Recommendation

Nothing beats recommendation and if your best friend came back from her holiday with glowing reports about a hotel which suited her and her family to a tee, then you can’t get much better than that. Spend some time asking around family and friends for some ideas. Even if they don’t know of the perfect family hotel, they might have a friend who does.

Search The Internet

If you’re going down this road then it at least helps to have a few ideas in mind, such as do you want to stay in your own country or are you looking to go abroad. Do you want a city break or a beach holiday. Do you want all inclusive or breakfast only. Once you’ve got the answers to these questions you have the basis for an internet search.

It’s handy to take a look at sites where people rate places to stay –  seeing what they have to say about hotels which are of potential interest. Naturally, comments can vary, but if a venue is getting repeated bad comments, then you can decide whether or not to steer clear of it. There is also a wide range of travel books especially for families which contain lists of great places to stay and you will find these readily available to buy on the internet.

There’s also nothing preventing you from calling the hotel before booking just to check out the finer details such as do they offer a children’s menu, do they have wireless connection in the bedrooms, are there any play facilities for children, is there a baby sitting service. All those kind of things which can make a real difference to everyone having a great holiday and being kept occupied.

Travel Operator

No matter how well you trawl through a variety of hotels on the internet nothing quite compares to being able to speak to a person and ask questions or view your concerns. A reputable travel operator should have first hand knowledge of things like the hotels, family travel insurance and destinations  they recommend and accordingly should be able to match you and your family with a hotel that meets all of your criteria. Often, if they haven’t stayed there themselves, they may have a member of staff who has spent time there and can give you first hand information. At the end of the day you not only want good accommodation, but you also want the right location for your family trip.  So there you have it. Three great tips to finding the perfect family hotel. Bon voyage!
