That's a nice layout, the three icons (feel at home..) look good, and the links at the top look nice.

The footer is a bit plain.

Logo should just be stuck at the top above the nav, maybe with a darker green background, so there's 3 shades.

You couldn't use this as a hotel layout because its not professional enough. There is no logo and everything is too plain. I'd recommend not using icons on all of your designs.

Thanks for the recommendations, i looked at a hotel website, looks the same as mine, its worse, boring and tatty. So mine is professional to the standards of the rest. Im also adding a logo, i posted here for feedback, i got that feedback, i will add it now because the bill has finished :) Thanks

That's looking good, do you think the nav bar is too high?, i'm not sure if it would look better if it was a bit smaller.

Its too.... empty. I also majorly don't like how you've done the icons. It just doesn't look right. Whether its because they're not aligned right or something, or maybe because the font you've used next to them, it still just looks odd. The logo at the top that you added in the second one isn't particularly good because all you've done is used an icon of a key which doesn't really look like a logo.

The links are okay, and the colours could work, but it just needs more adding to it. It's too basic for a hotel website it looks more like a blog of some sort. Try spicing up the content area or something. Maybe that might help in improving it

The Hilton is a hotel. Its just called Hilton Resorts tho

Also, I suggest you correct the spelling such as 'wordwide' on it if your going to look professional.

Nice, that's not themed to a hotel though! It's way too casual for a hotel.. I'd steer clear of a hotel with a site like that.

Yeh.

More images, less icons, better colour scheme and a better structure to the content.
You need to look at, in my opinion, the top hotels in the world to challenge yourself to create something on par with theirs instead of looking for the worst (B&B possibly) website to make you feel better about your design.

Get rid of the icons and it's poor, and the icons aren't yours.

Sorry but it's a feeble attempt that could be knocked up in a minute.

I never said you did say the icons were yours, I said the icons are the only thing worthy in the layout and they're not yours - hence, the layout is piss poor you've just made it not even half decent by adding some free icons.

If I actually carried on with web development I probably could do that in a minute. It's just a shame that I didn't carry on. I know more about web development than you my friend so don't try to demean me ;).
