Most Guests Don't Know This: How To Make The Most Of Your Hotel Stay

Most people don’t fully maximize their hotel stay. There are a lot of reasons for this, but the most common one is that many guests don’t know. It is enough for them that they can enjoy a few nights (or perhaps just a weekend) in a place other than their home. However, hoteliers are encouraging their guests to maximize their stay with some of these tips.

Book on your birthday: Most hotel chains provide a complimentary champagne or even just a bouquet of flowers when they know it’s their guest’s birthday. Do note that they also check if the guest is telling the truth. This is done through a simple ID verification. However, booking during this time will add an extra oomph to the guest’s stay.

Use the hotel spa: Guests always pass by the spa without trying out its services. This is a shame since many hotels take the time to really indulge their guests with exquisite spa services. Guests can ask the concierge if room service is available. Even for hotels that do not have an in-house spa, guests can relax and unwind with a nice warm bath and cucumber slices over the eyes as they lounge in their fluffy bathrobes.

Sample the hotel bar: Every hotel comes with their own bar. The good ones even hire the best bartenders to make unique drinks. Guests should try asking their local bartender for the house special. Guests are often surprised how these concoctions are better than what they can sample outside.

Ask for a tour: Guests rarely ask for this but is actually part of every hotel’s services. It is not enough that guests can browse the website, hotels encourage their guests to ask for a guided tour. This way, they can fully see all the amenities and features.

Another great way to maximize one’s stay is to get a really good night’s sleep. Hotel beds are made for comfort and relaxation. This is why more people are choosing hotels as their mini-vacation destination.
