10 Things to Consider When Choosing the Perfect Hotel

In terms of vacation accommodation, not everyone is looking for the same thing. Some people travel with children, some consider it essential for the hotel to be well-located, and others pay close attention to the catalog of activities offered. At Hotels VIVA, we understand that your comfort comes first, and that's why our hotels are located in the main points of interest in Mallorca. It doesn't matter if you're coming with family, as a couple, looking for relaxation, or sports; we have the perfect hotel for you.

Since there is a perfect accommodation for every type of traveler, here is a list of some of the most sought-after aspects when looking for the perfect hotel for your vacation:

1. Location

Location is one of the most important factors to consider when selecting a hotel. If you plan to visit a specific city, you'll want to be close to the main tourist attractions or areas of interest to minimize travel time. 

If location is an absolute priority for you, we recommend checking a map before choosing accommodation to find a hotel nearby or well-connected to your planned destinations.

2. Facilities and services

The services offered by a hotel can make a big difference in your enjoyment during your stay. In this regard, having a modern hotel without outdated facilities, spacious rooms for your comfort, and clean facilities are key factors for many travelers when making their decision.

Additionally, some hotels offer services such as 24-hour reception, spa, pool, restaurants, 24-hour room service, activity and experience reservations, transportation, free Wi-Fi, among others. Decide which services are important to you and look for hotels that offer them.

3. Price

Price is a determining factor and should fit your budget. Remember that the cost of a hotel room can vary depending on the season, location, and services offered. In this sense, booking in advance as much as possible or taking advantage of offers from some hotel chains can help you get accommodation of a higher category at the best price.

4. Size and type of hotel

Some people prefer small boutique hotels for their intimate and personalized atmosphere, while others prefer large hotel chains for their consistency and brand recognition. Consider what kind of environment you prefer and make your choice accordingly.

5. Hotel policies

Before making a reservation, make sure to read and understand the hotel's policies. This may include cancellation policies, check-in and check-out policies, and whether pets are allowed or not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact the hotel directly to address any issues that may arise.

6. Transportation access

If you plan to rent a car during your vacation, it's important to know if the hotel has its own parking or if there is ample parking nearby. On the other hand, if you plan to use public transportation, be sure to check the accessibility of the hotel, as well as the availability of taxis or proximity to bus stops, etc.

7. Dining

Having a restaurant in the hotel is always a very convenient option, whether you plan to spend most of your vacation at the hotel or if you'll be out all day and don't want to worry about finding restaurants in the area. 

Additionally, there are hotels like Hotels VIVA that place great importance on their gastronomic and culinary offerings, with varied and appetizing options.

8. Sports facilities

Choosing a hotel with a gym or sports facilities can be an excellent option for multiple reasons, especially for those who value well-being and physical activity even during their vacations.

If you have a regular exercise routine, having access to a gym at the hotel can help you stick to your routine even while on vacation. This can help you stay in shape and feel good.

9. Safety

Safety should be a priority, especially if you are traveling to an unfamiliar city or country. Research the safety of the area where the hotel is located and look for hotels that offer security features such as 24-hour reception and safety deposit boxes, among others.

10. Specific needs

Finally, consider your specific needs. If you are traveling with children, is the hotel child-friendly? If you have a special diet, can they provide the food you need? If you have a disability, is the hotel accessible?
