Traveling and hotels are a huge part of any vacation or business trip. From a luxury resort in the mountains to an inexpensive motel along the highway, hotel options are plentiful and offer convenience to travelers.
Whether you’re a backpacker on a budget, having an Eat, Pray, Love experience in Southeast Asia or splurge on a dream vacation in Paris, a hotel offers comfort, convenience and amenities for a great price. Compared to Airbnb’s or hostels, hotels have more staff members available to help with travel-related questions and concerns. They’re also located near transportation hubs, shopping and dining areas making them a great choice for travelers who want to see and experience the best of the city or region they’re visiting.
Another benefit of hotels is that they can provide a home-away-from-home for business travelers. Many hotels have meeting spaces, conference rooms and even fitness centers for their business guests. They can also offer concierge services and travel desks to help travelers book activities or tours while they’re in town.
Another option for traveling is camping. While it’s not a luxury experience, camping offers a more natural and rugged way to sleep. Campers can pitch tents in a wide variety of locations including popular national parks and conservation areas. Some even offer additional amenities for an extra fee. A similar accommodation option is a bed and breakfast or B&B, which typically refers to staying in a converted family home.
