Considering spending a few days at a hotel with the family for Spring Break? Want a place that will be enjoyable for both your wife and you, but also has wonderful possibilities for the kids?
We’ve put up a list of 4 things to take into consideration when making your reservation in order to help you make sure your stay is as cozy, affordable, and welcome as possible.
Location
City’s Core
One of the most crucial considerations when choosing a hotel is location. In order to move around freely and quickly while visiting a crowded city, narrow down your search to hotels that are strategically located. Many sights & attractions will be close to your hotel or only a short taxi ride away.
Country Getaway
Make sure the hotel you choose is close to a few attractions, such as a lake with boat rentals, a farm where the kids can interact with the animals and possibly even bottle-feed a calf or lamb, & an old castle that is just begging to be explored. Children who are bored are the last thing you need.
Categories And Costs
Price is typically correlated with a hotel’s star rating and provides a very excellent idea of the level of service and quality to anticipate. Generally speaking, the more stars a hotel has, the more expensive it is. Keep an eye out for limited-time deals, discounted rates, and savings that include breakfast or that are part of an all-inclusive, half-board, or full-board package.
Spend some time browsing a hotel’s website to determine for yourself what services, amenities, and rooms they provide. See what activities are offered for children in the restaurant, bar, swimming, spa, live entertainment, etc.
Booking Online
Booking a hotel room online is convenient and practical, but you should pick a reliable site or, better yet, the hotel’s own website. It is significantly more affordable to make a reservation straight through the hotel’s website (hotel booking sites charge a fee). Book & pay for your breakfasts while you’re there because it’s typically less expensive to do so than to pay when you arrive. Since online reservations are immediate, you won’t miss out on any special deals.
Room Types And Locations
The majority of hotels provide cozy family rooms where the kids can sleep on single and sofa beds. Additionally, you might want to pick a room with windows that look out onto a nice vista or a charming courtyard.
The Thames Riviera in Maidenhead, Berkshire, is one hotel that satisfies all the aforementioned requirements. You can’t go wrong with the reasonable prices, delicious meal options, themed music nights in the Blue River Café, & family-friendly rooms.
