• Answer:

  Well, Conley has give very useful information. In my opinion, buy individual ticket can be more effective even cheaper option rather than you book the eurail pass. probably 10 percent of railpass travelers would have traveled more cheaply by buying tickets as they went. While point-to-point tickets are sold by travel agents in the United States, you can keep your options open by buying tickets in Europe as you need them. Train tickets are sold at many travel agencies in Europe, at staffed ticket windows and automated machines in stations, and on some countries' national rail websites. In person, bridge any communication gap by writing out your plan: destination city, date, time (if you want a reservation), how many people, first or second class. but if you are interesting to buy railpass maybe this website might be useful http://www.ricksteves.com/rail/howrailworks.htm For recommendation of hotel, beside venere.com you can try expedia.com, they have list of hotel on various city, beside that taking review from http://www.tripadvisor.com/ is good idea to get hotel review and advice.
