What he said...
That is basically how I travel even when I am just going somewhere in the states. As in if I go to New York. Hotels HATE you when you get your room for less. Go through the hotel and use the VIP check in service. Completely different experience.
Also get a rental if you don't want to hire a driver. At least that way you have control of your costs.
Don't expect a big room just about anywhere in Europe UNLESS you are willing to pay the penthouse rate for a normal sized room.
