Separate beds in European hotels? US citizen here. I’m planning a week in Europe for me and a friend and it seems like most hotels only have rooms with one bed. Some advertise that it’s two mattresses and sets of bedding, but it’s still just two beds pushed together. I’m seeing a few places with separate beds, but they’re twins, which just seem small to me. Do Europeans just sha…

Why don’t hotels in Europe use a top sheet under the duvet? I’ve seen far too many TV shows about how dirty hotel duvets can be, even if you can’t see it. I find that even the nice hotels in Europe don’t use a top sheet, which I find kind of gross. Why? submitted by /u/Mashlomech

Are adult only hotels designed specifically for seniors? My husband and I are chilling in Tenerife and we thought that adult only would be a good option for a bit of relaxation. We have now discovered that the average age of the customers is 65+ and we don’t have much in common with our fellow patrons. Have we just been unlucky or are these kind if hotels geared towards the silver dolkar/pound? su…

Snowy luxury hotels for a cozy, introverted trip? I’m dreaming of a trip somewhere I can sit in a hot tub, read a book and look out over a snowy landscape. Can anyone recommend a hotel in the alps or similar that’s well-equipped (modern facilities, good food or access to restaurants) and ideally not extremely difficult to get to? I don’t ski but I’m not opposed to a ski resort. Mostly care abou…

Should I pre-book Egypt vacation or rely on hotels for tours? My wife and I are planning a trip to Egypt in early November for about 8-10 days. We’re experienced travelers, but feel like this is a once-in-a-lifetime trip and we’re not afraid to splurge a bit. We’re thinking about Cairo, Aswan, Luxor, and maybe even Petra. Does anyone have experience with the pre-booked / all-inclusive (no airfare) trips fr…

LPT: Travel often and stay at hotels? Invest in a universal remote! My wife and I enjoying traveling, and typically stay in hotels while doing so. We’ve had numerous times where the remote for our room’s TV doesn’t work properly or won’t work with our hard drive (see the bonus LPT below). While at the store getting snacks for our room, we jokingly said we should get a universal remote for the room since the one …

Why are low/mid-level hotels so wildly inconsistent? I’ve stayed in a Hampton that felt luxurious and another one that felt like a step above a motel. I’ve stayed in a super 8 that was very clean and one that gave me the creeps. Some La Quinta’s are very modern looking and some look like a rundown motel. I know there are different franchises or whatever (La Quinta by Wyndham suites for example) bu…

Armories, Hotels, Offices: Where New York Could House Migrants There are no easy answers for officials trying to find shelter beds, but “everything is on the table,” a deputy mayor said.

LPT Request: How to save money and find cheap hotels/motels to stay in while traveling? I make a 16-hour drive twice a year to visit family. We’ve been trying to find ways to minimize the costs of having to find a room. Even a slimy motel is still costing us over $100 when we check in at 3am in the morning. We’ve tried negotiating, or looking for “members” or reward points for chains – but nothing seems to reduce the cost of a bed….

LPT: Coffee makers in Airbnbs & hotels If your hotel room or Airbnb is equipped with a capsule-type coffee maker, replace the water in the reservoir and make cups of coffee (without a capsule) until the water coming out of the machine is clear. You have no idea how long the coffee machine has been sitting since it was last used, and what kind of grunge is inside. submitted by …

Question about “pool access” rooms in hotels. Looking at different resorts in Thailand on booking (website) and they offer “pool access rooms” and “deluxe rooms”. The resorts have a big pool. If I don’t book a “pool access room” does it mean I won’t be able to access the pool? Example : Centara Aonang beach resort Thanks submitted by /u/Difficult-Duty-8156

LPT: Stay in hotels often? Bring a Roku or AppleTV They take almost no time to set up, have all of your streaming logins saved, and you can use your own remote instead of the gross one the hotel provides. They work on hotel wifi and have a special login option for that. I’m a big Apple fan but Roku is cheaper and smaller (I leave mine in my suitcase). submitted by /u/thiskillsthereddito…
