I had to travel on business and go to the United Kingdom.  The administrative assistant at my company let me see the website she was looking at to look for hotels in York.  There were several hotels that would be approved by the company for me to stay at so she let me pick.  I found a great place and the company even let me extend my trip by couple of days so that I could spend some personal time visiting all of the sites.  As long as I paid for the extra days in the hotel and with the rental car they had no problem with it and I was not sure when I would be able to afford my own trip to Europe so I jumped on the chance.
