HOW YOU CAN BE A QUEEN OR KING FOR A NIGHT

Reviewed by Madelyn Miller

Who hasn’t dreamed of living the pampered life of a king or queen?

 DREAM SLEEPS: CASTLE & PALACE HOTELS OF EUROPE

(Carousel Press, $17.95), provides the information you need to turn your daydream into reality.  Want to spend the night in Mary Queen of Scot’s bedchamber?  No problem.  Or maybe you’d like to call England’s fabulous Hampton Court Palace home.  That can be arranged as well.  You can even feast in a stone-vaulted great hall once ruled by emperors and kings.

The unique hotels described in DREAM SLEEPS are much more than lodgings.  Restored and converted survivors of an often brutal past, they are now living museums.  Descriptions include the intriguing history of each, as well as a description of facilities and services available to present day guests.

Information on activities and excursions in the area, and facilities for children and disabled persons, are also noted, and E-mail and website addresses are listed when available.

DREAM SLEEPS describes 132 castle and palace hotels in ten countries--Austria, England, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Scotland, and Wales.  Each was personally inspected, and locator maps help you find those that fit easily into your European itinerary. 

Author Pamela L. Barrus has traveled solo in over 150 countries.  She lives in Laguna Beach, California. And her family treats her like a queen.
