Finally, you got a chance to be out on a vacation with your family for 2 weeks. Or your boss is sending you out of your country for a business meeting or trade fair. It sure sounds exciting since you will have some days to break free from your routine life. However, besides other things, you also need personal attention to take enough precautions for your personal health while your stay in hotels. After all, you want the trip to be pleasantly memorable and not otherwise don’t you?
- Choose a decent hotel : All good hotels need not be expensive if you are conscious of only the price factor. You may land in a hotel with less facilities but it is anyway better than motels.
- Bring your own sheets: It is always better to use your own sheets so that you can be sure it is clean and germ free. There make sure you pack these sheets in your packing kit before you leave for your dream vacation.
- Prefer room at above third floors: This has two advantages. Firstly, you have relatively good atmosphere and can breathe in good air as pollution decreases as you go top. Secondly, most thefts occur in the first two floors, However, make sure you do not take a room higher than seventh floor, so that you wont have any difficulty in coming out of the hotel during an emergency situation like fire.
- Choose modern recent hotels over the old-fashioned ones: Of course, it would be ideal to stay in old-fashioned hotels giving that touch of romance and personal touches. And that too if you are on a vacation with your to be partner. However, remember, most old historical hotels have one common problem of allergens and dust accumulated over years. Therefore, choose modern hotels over the old one.
- Demand allergy-free and odourless room: Do not ask the hotel staff to pre-spray some perfumes, which could cause allergy to you. Also, make sure to make a special and stern request of giving you a room that is allergen- free. After you check in , you can always choose to spray room fresheners of your choice.
- Choose hotel having swimming pool and exercise room: If your duration at the hotel is going to be long, always go for hotels having swimming pools. A half an hour swim at the pool will not keep you fit but also help you to relax your stiff muscles after traveling. Alternatively, a good cardiac workout at the inbuilt gym of the hotel will make your vacation or your trip more successful.
- Bed is meant for sleeping: Most people who stay in hotels have bad habit of doing daily activities like eating, or playing games of cards on the bed. You need to maintain hygiene and use bed only for sleeping. Of course, there is no harm in relaxing and watching movies from the bed.
