Albany is really a beautiful place and has tons of parks. I visited Albany in May, my friend Rita and I went to Albany to spend our time during the Memorial day holiday. Before we left, we made reservations for our hotel on-line, click here, I’ve always reserved hotel room online, because I can check out all the different hotel rates, accommodations and amenities. Since Albany is the capital of New York, we managed to find a hotel that we could afford and on that was centrally located.

Our first day in Albany, we visited Washington Park and really enjoyed ourselves very much, it’s a very beautiful and cool place. Our hotel also provided us with a number of things to do. We checked out a restaurant they recommended and apparently it was a famous restaurant and bar. They had great food and great drinks; we sampled many different drinks. The next day, after sleeping off our hang-overs, we went to the Tulip Festival. There was mostly food there, which seemed to be one of the main attraction besides music, we thought it be all about Tulips. We stayed for the whole day, listening to great performances. The area had long trails for hiking, jogging, biking or walking.

We made it back to our hotel loaded with items we bought at the festival. We didn’t know how we get all of the stuff we bought into our luggage. The hotel had a great suggestion for us, they told us to mail the stuff back to our home. They helped us with getting the items bundled up enough to mail and they told us we could leave our package with them and they will hand it to the postal worker. They even provided the printed out stamp, which them charged to our room. What a wonderful staff! I’m going to have to remember this hotel site where I booked our room, I’ve never run into better service.
