Seven Things to Check When Booking a Hotel
1. Book a Family-Friendly Hotel
Not all hotels are family-friendly. Many hotels in various locations do not allow pets to stay. Always choose a ‘family-friendly’ hotel. Check this during booking.
2. Check Hotel Reviews
If you like a hotel, then check it’s name on Google before confirming the booking. You’ll find hotel reviews on Google. Read user reviews before making a booking decision. 3. Carefully Read the Hotel’s Policy
Policies may differ for different hotels. There might also be other changes. Therefore, carefully read the policy before booking. If anything seems questionable or uncomfortable, explore other options. It’s best to avoid hotels with unclear policies.
4. Choose Hotels in Safe Locations
Check the hotel’s location before booking. Use Google to check the surrounding area. Book only if the hotel is in a crowded and safe area. Avoid hotels in secluded areas or far from the city.
5. Read About the Hotel’s Security Measures
Don’t compromise on security. Check if the hotel has CCTV cameras, security guards, etc. 6. Room Type and Cancellation Policy
Check if the room is single, double, deluxe, family or suitable? See Check-in/check-out timings and cancellation policy as well.
7. Book Through Trusted Websites or Apps
While some smaller hotels or social media groups may offer rooms, prioritize safety and book through trusted websites or apps.
