Travelling in style does not necessarily mean what you look like when travelling; (although it does help!) it’s about your means of travel, your destination and your planned activities.
Think about your means of travel, for most of us, business or even first class are generally out of reach but you can really find some good deals online, especially if you are open to travelling at inconvenient times. This goes for all means of travel from aero travel to ferries.
Once you have your travel plans sorted you need to think about the destination. Now when it comes to style, you instinctively think of the biggest plush luxury hotels some of which can charge extortionate rates per night. If these are a little too expensive, you may be better off booking late. Even the biggest hotels don’t like having empty rooms so try and swoop in at the last minute. Some of the cheapest two night stays at big hotels are Sunday and Monday nights; these are the least prime times for most of their guests so if you take a little time off work you can be in for a real treat at a fraction of the price.
The activities planned for your time away may be the most expensive parts, especially if you have attempted to remain frugal throughout the booking process. Going out to eat, enjoying the night life and sightseeing can really stack up the bills but there are some short cuts worth considering.
First of all, if you make sure you book a hotel that offers a range of meals in with the price of the stay, you could save a lot on eating out. If you also plan your activities within the hotel you can save more money still. Hotel activities don’t have to be tacky discos and karaoke, if you visit a spa hotel for example you can be in for a real pampering session. If you book spa vouchers from spabreaks.com you can pick and choose not only from the location but the types of treatments you want to receive. Spa Breaks offer packages for all pockets so no matter what your budget; you can always travel in style.
