Travelheart A Blog for those who love to travel
Your honeymoon should be one of the most magical trips of your life, so you need to make sure you pick the right kind of accommodation. A hotel’s honeymoon suite is the traditional option, and plenty of couples book one without even considering their other options. One alternative is a serviced apartment – here are just three reasons why you might prefer one to a honeymoon suite.
- You Won’t Need to Leave the Room
However much you love your new spouse, let’s face it you may start to get a little stir crazy if you are stuck in the same room all the time. Venturing out into the communal hotel areas means encountering other travellers though which is not always the most relaxing, whereas when you book a serviced apartment, you won’t need to worry. You’ll have all the creature comforts of home, including a living room, and you won’t have to make way for housekeeping each day. You’ll even have a fully-fitted kitchen in case you want to whip up a romantic meal.
- You Won’t Need to Spend as Much
Honeymoon suites can be shockingly expensive. After all, the hotel will only have one such room, and they’ll understand that a premium can be charged to book it. It can be a little galling to pay so much, so you might as well spend the money on a serviced apartment instead – you could even find yourself saving.
- Your Room Will Be More Romantic
It’s far from rare for couples to be somewhat underwhelmed by the honeymoon suite. Unless you’re going to stay at one of the world’s top hotels, you’re probably not going to find the honeymoon suite vastly different from the other rooms – it will often just have more upscale materials and be a little larger. Serviced apartments are often surprisingly romantic. They tend to be converted from period properties, so they possess a certain charm and look distinct from other accommodations.
