When it comes to travel there is no better feeling than getting back to your hotel after a long day of exploring and relaxing with a glass of wine. There’s something about staying in a luxurious or boutique hotel that makes travelling feel that little bit more rewarding. Whether you travel for work or it’s a once-a-year treat, the novelty never seems to wear off. With that in mind, here are 10 of the best things about having the opportunity to stay in a luxury or boutique hotel:
The Quality Of The Products They Use
Although you can buy as many expensive products as you want, having them to use in hotels is an added bonus of staying somewhere that has a little more of a steeper pricetag. Usually, you will find the the towels, robes, bedsheets and even the bathroom products are from well-known or reputable brands. If it’s not a brand you know, it will be locally sourced from a company that has been tried, tested and loved by the owner of the hotel. Whilst you may receive a similar service in a hotel that isn’t considered luxury, it definitely won’t be of the same quality.
The Luxury Of Sleeping In A Different (Much Comfier) Bed
Luxury and boutique hotels can always guarantee one thing - an incredibly comfy bed! One of the best things about paying more for a hotel is that you know you’re going to be getting a really good nights’ sleep. Not only will the hotel ensure you have a super comfy mattress to sleep on, but they will make sure all of the bedding and pillows are of high-quality. You’ll sleep so well you’ll be dying to recreate your hotel bed at home. For tips and tricks when it comes to recreating your hotel bed at home, you can visit this site here.
A Sense Of Adventure When You Wake Up
When you stay in any hotel you will always have the same feeling when you wake up. Whether you’re exploring a new country or visiting a place you have always loved, you will wake up feeling an overwhelming sense of adventure. After an incredible night sleep, you can go and explore the world outside your hotel door.
Getting A Little Bit Of Peace And Quiet
If you are travelling to get away from the hustle and bustle of your everyday life, a luxury or boutique hotel could bring you the peace and quiet you need. If it’s something you have booked to allow yourself the time to relax, you may want to consider finding a spa break that will allow you to book as a package. Not only does this mean you’ll have a luxurious room to stay it, but it also means you’ll have full use of the hotel’s spa facilities. If you want to have the ultimate relaxing experience, why not book yourself a treatment too? For a guide to booking a spa break, you can visit this guide here.
Ordering Room Service
Although you may want to try the local cuisine in the country or city you’re visiting, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with ordering room service to your room once or twice. Whether you want breakfast in bed or a midnight snack after a long day, you can order food to enjoy from the comfort of your own room. Whilst there may be a room charge added to your bill, it’s definitely worth it for the relaxing experience.
Technically, You Don’t Have To Clean Up
Although you should be aiming to keep your room as tidy as you can out of respect, you don’t have to do any of the difficult cleaning jobs when you stay in a hotel. Whether it’s cleaning the bathroom or sweeping the floors, it’s the hotel’s job to ensure your room is as tidy as it can be. If you don’t want to receive maid service every day, there are lots of different ways for you to opt out. For a guide to opting out of maid service in a hotel, you can visit this site here.
You Receive Fresh Towels Every Day
When the hotel maid’s visit your room each morning, they will give you clean towels, providing you have left your old ones on the floor. Whilst they do try to be as environmentally friendly as they can when it comes to the number of washes they do, you can choose to have clean towels as often as you want. Ideal for those that have a long stay ahead of them, fresh towels every day is something you’d never experience at home.

You Can Still Feel At Home In Hotel
Another great thing about staying in a hotel is that if you’re booking something that is a little more luxurious, you know you’re going to feel at home. They will do their best to make you feel as though you’re staying in a home away from home, even if it is just for one night.
You Can Stay In Some Incredible Locations
When it comes to staying in a luxurious or boutique hotel, you will find that they have some of the best locations possible. As they usually have more of an upmarket price tag, often they are located within the centre of a destination. If you’re looking for a quiet retreat instead, some of the most luxurious hotels in the world are located in some of the most idyllic countryside towns.
Hotels Are One Of The Safest Places To Stay
If you’re worried about your safety when travelling then it’s important to know that hotels are one of the safest types of accommodation you can book. Although you can’t guarantee something bad isn’t going to happen, there are lots of laws regulations in place to help reassure you should you encounter any issues at a hotel.
