The long-awaited vacation is approaching. Perhaps you are planning to go on the journey with the whole family. Many tourists have a very important question: to take up the hotel booking and transfer yourself or still entrust this task to an experienced tour operator?
In the first case, it is possible to save considerably, and in the second - to instruct the professionals selection of accommodation at the rest of the rest, but here you are often risking to get a "cat in a bag" in the form of a voucher with incomprehensible abbreviations and numbers of numbers.
Sometimes a misunderstanding of what type of room you sold, leads to unpleasant surprises already upon arrival at the resort.
In this article, Kidpassage will help you to deal with the most common terms related to the starry of hotels, and will also prompt how to determine the number of rooms in hotels.
Categories Hotels in Stars
To begin with, we will understand how the star of hotels is determined. Usually, this conditional concept is used to designate the level of the service that the hotel can provide.
Star System - European System Qualification System, which introduced the World tourist organization. According to her policies, hotels are divided into five categories: from 1 to 5 stars. The system is widely used in,, China,, Brazil, in most European and other countries of the world.
And the countries of Asia also exists this classification, but the stars here are highly overestimated compared to similar European hotels.
Here the owners of hotels often assign their stars themselves. In addition, the hotelians sometimes practice the understatement of the hotel category to get away from elevated taxes.
According to the European system it was believed that the maximum number of hotel stars could be 5. But relatively recently appeared new hotels in: 6 and even 7 stars. Let's determine how many stars are at hotels.
Hotels without category
This is the most budget place for overnight. In the worst case, it can be a bar of the bar, where there is a lot of beds. This category includes hostels.
Most likely, you will have to sleep next to unfamiliar people. Occasionally, however, in this list there are hotels with a fairly high level of service, but the absence of stars in this case is due to the reluctance of the administration to spend time and money to assign the hotel by the international category.
1 and 2 Star Hotels
This type of hotels is similar to a large hostel, with rooms with an area of \u200b\u200bno more than 8-10 m2. Amenities are likely to be located on the floor (their number is determined at the calculation of one bathroom for five rooms).
In the rooms - minimum of furniture. The territory does not provide pools, restaurants, parking lots. In some cases, a bar or dining room can work.
If the bed linen will change, then not more than once a week. This is the most budget accommodation option for unpretentious tourists who plan most of the time to carry out the territory of the hotel.
3 stars
Hotels in this category rooms are more in the area, and the level of service is higher. Be sure to eat refrigerators, minibars, bathrooms. It is envisaged that bedding and towels are changing every day. On request, you will be given a hairdryer and iron. On the territory, as a rule, there is a restaurant, parking, sometimes even a swimming pool.
4 stars
Rooms ranging from 14 m2. The level of service and comfort in such hotels is higher. In the bathroom, you must have toiletries: soap, shampoo, shower gel that change every day.
Safety deposit box, table, wardrobe, TV, air conditioning. Linen change and cleaning are also held every day. Territory (if it comes to resort hotels) - This is a whole complex where parking lots, saunas, swimming pools, tennis courts, restaurants and cafes, separate infrastructure for children. The hotels of the category "4 stars" provides food delivery service to the room.
5 stars
Rooms are distinguished by a larger area. There must be at least four restaurants with various cuisine. Visitors have a number of privileges, can use the infrastructure for free.
6-7 stars
Very high class of hotels, where one day of stay can cost from several thousand dollars. For this money you will receive both royal apartments and 24-hour service with the services of a personal cook, driver, butler. All over the world there is no more than a dozen hotels of this class.
Classification of rooms in the hotels of Turkey
Along with hotels, which are classified from 1 to 5 stars, club hotels (Holliday Village) or tourist villages are found in many everywhere.
This is a kind of separate "caste". For their designation, HV1 or HV2 abbreviations are used. Settlement takes place in cottages or bungalows. Such pensions are distinguished by a large territory with many trees, colors and other vegetation.
HV1 - corresponds to hotels with 4-5 stars, but the apartments are not very large in the area. HV2 - corresponds to hotels with 3-4 stars.
Most recently in this region appeared an additional class of hotels, which is indicated by the letter "S", which means "special".
For the most part, such pensions are located in historical places (for example, they can often be found in the list) and correspond to 4-5 stars. They differ in small numbers, a few employees, a small restaurant and lack of a pool.
Classification of hotels in Greece
In some cities and at certain still preserved its own classification of hotels, which is indicated by Latin letters: L, A, B, C, D, E.

- De luxe or L - corresponds to 5 stars;
- A - corresponds to 4 stars;
- B - corresponds to 3 stars;
- C - corresponds to 2 stars;
- D, E - corresponds to 1 star.
Deciphering room category in hotels
If you book a room and the comfort is very important for you, the view from the window and the type of accommodation is very important, it is worth dealing with that there are cuts and expressions that are called room categories in the hotel.
At the selection stage, it should be decided that it is especially important for you: a landscape that opens from the window, an extra bed or you want to live a big cheerful company. Or maybe all the parameters taken together?
When booking the hotel, the main role is played by the goal, the duration of your journey, as well as the stay in the hotel.
For example, if you are going to spend just a few days in any country or city, it is enough to order a Standard Room number. But if you are planning a longer trip, you should pay attention to the apartment with a high level of comfort.
Below is given decoding designations that indicate the features of hotel numbers.

If a child is over five years old and it takes an extra bed or a sofa for him, then the fee for it is about half of the cost per adult tourist. Children over 12 years old are considered adults, so they will have to pay the full cost.

Types of rooms in the hotels of Turkey and Egypt, as well as their decoding, are no different from the generally accepted. And the associated frequent issues of tourists are just a delusion caused by the fact that in these countries the reality often does not correspond to seen in the photo.
In fact, there are only small differences in the area of \u200b\u200bthe room and its decoration. For example, "standard" is usually designed for modest, but comfortable rest one man. In Turkey and Egypt, they make them spacious, for two, and sometimes with the ability to settle an additional child or even two.
