Worth staying in a classy hotel?
Usually when I travel, I would stay in a 2 to 3 star hotel depending on the
location. I guess for me what is important is really accessibility to where I need to go (near public transport zone), a safe environment and a no-nonsense place. Basic comfort is important which includes clean sheets, air-conditioning and a personal shower. I guess it depends on the situation. If you are travelling to meet a business client then a business class hotel might be a good place to be in or if it is your honeymoon and you want it to be a time to remember. Some travel via tour packages and they do not really have much choice of where to stay. Edwin "J Asking" wrote in message om...

Normally I choose 3 star!! Except in Bangkok, where I keep going back to the
Phatumwan Princess - 4 star - at a 3 star price; and so well positioned!!! "J Asking" wrote in message om...

I know one person who would book a 5* hotel at the end of trips, just so she enjoys some luxury before heading home. |

Personally I think hostels are a bit scary as most often you have to share the room aswell as the bathroom but is is a great experience if you like that kind of thing & you can meet lots of people(watch your belongings!) I agree with the other guys tho, air-con is pretty much a must over there and private bathroom is always nice. I do always have a week of luxury if I can afford it tho. A 5* hotel can be the same price as a crappy english b&b so why not for a while! "J Asking" wrote in message om...

Absolutely agree. It is well worth some extra $$'s to be able to get at good shower, clean bed, good space to unwind after a long day out in the hot humid city (or whatever). I have had my share of lousy lodging while travelling round europe by train in the late 70's early 80's. If you can afford it the extra $$'s spent is forgotten the day after coming home anyway. knut |
