Different Types of Hotels – What is Yours? | Ep. #203 HD

Do you own or manage a hospitality property? What type of hotel are you? I am going to tell you about the differences. Have you ever noticed there are many different types of hotels throughout the world? I have found a list that names over 60 types and I want to give credit to Christian Eilers https://djaunter.com/author/ceilers/ of Dauntless Jaunter https://djaunter.com/ for compiling this list. This episode will include the property terms from the most common accommodations to the most obscure, with definitions. Let’ get started. 1-Star Hotel – A one-star hotel is a designation for a hotel that meets minimum standards of service and quality, but offers just the bare essentials as far as amenities, service, and decor.

Exact inclusions and exclusions vary depending on the country, government oversight, and star ranking scheme. 7-Star Hotel – A seven-star hotel is a new, unofficial designation for a few high-end hotel properties around the world, mostly in the Middle East and Asia. Started as a marketing scheme, about a dozen hotels now exist which bill themselves as 7-star hotels and resorts. Features go way above those at “normal” hotels, with some offering a fleet of Rolls Royce Phantoms, helicopter services, or a 24-carat gold iPad in every room. Airbnb & Similar Businesses – Although not considered a hotel, is a place where a host has space to share and offers travellers a place to stay for a fee. Airport Hotel – An airport hotel is a property which is situated within an airport’s transit zone, on the airport’s property, or in close proximity to an airport. Known also as transit hotels when inside an inter
