Directory of room types, accommodation and meals in hotels. Classification of hotel rooms Double room dbl standard room annex building

Greetings, friends! 🙂 In what cases might a person need hotel accommodation? Do you think only on vacation? But no. It happens that even in your own city there is a need to rent a hotel room. Happens. . We won’t go into details; the reasons are different for everyone.

Hotel room with courtyard view

What is the greatest value of a hotel room?

So, what guests value in hotel accommodation - it all depends on the purpose for which they came to a particular city or country. Different people have different priorities:

View from the windows- for vacationers who intend to lead an imposing lifestyle, to be not only on the beach, but also to enjoy the comfort indoors.
total area- important for families with children.
Number of rooms— business people prefer having a bedroom, as well as a separate room such as a study.
Floor— for some it is important to be on the upper tiers of the building, others prefer a low location.

We do not talk about such points as the level of service and the quality of everything that is inside, since this depends on the level of the hotel itself, that is, how many stars it is assigned.

Because we need to know more about the Standard category Room Land View (as mentioned above, this type of housing means that hotel guests will contemplate its nearby views), then let's try to guess what might be in your field of vision if you go out onto the balcony.

View of the surrounding area from a room located on the 8th floor

Standard Room Land View - standard room with a view of the surrounding area of the hotel

After thinking a little, you will say that in the vicinity of the hotel there may be both a sea and an ocean. Look how many wonderful hotels are located right on the coasts.

The 5 star level does not include accommodation of this type, so you will not only have a view of a prosaic area, but also a level of hotel service below 5 stars. Don't be alarmed, this is very decent quality, just not luxury.

By the way, we are talking about a Standard room with a view of the surrounding area, but there may be other types of rooms with local views from the windows:

Deluxe room land view - improved deluxe;
Family room land view - family;
Promo room land view — promo category number;
Single Room Land View - single room with a view of the surrounding area, etc.

Who is suitable for housing with a view of the surrounding area?

Let's return to the beginning of our story and remember that a hotel may be needed not only by a vacationer, but also by a business traveler who has come, for example, to a business forum. Will the view of the surroundings confuse him - of course not. . He will only spend the night in the room and clean himself up.

Now about vacationers - housing of this type is definitely more budget-friendly. . The reasons are as follows:

The hotel will be located a bit far from the sea.
From the window you will see a road, ordinary buildings or just a field.
You may come across a parking lot or trash containers.
You will probably see the hotel's courtyard and outbuildings.

Advantages of Standard Room Land View

The positive aspects include the fact that rooms of this type are mainly located in the main building, all the necessary hotel infrastructure is practically nearby.

Direct view of the surrounding area and side view of the sea

By the way, the surroundings are also different:

you can observe the well-groomed, pleasant-looking hotel area with an abundance of greenery and flowering plants;
if you're lucky, the Land View may have a direct view of the hotel territory and a lateral view of the sea;
and if you are even more lucky, the room will be quiet, as the surroundings will be calm.

That's all. Comfort for you both on a business trip and on vacation. Be always healthy! 🙂

When planning any trip, the question of accommodation always arises. Many hotels are ready to offer a countless variety of rooms, from which you often don’t know what to expect.

Unified world classification standards hotel rooms, unfortunately, does not exist, but figure out which number is hidden under this or that name (for example, superior room - that this) is possible.

Categories of rooms in hotels

In Russian hotels, rooms are divided into a couple of different categories: higher and standard.

Higher

Suite(Suite). Upscale hotel room with an area of 75 m². The suite consists of at least three rooms. One of the mandatory requirements is a separate guest toilet.

In addition to the bedroom, the suite must have a living room and a separate office, or visually separated from the living room space.

Apartment(Apartment). The size of this room starts at 40 m². Requirements: at least two rooms, and there must be a kitchen area.
Lux(Luxe). A room that can comfortably accommodate two people. Consists of a bedroom (sometimes more than one) and a living room. The area of the Suite is at least 35 m².
Junior Suite(Junior Suite). This is a one-room suite, the convenient layout of which visually delimits the space into a sleeping area and a living room. The area of the Junior Suite is at least 25 m².
Studio(Studio). One room with a kitchen area. The Studio area is at least 25 m².

Standard

All standard category rooms are one-room.

The difference lies in the number of beds and the presence or absence of a bathroom in the room.

1st category(otherwise – standard). Designed to accommodate one or two people. The room has a toilet room.
2nd category. Differs from category 1 in the presence of an incomplete bathroom (sink and toilet).
3rd category. The number of people staying in this room depends on the number of beds. But at least 6 m² must be allocated for each resident. The room is equipped with either a partial bathroom or one full bathroom for several rooms.
4th category. It differs from the 3rd category room in that it only has a washbasin.
5th category. The rooms of the fifth category do not have a bathroom at all. The washbasin is located in the corridor.

Classification of hotel rooms - decoding and translation

Rooms in foreign countries may differ in classification and requirements from Russian standards.

According to European standard

View from the window - designations

In resort countries, there is also a classification of rooms according to the view from the windows. Usually, an abbreviation is added to the name of the room, for example, Deluxe, for example, G.V.(Garden View), informing you about the view that awaits you from the windows of this room. Deluxe GV is a Deluxe room with a garden view.

Let's figure out what types are hidden under certain abbreviations:

To book a hotel room, use this convenient form search. Enter city, check-in and check-out dates And number of guests.

The correct choice of hotel room, of course, depends on budget, on what kind of vacation you are planning on, who you are going with.
If it happens to you child, then you definitely need to pay attention to what kind of sleeping place will be provided for him.
If you are a lover of excursions and active rest, then you will be at the hotel just sleep. Why pay extra for the benefits of Superior over Standard if you don’t even notice them? In this case, you can think about Promo room, if the selected hotel offers this option.

If you prefer beach holiday and you expect to spend most of your time on the hotel premises, the room should be sufficient comfortable.

In this case, the only question is what do you expect from the room and what bonuses are you willing to pay extra for.

A pleasant evening on the balcony with a glass of wine and a view of the sea will not be possible if the room does not have a balcony or the windows face the wall of a neighboring building.

It’s best when you have the opportunity to find out in advance everything about the room in which you are going to spend your vacation, so that your impressions of it remain only pleasant.
