Hotels vs. Hostels? It Depends on the Destination!

 Hotels vs. hostels: which provides the best experience? #bizleisure blogger Josh Vignona checks in on both vacay-lodging options, the main differences between the two and some of his favorite hotel and shared room stays around the world.


Hotels vs. Hostels: What’s the Difference?

Before we get into the best hotel and hostel destinations in the world, let’s dive into what sets the two lodging styles apart – and why many travelers opt for one over the other:

Price

The price tag is nearly always a top concern when planning a trip. And due to cost-saving measures like shared rooms and limited amenities, hostels are definitely the more budget-friendly option. 

Privacy

While some hostels now offer private rooms, the rule-of-thumb tends to be shared sleeping areas, bathrooms and common areas. If you’re looking for privacy during your next vacation, Josh Vignona knows hotels are the way to go.
