Frozen Water in the Car

Last night we stayed at Holiday Inn Express in Troisdorf somewhere between Cologne and Bonn. The Holiday inn Express has become our favourite hotel chain when travelling in Germany. Relatively cheap and easily accessible, it caters for traveller who wants a quick getaway to the motorway.

It is a fresh and new brand, only ten years old now, with over 15 hotels across Germany and expanding. The price ranges from 50 to 100 euros per night for this 3 to 4 star rating hotel. This one was the cheapest, with breakfast inclusive costing only 51 euros!

The aternatives are Mercure and Ibis, but these more established chains have smaller rooms and are mostly a bit run-down.

Last night was very cold. When we boarded our car this morning, we found this bottle of water was completely frozen.
