If you\u2019ve traveled literally anywhere in your home country or abroad, you\u2019ve likely already chosen between staying in hotels vs. hostels. If you\u2019re like me, one of the biggest factors for choosing one over the other is budget. But what else should you consider when looking for accommodations?<\/p>\n

This guide will provide some helpful insight into what factors could potentially sway you to choose hotels vs. hostels:<\/p>\n

Price<\/h2>\n

Typically, a hotel room will be much more expensive than staying in a hostel dorm. Considering that dorms usually sleep anywhere from 4 to 10 people (sometimes even more!), with a shared bathroom, the price difference is obvious \u2014 you get what you pay for.<\/p>\n

However, if you are considering staying in a private<\/em> room at a hostel, you might be able to have all the benefits (and a private bathroom) without paying what you would at a hotel. Many private rooms in hostels have comfortable beds, full bathrooms, a safe, and everything that a hotel room has.<\/p>\n

This all depends, of course, on where you are traveling. For example, if you are backpacking through Southeast Asia, what you\u2019ll pay for a nice hotel room is about the same as what you\u2019d pay for a dorm bed in some places in Europe. That said, look at your budget and decide how much you\u2019re willing to pay for accommodations. On a shoestring budget? Perhaps a dorm bed is the best option. But if you have a little more to spend, you can go for a private room at a hostel and save money while having just as much comfort as you would in a hotel.<\/p>\n
