We’ve listed luxury hotels and budget hotels for you, but if you’re looking for the right mix between budget friendly and classy amenities, then mid-range hotels might just fit the bill for you. Typically, properties that are in the middle of the price range are considered to be business class hotels that cater to those who travel with more professional and straightforward needs when it comes to accommodation. Most business travels would be company paid so a good mid-range business class hotel will definitely hit the target as long as there is a business center, a solid internet connection inside guest rooms, transport options, and board rooms or function halls if they opt to hold a business conference/meeting within the property. These hotels will also be strategically located at the center of business and commercial areas to make it convenient for guests to travel to and fro various venues for their scheduled events. Although these properties market to the business travelers, they also offer amenities and facilities that will entice other types of travelers, such as tourists or families that out for a quick weekend “staycation”, and who opt not to spend an outrageous amount of money on booking a luxury room but are still looking forward to high quality hotel service and facilities. Some of these mid-range properties still have recreational amenities such as fitness centers, spa services, and swimming pools that tourists and families can enjoy.

If you are traveling for business and you have special needs and instructions for the duration of your stay, it would do you a world of good to contact the property’s reservation officer ahead of time via email (so you’ll have a paper trail of your conversation). It can be special requests such as a wake up call, laundry services, daily morning newspaper, continuous internet access, car rentals, etc. Now you may have to pay for some of these special requests and they may not be gratis inclusions in your room booking, but it would still be to your advantage to arrange these before your travel date to make your hotel stay relaxing and hassle-free.
