What are the differences in the facilities of a luxury hotel vs a semi-luxury hotel vs a budget hotel?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Luxury hotels are classified as five star hotels. Rates for accommodation are very high and generally used by people who can spend a lot of money: the rich, VIP class people, big investors, celebrities. A five-star hotel must have facilities & services to meet guest expectations. Because guests pay more they expect top comfort. Five star properties are successful when they deliver services and standards that are equal or better than the same of the competition. Facilities are well maintained, especially the swimming pool.

When people feel like relaxing in a different environment and pampering themselves, they need a hotel that can provide exotic facilities. Luxury hotels are an escape. These hotels have a travel desk that helps the guests in organizing and managing city tours for them. Some of the additional facilities provided by hotels are personal attention, private pools, welcome drinks, royal treatment and private vehicles for hire. All the luxury hotels have online booking systems that make reservations so easy.

Some basic facilities, services and amenities offered in luxury hotels are:

  • Inhouse Dining
  • Restaurant/s
  • Cafe/ Bar/Lounge
  • Room service - 24 hr
  • Swimming pool
  • Car Parking
  • Valet Parking
  • Dry cleaning/laundry service
  • Tour desk
  • 24 hour front desk
  • Concierge
  • Arrival/Departure lounge
  • Luggage storage
  • Gym/Fitness room
  • Lift /Elevator
  • Interconnecting rooms
  • Business center/Conference/Meeting facilities
  • Wheelchair accessible
  • Airport shuttle
  • Wifi access
  • Online reservations
  • Premium cable TV
  • 24 hours snacks



The semi luxury hotel is for people who want an average, but nice, hotel stay. These are usually tourists and people who only want to be there a short amount of time. Semi luxury hotels have many of the same facilities but the quality is not the same. A four-star hotel is a hotel with top standards (same objectives as a five-star hotel), furnishings, material and details used are not as rich. Guestrooms are less expensive compared to guestrooms of five-star properties.


Budget class hotels are for people who are budget conscious or on a limited budget. Rates are more affordable but services and facilities are limited. Generally there is no swimming pool, small self serve coffee shops inside hotel premises are common, noisier rooms, late night partying, less congenial surroundings, etc. A budget-hotel serves guests with a "smaller" purse. And, of course, there may be a greater chance of pests.


Budget hotels may be clean and well run, comfortable and good quality,but don't usually offer extra services such as spas, gyms, swimming pools, or fine dining restaurants. They'll still have breakfast facilities, ensuite bathrooms, cable TV and tea and coffee making facilities. If you're looking for somewhere affordable that meets simple requirements, they can be a good choice. They do vary of course, so be sure to do your research.


Typically, the differences lie in the size of the rooms, scope of amenities, quality of furnishings, quality of services provided, and price.

What is housekeeping services?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Office housekeeping refers to keeping your desk, computer, cubicle and/or work area organized and up to date. The benefits of office housekeeping include allowing you to work in an efficient and productive manner, with fewer frustrations and less wasted time. The extent of office housekeeping you need to do is directly relevent to how much work you have to do. If your household includes only you and your spouse (and you have no in-process medical or legal situation you are currently dealing with), your office housekeeping will be quite quick and easy. If, on the other hand, you have 3 kids, 4 pets, a husband, a home business, a volunteer activity, and family and leisure activities, your office housekeeping is going to require time and skill and patience. Fortunately, there are now countless stores and companies that make products and offer suggestions (or are for hire) to make office housekeeping fairly simple. If you devote just a little time once or twice a month to the tasks of office housekeeping, you will keep your systems operating smoothly, your emails and paperwork filed for easy retrieval, and your inbox a place you want to be, instead of a place you dread going!

Why do hotel rooms have Bibles?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Most hotel room Bibles are placed there by members of the Gideons, International, a group of Christian individuals (usually businessmen) who distribute Bibles to hotel rooms, hospitals, and, in the past, schools. (School distribution has been restricted recently due to court rulings invoking the "Establishment Clause" of the Constitution.) See the Related Link, "History of the Gideon Bible," to the left for more information.

How do you do par levels in housekeeping?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Housekeeping should maintain a 3 turn inventory. One on the bed, one in the wash and one on the shelf. Items will need to be checked for service quarterly. A good rule is to replace 25% each quarter thereby replenishing total inventory in a year. Towels should be a little higher as you will have slippage. Keep a good history of purchase to replace and then you will have an actual record for the property.
