Choosing a hotel, some tips
This is what I have used to find good hotels, especially important when you are booking something in another country and need your first bet to be a good (enough) one.
Never override your own senses/reactions with “the rules” but this has been helpful with knowing where to start. Lots of fails and trial and error for me.
– Go as new as you can. In tropical countries, it’s even more important to choose new. Brand new if you can find it. Buildings do not hold up well in the tropics.
– In countries I really want to go to, I’m watching for opening dates of hotels I have my eyes on.
– Big brands can be better. Marriot, Hilton, and Hyatt, and some European brands too can be better built. Though I would not choose an older big name over a newer local hotel.
