ROOM TYPES

IN A HOTEL
What are the different room types
in hotels?
In the hotel industry, the days of hotels only offering guests standard rooms are
long gone! Nowadays, there is a myriad of room types and suites at hotels around
the world meaning that any group size and most preferences can be catered for.
Of course, variously sized and styled hotel rooms are made available at differing
rates which, as a hotel management company, we recommend
adjusting depending upon occupancy, time of year, and other factors.

Rooms tend to fall into categories when it comes to price bands, the type of
décor, whether a room is pool-side or ocean-side… Images and descriptions of
main features and amenities applying to each room category will usually be
included on a hotel’s brand website and across its distribution channels.
Different types of rooms in hotels
Resorts rooms : luxurious accommodations that offer guests a comfortable
and upscale stay during their vacation. These rooms typically feature
premium amenities such as plush bedding, high-end furniture, and high-tech
gadgets. Resort rooms can vary in size and style, from cozy studios to
spacious suites with private balconies and ocean views.

Boutique creative rooms : Creative rooms in boutique hotels can range from
themed suites with elaborate decor and furnishings, to quirky spaces with
unexpected touches and features.

Lodge rooms : These rooms offer a cozy and rustic accommodation option
for travelers looking to experience the great outdoors.

Luxury rooms: High-end accommodations that offer guests a premium and


upscale experience during their stay.

Hotel Rooms by Design


&veryLayout
It´s typical for hotels to classify and price their rooms according to
the layout and size of the room. You´ll typically find names such as:

•Standard Room: your standard entry-level room.

•Deluxe Room & Superior Room: the next step up in room categories, usually
outfitted with slightly better amenities and larger footprint.

•Executive Room: a hotel room more orientated towards business (executive)


guests. Usually with a desk or space for guests to get some work done.

•Suite Rooms:
TYPES OF SUITE ROOM
•Junior Suite or Mini-Suite: a single room with a bed and sitting area. Sometimes the
sleeping area is in a bedroom separate from the parlor or living room.

•Master Suite: a parlor or living room connected to one or more bedrooms.

•Executive Suite: similar to the executive room but larger and with better amenities.

•Presidential room: usually the largest and most luxurious room of the hotel property.

•Penthouse Suite: a suite located on the top floor of the building, typically very similar to
the presidential room in size and amenities;

•Villa Suite: as the name suggests, this would be a separate villa of usually high quality
and with numerous luxurious amenities.

•Aparthotel rooms / apart-style rooms: similar to an apartment in amenities (e.g.


kitchen, dining area etc.) and often segmented towards the short and long-stay market.
Also, there are hotel rooms that connect to other rooms:

•Connecting rooms: Rooms with individual entrance doors from the outside and
a connecting door between. Guests can move between rooms without going
through the hallway.

•Adjoining rooms: Rooms with a common wall, but no connecting door.

•Adjacent rooms: Rooms close to each other, perhaps across the hall.

Lastly, some hotels offer accessible rooms which offer easy access to people with
disabilities or those who have limited mobility. These rooms typically have facilities such
as ground floor access or level flooring up until an elevator, wheelchair
ramps/wheelchair lift, lowered washing basins, widened doors etc.
Hotel Rooms by Amenities or View

Of course, hotels can choose to include names of the room´s amenities in the
name to make entice visitors to book rooms with higher markup, and thereby make
more revenue (yielding).

Examples include:

•“Name of room” + with pool

•“Name of room” + with jacuzzi

•“Name of room” + balcony or terrace

•“Name of room” + beach access

•“Name of room” + club access (private lounge)


Also, hoteliers should always choose to adjust their
prices if the hotel offers a specific view, like the below
examples:

•Sea view room or suite

•City view room or suite

•Garden view room or suite

•Patio view room or suite

•Pool view room or suite
