HOTEL AND HOSTEL

Puntúa 50,00 sobre 50,00

Hotels and hostels both provide accommodations to travelers, but while the two provide a dry place to stay, the similarities end there. Let's see some of the di—erences they have:

Hotel

Hostel

Hostels are generally used by younger travelers with less money to spare, and those In most cases, hotels are visiting one will most likely be the more luxurious of required to share a room as the two and, therefore, well as bath and shower more expensive. At a rooms. hotel, a traveler can have his own room and bathroom as well as maid service and other amenities.

A person staying at a hotel will have his bags carried to his room, fresh towels delivered, and his bed made up daily.

During a hotel stay, one is on his own when it comes to ῤnding places to eat, unless a meal is included in the package. In the past, rooms were set up dormitory fashion, with communal showers. In recent years, however, some have started o—ering single rooms and bathrooms, while shared, might accommodate only one guest at a time.

This situation won't happen at a hostel. You make your own bed and there is no room service.

Hostels are most often associated with backpackers looking for inexpensive, temporary shelter as well as a place for a shower and a meal. Some will include a hot meal or beverage in the accommodation price and most will provide a kitchen area where guests can cook their own food. 

When staying at a hotel on the other hand, visitors best not attempt to check in without cash Some hostels will allow or a valid credit card. guests to work in exchange for a discount or even a night's stay. 

A hostel owner is used to backpackers and long distance bicycle riders showing up in need of a shower, so being clean isn't Guest at a hotel MUST be very important. clean all the time. They may reject people who are less than clean.

A hotel will often provide guests with mini refrigerators, wet bars, cable television, wireless Internet service, telephones, irons and hair dryers.  Visitors probably won't get to know the person staying in the room next to them, and the goal is typically privacy and quiet.

Hotels provide all the linens (clothes for your bed- sheets). Also, the bedrooms are safer, so your things are secure in your bedroom.

The accommodations in a hostel, on the other hand, while minimal, are not unpleasant, and they rarely include any extras. People who stay there often have some interesting tales to tell, and a community room is often available where guests can mingle and shoot pool or watch television.

Some hostels don't supply linens, which means that guests are required to bring their own. In addition, many, especially youth hostels, require their guests to abide by their rules, which include a curfew. This may also include no drinking or smoking. Since the accommodation is more communal, travelers might need to guard their property and may want to sleep with their cash and credit cards.

 

Let's practice! Classify the words in the box if it corresponds to a hostel or to a hotel. Write only one concept in each space and be careful with spelling:

Complete the text using vocabulary from this lesson: Traveling Abroad By Casey Slide Some years ago I had the opportunity to travel around Europe with some students for three weeks. I visited Germany, the Czech Republic, Italy, and France. During my trip, I stayed in a number of dorm-like facilities, known as  

hostels

.

Hostels are one of the most popular types of lodgings in Europe. But before you stay in a hostel for the ῤrst time, learn more about some pros and cons of hostels, and tips for staying in them. What Is a Hostel? A hostel is a low-budget accommodation shared among travelers. When a guest books a stay in a  

hostel

a bed for the night, not a room. The guest's bed may be in a room with four other  

, or in a room with up to twenty

travelers

, he or she typically books

travelers. Bathrooms are dorm-style; large, with several shower stalls and a row of sinks. Hostels usually have only one or two bathrooms on each ῼoor. Hostels tend to lend to more interaction, cost much less than a

hotel

, but do not provide the privacy or personal service

found at a hotel. Advantages to Staying at a Hostel 1. Inexpensive Hostels are cheap travel accommodations, especially when compared to staying in a hotel. Although prices vary from country to country, and hostel to hostel, I've compiled some average price ranges for hostels in frequently traveled European countries. Most of these rates apply to the majority of hostels throughout the world, though cheaper hostels exist in places like South America, and more expensive ones in cities like Washington, D.C. These rates are approximate, and the rates are per person, per night: England & Wales $10-$40, France $15-$30, Germany $25, Greece $15, Ireland $15-$35, Italy $10-$30, Spain $15-$25. 2. Travel in Groups Staying in hostels allows everyone to  

share

 large rooms. In fact, some hostels allow up to twenty people to stay in one room. This

can be a lot of fun, especially when you plan a group vacation, and eliminates the arguments over who shares rooms. 3. Located in Most Major Cities Around the World Hostels are not as prevalent in the U.S., but they are everywhere in Europe. You can ῤnd hostels in most major European cities, and in most major cities across the globe, on every continent other than Antarctica. 4. Most Have Fully Equipped Kitchens If you want to save money during your travels by cooking your own  use.
