Well, I’m on my way home after six and a half weeks in the US and I’m spending a couple of days in San Francisco before jumping on the plane late tomorrow evening for about 17 hours of travel to get back to Melbourne.

In San Francisco I’m staying at the Hilton San Francisco on O’Farrell Street, just a couple of blocks from Union Square, Powell Street (where you can jump on a Cable Car) and Market Street.

Brisbane Hilton, Brisbane, Australia

Now, this is a nice hotel. Well appointed, good location, good sized and clean rooms and Internet access that worked… everything that one needs for a week away from home for work.

The Brisbane Hilton is in the centre of Brisbane CBD and it was only a 10 minute walk to where I had to work down by the river.

InterContinental, Wellington, New Zealand

by gavin, posted in Hotels, Travel

Had to head off over the pond to Wellington at the southern tip of New Zealand’s north island for a couple of days of work.

Stayed at the InterContinental on Grey Street. This is a great location, adjacent to wharf area that’s been done up as a recreational and dining area. It also a short walk, i.e. minutes, to the main shopping and business areas and probably a 15 minute walk to Cuba Street for food and nightlife.
