Why stay in a hotel instead of other accommodations?
If you are traveling to the UK, the most convenient and affordable accommodation option would be to stay in a hotel. Not only are there numerous hotel facilities to choose from, there are also very detailed online reviews of each facility to help with your research so that you get exactly what you pay for.
Hotels have several advantages over other accommodation options:
1. Better security: When staying in a hotel, you will feel safer than you would if you used other accommodation options, especially if you are alone. Plus, there is always a 24-hour reception desk for you to call in case you need anything.
2. Housekeeping: It feels nice to leave a messy room and come back to find it clean, fresh and shiny every time as if you have your very own little magical elves that take care of you. Fresh towels and fresh sheets every night are heavens on earth.
3. With so many options, to choose from, it is easy to find one that is cheap and caters to all your needs regarding your travel plans. You can find one close to public transport or places you want to visit.
4. They have concierges who have a wealth of information about the city. They can recommend the best places to visit, where to get great food, among others. It is nice to have a friendly person to talk to when you are alone in a foreign country.
On the other hand, some of the cons include:
1. Limited capacity: If you are traveling with a family of six, you will probably have to book two rooms as most hotel rooms accommodate up to three guests at a time.
2. Hotels can be quite expensive. Although some of them can be affordable, sometimes services are staggered out, meaning you may have to pay for food, parking, and other amenities separately from the cost of the room itself, which can hurt your budget.
What is it like to stay in a hotel?
If you get a nice hotel, your stay can be quite pleasant and stress-free. With all your needs catered for, you can focus your energies on site seeing and taking up the culture of the people, meaning you can reap the most from your vacation.
If you want a stress free travel and accommodation experience, then hotels are the best option for you.
Pro Tips: How to get Cheap Hotels
If you are strapped for cash, the best way to go may be to get a hotel accommodation option to match your budget. Here is how you can get the cheapest hotels in the UK:
1. Book midweek: Staying at a hotel in the middle of the week will be significantly cheaper than doing so on a Friday or over the weekend. This will really help your budget.
2. Look for all-inclusive deals: If you can find a deal that is one blanket payment for everything, it will go a long way in helping you save.
3. Book online: Our site offer discounts when you book your hotel. Take advantage of this.
Many Accommodation Options
There are many accommodation options available for anyone traveling to the United Kingdom. These options can broadly be categorized into four groups: hotels, apartments, B&Bs (bed and breakfast), or hostels. If you cannot seem to make up your mind about what the ideal option for you is, this article will shed some light on what each of these choices entails. This way, you will hopefully have an easier time reaching a decision.
So what exactly does each option have to offer?
1. Hotels
A hotel is perfect for shorter-term stays. They offer affordable meals, lodging, and other services to their guests. Generally, hotel rooms are numbered, and they may vary from smaller rooms to larger, better quality suites, all with different price tags.
2. B&Bs
A bed and breakfast will typically offer overnight accommodation and a breakfast as a package service. B&Bs are typically small lodging establishments, rarely having more than 12 rooms.
3. Apartments
Renting an apartment is a great alternative accommodation method if you want a larger space, if you will be staying at one place for a long time, and if are willing to spend a little more cash. The downside is that apartments are not as cheap as hotels. Also, picking the wrong apartment can completely ruin your vacation so do your research really well before making up your mind.
4. Hostels
Hostels are budget oriented establishments that provide accommodation and cheap food. They tend to cater to specific groups of people, such as students or travelers. Typical hostels will usually have shared amenities, such as bunk beds, shared bathrooms, shared kitchen facilities, among others. Some of them offer private room facilities at a fee.
Other options include holiday homes to rent, cottages and lodges.
