point, and Republiky Square. Accommodations are scarce during the season, beginning around Easter and ending in October. It’s a good idea to obtain written confirmation of your booking during the season. The price includes the tax and service, but not always breakfast.

Warsaw. In recent years, the number of hotels in Warsaw has increased significantly. New luxury hotels have been built and many old ones have been modernized. It’s a good idea to book a few weeks in advance, especially if you plan to go in June and July or between September and November, or during holidays. Warsaw’s typical «businesspeople’s hotels» are the Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, Bristol, Mercure, Holiday Inn, Victoria and Jan III Sobieski. With an original interior, the Secession-style Bristol Hotel is for the very well-off traveler. The prices include VAT and service, and sometimes breakfast.
