We are here with 5 surprising hotel tips that everyone must know before traveling to a new place. Here we go.
1. Try to understand the importance of a star rating for a hotel
Well, most of us are of an idea that a 5-star rated hotel offer luxurious services to its guests. We believe that these 5-star rated luxury hotels are the finest hotels in town. From the day we book our room in a 5-star rated hotel, we start day dreaming of the luxurious services and facilities. Well, we don’t say all of the 5-star rated hotels cheat you but there are some you really provide cheap services for the price paid for it.
Some 5-star rated hotels may attract you by saying that they will offer free Internet facility to you. But have you ever asked about the speed of the Internet and for how much time, this Internet would be free?
2. How much tip should you give to the housekeeping staff?
Well, how much tips you should give to the housekeeping staff is judged by the star-rating. If you are staying at a 5-star rated hotel, you will obviously have to pay the top accordingly.
3. Hotels tend to hide their low-quality food by mentioning fancy names of the food in front of you.
There are hotels that will try to offer you cheap food for the fancy price. They may serve you a food with a title “Diet Food”. This category of food has nothing to do with the fancy prices. You just have to eat boiled vegetables. Anyone can do so at the lowest prices so you should be paying fancy prices for such a low-priced food.
4. Ask for a room away from the crowd.
If you have come on an official trip, you will not accept noise and other disturbances near to your room. So, it is advised to look for a separate room that is away from any kind of obstacles.
5. Do not forget to check your room before you shift your luggage inside it.
Ask housekeeping to change the bedding. In case, they have changed it the previous day only, ask them to change in front of you.
