Staying in boutique hotel. Intimate and quirky!

You’ve probably heard of a “boutique” hotel. But what exactly is a boutique hotel, and what sets it apart from a regular hotel? A boutique hotel is a term used to describe a hotel with a luxurious and unique—but above all, intimate—atmosphere. These are often small or medium-sized hotels. In a boutique hotel, a great deal of attention is usually paid to the decor and interior design of the hotel and the guest rooms. Read on to discover what makes boutique hotels so popular and where you can find them!

The concept of boutique hotels originated in the United States in the 1980s. Starting then, smaller hotels sought to distinguish themselves specifically from the massive hotel chains in New York by providing more personalized service and creating a cozier, home-like atmosphere. This led to the emergence of many small hotels, each with its own unique style. This trend then spread across the globe, and now you can find boutique hotels just about everywhere. Today, these boutique hotels are more popular than ever. That’s because the big hotel chains all look the same: small rooms with standard furnishings. Many people therefore prefer to stay at small-scale hotels where guests receive personalized attention. These are the stays you’ll remember for many years to come.

Many people think that a room in a boutique hotel is much more expensive than a room at a large hotel chain. However, this is by no means always the case. Of course, there are boutique hotels that are relatively more expensive than a large hotel. This is often the case with boutique hotels featuring larger rooms in the center of major cities like Paris, Amsterdam, or Berlin. There, you might pay as much as 350 euros per night for a room. However, there are also plenty of boutique hotels in smaller cities and towns. These boutique hotels often have much more reasonable rates and are therefore much more affordable. You can even find hostels that are designed like boutique hotels. There, you can stay for less than 100 euros a night.

As mentioned, you can find boutique hotels in every country these days. The Netherlands and Belgium also have some really charming boutique hotels where you’ll experience a warm welcome.
