Different Types of Accommodation in the Hotel Industry

It is important to understand that the hotel industry is a catch-all term, used to describe
services related to guest accommodation. With that in mind, it is worth noting that there are
a variety of different accommodation types which fall under this umbrella term. Some of the
main types are described in more detail below:

Hotels
The most common type of accommodation in the hotel industry, a hotel is defined as an
establishment that offers overnight accommodation, meals and other services. They are
mainly aimed at travellers or tourists, although locals may also use them. Hotels provide
private rooms, and almost always have en-suite bathrooms.

Bed and Breakfasts


Bed and breakfasts, or B&Bs, are smaller establishments, which offer guests private rooms
for overnight stays, along with breakfast in the morning. Often, these establishments are
converted from private homes and many B&B owners live in their property. While they are
often a budget option, high-end or luxury B&Bs do also exist
