Hotel Tips & Tricks: How To Get The Most Out Of Your Hotel Stay
Even if you have booked a fantastic 5-star hotel, there are always a few tried-and-true hotel room tips and tactics that may elevate your stay to the next level.
Whether you are traveling for work or enjoyment, there are some very smart travel hacks out there that will ensure you never have to pack dirty shoes with perfectly white clothing or run out of exfoliants.
Inquire about backup options:
Are you flying in? Ask your hotel ahead of time whether they have a free pick-up service or discounted airport transfers. This is a huge hotel trick for island holidays, as you may save pricey taxi fares just by asking.
Not all bedrooms, especially corner ones, are created equal:
It does not matter how many times you are assured that all the rooms are the same. It is worth respectfully asking for an upgrade or, if that is not possible, requesting a corner room. They are virtually usually larger, and they frequently feature many aspect windows.
You have accessibility to (a LOT) of things:
Have you forgotten your hairdryer? Do you require an iron? These are common hotel amenities, but did you know that umbrellas, hair straighteners, yoga mats, converters, and phone chargers are frequently available? Don’t allow that one forgotten thing to ruin your vacation; check with the front desk to see if they have what you require.
Check out early and relax near the pool:
Many hotels feature spas and pools, but one of the best-kept hotel secrets is that you may use them long after you have checked out. If you have a late flight and an early check-out, this is an excellent way to pass the time. Notify the hotel personnel, place your luggage behind the desk, and proceed to the nearest sunbed.
Look at these deals:
One of our favorite hotel hacks is that customers may frequently take advantage of the hotel’s luxurious amenities at a significant cost. If your hotel offers a spa, check out the specials; you might be able to get a fantastic treatment like a massage or a facial at a huge discount.
Inquire with the concierge:
One of the finest aspects of staying in a hotel is the concierge service. Forget about hotel hacks; this is a hack for your vacation. Request suggestions, book tours via them, purchase expensive theatre tickets or make restaurant reservations through them. We encourage you to use the concierge service!
Check to see if your hotel will match the price:
When browsing for hotels, do you notice a pricing difference? Call the hotel you want to stay at and tell them you want to book with them, but that [insert competing hotel] has a better deal; would they price match? You’d be shocked how often this works if you ask respectfully.
