Benefiting From Extended Stay Hotels

Let's face it.  Most hotel rooms are not fit for a long stay.  Being confined to such limited space for any extended period of time could be very uncomfortable.  So what do you do when a trip requires that  you stay for several weeks or more?

Good news!  You may be surprised to learn that there is a hotel chain that actually caters to those "extended stay" travelers.  The hotel chain is conveniently called  Extended Stay Hotels.  The great feature about these hotels is that the rooms that are larger than most "regular"  hotel rooms.

have a dinette which allows guests  to fix small meals.  This can save you money and convenience, so you may not always want to eat out.  Extended stay hotels are more like a real "home away from home"  than a hotel room.  And is that not what we would all like if we have to be away for an extended period? Most of the are conveniently located close to the center of commerce for that particular city, which is an added benefit.  You may not even need to rent a car.

Secrets About Booking Extended Stay Hotels

Most Extended Stay Hotels are easy to find.  If you are  traveling from one job to another and staying in an Extended Stay Hotel, go to the front desk and have a room reserved in the new city.  When you finally get to the new city, your room will be waiting for you.  Checking in is easy and you  will be asleep fast.  Another great aspect of this hotel chain is that the walls seem thicker than other hotel rooms.  The level of noise is much less and it makes for quick relaxing at the end of a hectic day.

If you need  to stay longer for any reason, just let the desk know and it is done.  What about if you are traveling with your family?  Extended Stay Hotels is an excellent choice in this case too.  There are extra beds and space to do whatever is needed for the kids.  Next time you are traveling, why not give Extended Stay Hotels a try and see how well they your needs.  They might not be for everyone, but for a lot of people it can make their extended stay much more enjoyable.  It may be the closest thing to feeling at "home away from home" during your trip!

The longest I've ever stayed in a regular hotel is one month - that hotel had a kettle, fridge, and microwave though.  What extra facilities do you get in an extended stay hotel?  Is it just a hob, or do you even get a tabletop oven? I think the convenience of not eating out every night would be great, but I haven't encountered many extended stay hotels when I've been shopping around.  Especially not in Europe :(

I have stayed in these and they are great even when you are staying for only a week. As you have far more amenities than a normal hotel room would offer. You have the same luxury of pools and parking, but you have the added benefit of a kitchenette and living room style area, so that you can do more than just sleep in your room. For business people it will give you more room to work. For families they are good because you can save money on meals while traveling.

This sounds like a great independant option. I do love the fact that you have your own cooking fascilities which is fabulous as my daughter has specific nutritional requirements. For my partner and I it is always a thought of where the hotel is located and if the rooms are sound proof. Mainly as we both sleep reasonably light and not only that when we go on holiday we like total self indulgence without noise polution. So this type of accomadation would really appeal to us.

I just looked up some extended stay hotels, and it looks like they may be suitable for one of my fortcoming trips.  I will be spending two weeks in Germany - the hotels do weekly rates, that are quite reasonable, and some of them appear to have better kitchens than I do at home! Considering I am a fussy eater, and my husband is also hard to please, I have a feeling we will be staying at one of those, eating in, and really making the place home!
