AirBnB vs Hotel stays, Which is Best

Jul 13

Welcome back to Brooke In The Air! Today, we present another travel blog! We’re answering another great question, specifically which is best or better for ideal travel circumstances, AirBnBs or hotels?

Personally, we at Brooke In The Air prefer hotels by far.

Here’s some information as to why.

Hotels offer active customer service and care. AirBnBs tend to let you fend for yourself. And God forbid something breaks in the house during your stay. You become legally liable, unlike hotels which normally assume full cost of the room or suite should something untoward happen.
24/7 room service. It’s a small thing, a luxury really, but it makes or can make all the difference between staying inna location and actually visiting a place and making plans to return. A rental locations service leaves a lasting impression and AirBnBs simply do not provide.
Last minute cancelations. It’s inconvenient bu
t it happens, it’s part of life. Hotels typically, unless booked otherwise, provide for this sort of thing and have the ability to cover if a customer backs out of a booking.
Convenient locations. Most AirBnBs are typically in suburbs or the countryside, providing an inconvenient access to the city.
Memberships: Hyatt, Hilton, Marriott, Karisma, Luxor, Jumeirah, Ritz-Carlton, the list goes on. These memberships provide access to VIP perks not available anywhere else. AirBnBs have nothing with access to nothing.
Airline partnerships. A huge deal: Many big hotel brands have partnered with major airlines to provide exclusive perks and discounts.
