Bed and Breakfast: A Viable Option to the Hotel and Motel


Via: Rolf Joho

Do you ever feel like you know just enough about bed and breakfast? Let's see if we can fill in some of the gaps with the latest info from bed and breakfast experts.

Though it is quite normal to spend your time in a different city or country in the comfort of a hotel or in some instances, in a motel, there is a lot to say in favor of staying in a bed and breakfast. A bed and breakfast is really an establishment that usually lets out some few rooms to people that wish to savor a more homely atmosphere and who need accommodations that is also not too costly. As can be implied by the name, bed and breakfast means getting to rent out a room and also be served with at least breakfast if not other meals.

British By Origin
Now that we've covered those aspects of bed and breakfast, let's turn to some of the other factors that need to be considered.

The term 'bed and breakfast' is actually British by origin and it was in that part of the world that this kind of accommodation was first made popular before being adopted by countries in different parts of the world. This popularity has led to allowing people that visit different countries get a chance to choose to stay at bed and breakfast and so sample firsthand the different cultures and cuisines and in a simple manner get more out of their stays.

There are no doubts the great amount of charm and quaintness that you will get to experience if you opt for a bed and breakfast stay and it is of course a very good alternative to living in the more commercially oriented accommodation options that are the norm in most cities and towns around the world. No doubt, a bed and breakfast cannot provide the same level of luxury that is normally available at the fancier hotels and even in some cases in motels. But, then this lack of luxury is more than compensated when you take into account the kind of hospitality and culture that you will get to experience at the bed and breakfast.

In the US, bed and breakfast establishments have begun to flourish and most of the ones that you get to stay in are really historical buildings that have been converted to provide authentic American experience in different states in the country. Some of the better known bed and breakfast establishments such as the Newport Blues Inn are truly worth staying in as they provide modernity, history and other excellent amenities as well. With fourteen different guest rooms, each renovated beautifully, this bed and breakfast establishment stands out from the run of mill similar accommodations and you also get to choose from rooms with private bathrooms as well as those that have queen or king-sized beds and even some that are deluxe or plain standard accommodations.

Sometimes it's tough to sort out all the details related to this subject, but I'm positive you'll have no trouble making sense of the information presented above.
