Why Staying at a Hotel is better than Staying
at a Bed and Breakfast
Many tourists and visitors to the Jersey Channel Islands are fully convinced that staying at a bed and breakfast is far much
better than staying at one of the many hotels in Saint Helier. They hold this view because they believe that it is
cheaper to stay in a bed and breakfast lodge than to stay in a hotel.
These people have not considered the total costs incurred while staying at a
bed an breakfast. Hotels have the advantage of providing their guests with breakfast and supper. The cost of these
services is included in the price of the room. This is why they may seem more costly. A Bed and Breakfast lodge in
most cases will only provide breakfast and no other meal. Guests are therefore forced to pay extra for additional
meals or to seek them elsewhere which may end up costing more than the price of a hotel room.
Another advantage of staying at one of the hotels in Saint
Helier rather than staying at a bed and breakfast is that hotels provide you with more facilities
under one roof.
You will find restaurants where you can have a meal, a lounge
and bar to have a drink and relax, a disco or dance hall to have a fun time in the evening,
swimming pools, gyms and fitness centers to keep fit, shops and other facilities.
Bed and breakfast lodges are usually designed only for
accommodation purposes.
They do not provide their guests with other facilities. These
have to be sought elsewhere by the guest at an additional cost.
