Hotel Styles - There's A World Of Choice

By Harvey McEwan

Today's leisure and tourism industry means there's a hotel and holiday to suit everyone. We take a look at some of the most popular styles of hotels on the market today.
Thinking of taking a trip abroad? Finding accommodation to suit your personal taste could be easier than you ever imagined. Whether you're staying in a metropolitan city, bustling town or sleepy suburb, there's always going to be something to suit everyone. So what's out there?
Popular in Japan as well as other cities around the world, capsule hotels offer a unique and memorable stay as well as convenience for those on a budget. Boasting large numbers of rooms, or "capsules", guests sleep in a modular plastic space measuring 2m by 1m by 1.25m. Perfect for those looking for accommodation in a hurry, or travellers happy to scrimp on space to save money, capsule hotels are growing in popularity. With the recession hitting Japan hard, some residents have even taken to renting out capsules per month instead of paying rent in regular apartments. Items like towels, pillows and luggage storage space come as optional extras for those looking to splash out.
For those who are keen on a little more space, a luxury hotel needn't be a costly option. Located in the heart of the city as well as rural settings, luxury hotels come in all shapes and sizes. Perfect for families with young children, luxury hotels offer service that are a cut above; with kids clubs, activity groups and sports classes available to keep little 'uns and big ones entertained. For parents looking to indulge in some well earned 'me' time, there's also the chance to put your feet up in a luxury spa or spend an afternoon on a championship golf course which are all commonplace at these kinds of hotels.
With capsule and luxury hotels ticking all the boxes for those on a budget or with plenty to spend, what's left for those looking for a totally unique lifestyle experience that's among the best in the world? If this is the kind of hotel stay you're after then look no further than boutique hotels. Often ranked among the world's classiest and most sumptuous buildings, boutique hotels offer guests an unparalleled stay in unique bedrooms by award-winning designers.
Whether you're looking for an unforgettable stay in San Francisco, new wave living in New York or an Edinburgh boutique hotel, accommodation of this kind is well and truly worth savouring.
Don't just plump for a big name brand or recognisable logo the next time you go to book accommodation...a good quality hotel is all part of a memorable holiday; just make sure it's for all the right reasons!
