The Travel Critic

Planning a trip is easy. Deciding where to stay, where to eat and what is actually worth doing once you get there is considerably harder. That’s where The Travel Critic comes in. Our travel guides bring together the hotels, restaurants, bars and experiences we’ve actually tried, along with honest opinions about what’s worth your time and what’s probably best avoided. Whether you’re planning a weekend in Barcelona, a few days in Abu Dhabi, exploring Bristol or heading somewhere further afield, our guides are designed to cut through the endless lists and tell you what you really need to know — from the places worth booking months in advance to the ones that are better left to somebody else. Because anyone can tell you where to go. We’d rather tell you where we’d go.
