Our process of upgrading and adding regional travel guides continues this week with enhancements added to one of our existing sites, TheRealVirginiaBeach.com, and the addition of a new site, TheRealSanDiego.com. Both sites feature a complete selection of hotels near hundreds of landmarks, including churches, hospitals, shopping centers, schools and other useful categories.
Our guide to hotels in Virginia Beach now includes information for travelers to the neighboring city of Norfolk, Virginia. The two cities (as big as counties in other places) share a long border and you’ll often find the most convenient hotel is in one city while your destination is in the other. When you think of Virginia Beach you probably think of the oceanfront “resort strip”, but that’s just a small part of the city. TheRealVirginiaBeach includes information about all of the hotels on the beach, but we also cover all the non-resort hotels in other parts of the city. You can quickly find the best hotels near Virginia Beach landmarks like the Virginia Marine Science Museum, schools like Regent University, Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital and hundreds of other buildings and places.
While there is no distance between the cities (they share a border), downtown Norfolk is on the banks of the Elizabeth River about 20 miles west of the Virginia Beach oceanfront. TheRealVirginiaBeach now includes handy guides to the closest hotels for Norfolk landmarks such as the Chrysler Museum of Art, the Virginia Zoological Park (aka the “Norfolk Zoo”), Harbor Park Stadium (home of the Norfolk Tides minor league baseball team) and many more.
The region covered by the newest addition to our family of regional hotel guides is San Diego. TheRealSanDiego includes lists of nearby hotels for hundreds of places throughout San Diego County. For instance, if you’re looking for hotels near San Diego’s Balboa Park, we provide a text list and a map of potential places to stay. Click on the name of a listed hotel – or on the hotel’s marker on the map – and you’ll be taken to the hotel’s page where you can find information about the hotel’s amenities and book your stay at several popular online sites.
