In order to take advantage of all the benefits of the hotels’ loyalty programs, you must book directly<\/strong> with them on their website or by phone. A reservation made through a reservation platform (such as Hotels.com, Expedia, etc.) does not work.<\/p>\n

Depending on your travel experience, whether you want to have breakfast included at the hotel<\/a>and your budget, you can choose what you want!<\/p>\n

Popular hotels include Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, IHG, and Wyndham.<\/p>\n

The best hotel brand depends on your travel style and budget.<\/p>\n

For a small budget, a Quality Inn (Choice Hotels), a Best Western or a TownePlace Suites (Marriott) can do the trick.<\/p>\n

For the ultimate travel experience, a Fairmont (Accor), Waldorf Asstoria (Hilton) or Ritz-Carlton (Marriott) are excellent choices.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What is the difference between a hotel and a motel?”]<\/p>\n

The purpose of the hotel and the motel is the same: to accommodate travelers.<\/p>\n

The hotel often has more floors, more rooms and offers several services (conference rooms, swimming pool, restaurant, elevators, porter, valet, etc.).<\/p>\n

A motel usually has limited service, the rooms are on one or two floors, and parking is right outside the room’s front door. Its great advantage is that it is much cheaper than a hotel and located near the highway, for quick access.<\/p>\n
