The hotel is located very close to the city centre and the airport, offering an ideal location for the business or leisure travelers who want to discover the city. Here what lastminute.com website states: "Top secret hotels What's the big secret? Shhh, these rates are so low that our hotel partners don't want to put their names to them. So we can bring you these exclusive deals, we don't reveal the name of the hotel until you've booked. What discount am I getting? Any discount shown refers to the saving you will get by booking a Top Secret hotel compared to booking the same hotel in the usual way on lastminute.com. When do I find out where I'm staying? Don't worry, as soon as the booking has been made we will send you an email confirming all of your booking details including the name and address of the hotel you have reserved. Am I compromising on quality? Absolutely not. The room types on offer are no different to any of the others we sell on lastminute.com. Guests can expect the same great service as with any of our other hotel bookings. Cancellation policy Please check the hotel details." ********************* Call them 0871 222 5969 to get more info. Now,, if you going to luxembug, you should be able to get a good deal for any hotel especially the so-called top hotel will only reveal the name after your book. Currently, the rate over the "Top Secret Hotel" start @ £68.33, which is about 99 dollars. So, you can use other websites that can give you the name and the location so you don't have to be guessing and be surprised. Try http://mazandu.com/Travel.aspx Good luck!

Are belgium/austria/switzerland/luxembourg good places to work/retire in

Are belgium/austria/switzerland/luxembourg good places to work/retire in?
(Please read this whole thing. I already asked this question before, but now i have more details)Im currently a resident in Florida, and im planning to get at least a bachelors in applied mathematics. I saw a similar question a few minutes ago, and there was an answer that said that you can go and work in a country that is in the EU if you have citizenship in another country that is also in the EU. Well i do, so would be better to build my career in US or Europe?I know those countries are really nice, so should i work here and then retire there, or would it be ok if i moved there to wrok after i get my diploma?

I think Luxemburg is the best (less taxes)

Just follow your hearth. Nobody can predict how the world will look like in 10 years. If you think you will make a good career US is the best option. You have to take in account too the language barrier in the beginning. All the countrys you mentioned are Dutch, french or German speaking. Switzerland is even not a member of European Union, so the rule of the membership is not valid there. Europe is more social and the cultural Facilities are wider. The pesion is much higher in europe (but who knows what it will be in 10 years...) comparing a Belgian/french company with a US-company based in belgium: a european company is more hierarchical structured. I know nobody who went live and work in Luxembourg because of tax reasons because the money you saved that way, you will have to spend on living.

I can't speak for Istanbul, so I won't say either is a better option (especially since I have heard that Istanbul is a really neat city), but I've been to Luxembourg and I absolutely loved it. The city has caves under it that you can tour and wander around in (took about 2 hours to get through when I went there) and the architecture is just beautiful. There is also a lot of good shopping, if that is something you care about, and the mix of French and German culture is really fun, as well, and makes for great food selection. It's also hard to beat the location because the country is so small. It's just a quick trip to France, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. Austria, Denmark, and Italy aren't too far either. Plenty of options for weekend trips should you get the chance. Either way you choose, you'll get to experience fantastic cultures, lots of history, good food, and beautiful surroundings. I honestly don't think you can go wrong, no matter which city you decide on.

Dear Sophia: I've lived in BOTH! I liked Turkey~ but I would choose *LUX., as the Superior Choice! (Especially since you are female.) Secular Muslim Countries should be avoided, by you. Take my advice. You will be happy you did!

Luxembourg. It has a considerably higher GDP and quality of life than Istanbul, and as one of the others said, since Turkey is a mostly Islamic country, it might be interesting living and working there as a female. If you have the opportunity to work in Luxembourg I would certainly take it.
