Picking a Hotel

You may think of the hotel as just a place to sleep. But picking the right accommodation is key to planning a family trip. That cozy bed and breakfast may seem romantic on paper, but if your kids are bored to tears, nobody's going to have any fun.

  • Look for accommodations that are family-friendly. Find out in advance if your hotel offers a supervised children's program with safe, educational, and fun activities, and care-givers who are trained in childcare and emergency procedures.

  • Other features to seek out are adjoining rooms or suite accommodations, a children's swimming pool, babysitting services, rollaway cots and cribs, and child-safe electrical outlets.
