subject: Choosing a Comfortable Hotel During Business Travel [print this page] No one wants to stay in a subpar hotelNo one wants to stay in a subpar hotel. This is especially true after you have spent hours in the air to get to your destination. As an entrepreneur, you may find yourself on the road a lot. As you travel to international locations, make sure you find a quality hotel so that you are ready and able to work. Whether you are traveling internationally to meet with a China manufacturer or to purchase wholesale products, the right accommodations are important.
Do Your Research. Research can be the difference between a great hotel and a less desirable one. Remember that while research is key, you also have to use judgment to choose a great hotel. Hotels change. A great hotel one year could be not as nice the next. It is important to consider more than just reviews when selecting your international accommodations.
Try to Choose New. New hotels are more likely to be a great choice than older ones. While there can be some great older hotels, the simple fact is that newer hotels tend to be nicer than older ones. If you have the pick of two similar hotels, choose the newer one. Newer hotels have less wear and tear and generally are just nicer. Use your judgment but remember when it comes to hotels, "the newer the better."
It May Pay Off to Drive a Little. Sure, you may be tempted to stay near the hotel. And for good reason, it can be very convenient. Hotels near the airport are often busier than their further counterparts. This leads to more traffic, more wear and tear and a less relaxing experience. If you plan on spending several days in the same hotel, drive a few miles and find a new and comfortable location a little further out.
Ask for Advice. You may also want to talk with friends and associates that have stayed in the same area. They can give you an honest opinion of the situation and are often the key to finding a great hotel wherever you travel. Talk with those you know; ask for advice and recommendations.
