b'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\\u2019 get started.

1-Star Hotel \\u2013 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.

2-Star Hotel \\u2013 A two-star hotel is a designation for a hotel property that is usually reasonably priced and offers minimal services, amenities, and decor. A good option for budget travellers that want a bit more than the no-frills scene at a one-star hotel. Exact inclusions and exclusions vary depending on the country, government oversight, and star ranking scheme.

3-Star Hotel \\u2013 A three-star hotel is meant to be slightly above average as far as service, options, and amenities. Exact inclusions and exclusions vary depending on the country, government oversight, and star ranking scheme. Modern conveniences and on-site hotel staff can be expected at most 3-star properties.

4-Star Hotel \\u2013 A four-star hotel offers a deluxe level of service, whether for business travellers or those on vacation. Hotel guests can expect luxury amenities, a range of hotel services, and excellent decor. Exact inclusions and exclusions vary depending on the country, government oversight, and star ranking scheme.

5-Star Hotel \\u2013 A five-star hotel is the highest standard in just about every hotel ranking system. Guests at 5-star hotels and resorts can expect luxurious rooms, attentive staff, unique art, fine dining restaurants, spa services, and more. Exact inclusions and exclusions vary depending on the country, government oversight, and star ranking scheme.

7-Star Hotel \\u2013 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 \\u201cnormal\\u201d hotels, with some offering a fleet of Rolls Royce Phantoms, helicopter services, or a 24-carat gold iPad in every room.

Airbnb & Similar Businesses \\u2013 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 \\u2013 An airport hotel is a property which is situated within an airport\\u2019s transit zone, on the airport\\u2019s property, or in close proximity to an airport. Known also as transit hotels when inside an international airport\\u2019s transit zone, airport hotels offer connecting travellers the convenience of nearby accommodations. Some may even offer rooms at an hourly rate to give travellers a few hours to change, shower, and nap between flights.

Albergo Diffuso \\u2013 The Albergo Diffuso is an Italian hospitality-concept aimed at reinvigorating small, dying towns by making several distinct places (e.g., town hall, brewery) each into a unique \\u201croom\\u201d of this dispersed hotel. The Alberghi Diffusi (plural) gives guests a unique opportunity to witness the life of the small town from within.

Apartment Hotel \\u2013 An apartment hotel is a hotel property located in an apartment building and offering similar decor, appliances, and amenities as renting an apartment would, but with hotel services such as reception also available. Apartment hotels are also known as serviced apartments or residential hotels and are similar to extended-stay hotels.

Interesting isn\\u2019t it? Do you know I have more than 50 other types of hotels and I\\u2019ll share them with you, right after a word from our sponsors...
