Book a hotel before
traveling
Before embarking on their adventure, many travelers decide
to book their hotels, in this way they are guaranteed that once they arrive at
their travel destination they already know where they are going to sleep. From
personal experience, we discovered that currently booking the hotel before
traveling is the best. Since if you travel without having booked your hotel
beforehand, the situation can be overwhelming, since what you find is not
always the best.
So the first advice we give you before traveling is to book
a hotel, and a good option is to do it with LBN Hotels. Another big question is
how long do I book my hotel? Well, the best time to reserve the hotel is to do
it with a maximum of 2 months and a minimum of 1 month. Since that is when the
prices are most competitive.
In what part of the
city do I book my hotel?
Every city has several different areas where you can book
accommodation. When we look for the hotel where we are going to stay we always
look for the most central areas. And we do this for two reasons, the first is
because the city center is where the main tourist attractions are usually found. And the second reason is that in the center of cities
there are usually restaurants and shops to walk around.
Almost never, if not to say, never would we choose a hotel
that was located on the outskirts or near the airport or bus or train stations
far from the center. Since it is true that we would be close to transport, but
as a general rule these hotels are far from the most important tourist spots
and the historic center.
The price of the
hotel
Another of the most important points to book the hotel is
the price. First, we get information on blogs or websites that compare prices
to see what the average price of accommodation in our destination is. For all
trips, we have an average budget for accommodation expenses and we begin to
look for the hotel based on that average budget that we have chosen previously.
The budget that we choose for the accommodation we always
try not to be a very low or high budget. For example, if the cheapest hotels in
a city are worth 30 euros, we will put an average budget from 50 euros. In this
way we make sure to find hotels with higher quality and that adapt to what we
are looking for.
Opinions
One of the most determining factors when choosing a hotel is
knowing what others think. The hotel may have a perfect location, a reasonable
price, and all the services we were looking for. But if you don’t have opinions
or if your score is low, we will most likely end up discarding it. Why are
opinions so important? The opinions allow you to know the “reality” of the
hotel through the experience of other travelers. It is true that you do not
have to be so rigorous, but they do allow you to orient yourself a little about
what are the strengths and weaknesses of the accommodations.
For example, if you travel for work and it is for you it is
very necessary to have Wi-Fi in the room. In the opinions and in the scores
that are given to the hotel in the Wi-Fi section, you will be able to know if
the hotel truly offers this quality service or not.
Room features or
services
We continue with the tips for booking a hotel and now it’s
time to talk about the services. We tend to be pretty basic when choosing a
hotel room. The first thing we choose is a double room with a double bed. It is
very important to us that the room has Wi-Fi . In hot destinations we always
look for rooms that have air conditioning and / or a fan. And if we are going
to be in the room for more than two days, as a general rule we look for them to
have a private bathroom inside the room.
Other important room characteristics that we usually keep in
mind when booking is that they are spacious rooms that have a desk and chair,
to be able to work. That they always have a window where the outside light
enters. That it has a television, a wardrobe and if it may be that the price
includes breakfast.
These are our tips for booking a hotel. It is important that
you know that these are general tips that depending on the destination if it is
a city, a town, etc., they may vary a bit. In the same way, it is not the same
to travel and book a hotel in a city of 1 or 2 million inhabitants like Morroco
or Pakistan. Than to book a hotel in much bigger cities like Makah or London
City. What do you take into account when booking a hotel? If you have
questions, do not hesitate to ask them, we will be happy to help you.
