Frequently Asked Questions

The World of 2201 is the family of channels run by Anatole of Anatole2201. Currently Anatole2201| Extras, Anatole1022, and 2201 Productions are the only channels in the family, each catering to one of Anatole's interests. 

I review hotels for a few reasons. Firstly a video review and tour of a hotel can help guests decide on their hotel if they need one. Text reviews can certainly inform people, but many guests also like a video of a guest's firsthand experience of the hotel. My reviews help guests choose; a video can say much more than a text review. My reviews also allow guests who may already have a reservation or even current guests to know the layout of the hotel better or to help them find something they need. Ultimately, video reviews can be a valuable asset to many hotels, and I work to provide such assets to hotels. 

No. I do not receive commissions from bookings, and I always recommend booking directly with the hotel rather than through a third party. Anatole2201 is a hotel reviewing concept, not a hotel reservation platform. Any links to hotels are the direct booking links for the hotel through their official site. 

Absolutely! While I cannot guarantee anything, I would be more than happy to conduct a tour of any property if it's feasible. However, please note that my reviews are unbiased, and I do not accept payment to alter my opinions for any reason. However, reducing rates and providing upgrades is acceptable and is not counted as bias; it will be disclosed to viewers, however. If you're interested, please get in touch with me by sending a contact form using the "I need to send you a message" option. Please send your name, property's name, address, a link to your current website, any other sites worth seeing, and proof of employment. 

I review all hotels, from mid-range to luxury, throughout Texas and beyond. I have stayed with most chain and independent brands and have experience in touring these places to help guests make an informed choice. My current list of cities includes Dallas, Plano, Allen, Coppell, Frisco, Richardson, San Antonio, Corpus Christi, Austin, Houston, Galveston, and other destinations such as Washington, D.C., as well as Georgia, Illinois, and Oklahoma. The list is constantly growing! 

Anatole2201 does not accept direct payment for reviews. All opinions shared on a video are my own opinion and are not altered by or due to monetary means. In the event that I am provided an upgrade, discount, or any additional service that may be due in part or in full due to my intention to review the hotel, this information must be disclosed in the video and description to ensure the viewer can make an informed decision about the hotel. Hotels are not made aware of the review before or during the production of the video. In the event that the hotel does know, this will be disclosed, and viewers will be encouraged to factor this in when considering the hotel.
