About Our Hotels

• We stay in wonderful locations which are near the areas we visit and tour.
• Accommodations in all cases are “en suite” that is, each hotel room has its own private bathroom, (specifically, a toilet, sink, and shower and/or tub)
• Breakfasts and dinners are included in the registration costs at or near our hotels
• Some of our hotel rooms may be accessible only by stairs, often no elevator is available
• Most of our hotel rooms do not have air conditioning
• On the Registration Form, indicate the type of room you prefer (single, twin, or double)
• Room selection will be assigned based on the receipt date of your Registration Form
• Although we try to make sure you get the type of room you request, we cannot guarantee it.  The earlier you register, the better your chances.
• In Europe, hotel rooms are usually smaller than the typical hotel room in the U.S. 

About the Sole Occupancy Supplement
The Sole Occupancy Supplement is an additional cost that hotels can charge their guests if only one person stays in a twin or double room. 

• A single room has one twin bed and sleeps one person.
• A twin room has two twin beds and sleeps two people.
• A double room has either one double bed or two twin beds and sleeps two people.

One person staying in a single room (if available) will not usually be charged a supplement.  Single rooms will be assigned “first-come-first served” based on the receipt date of your Registration Form and availability by the hotel.  Indicate your preferred room type on the Registration Form.  If you are a single traveler, check the box if you are willing to share a room.
