A boarding house is a great alternative to guest houses

A boarding house is an excellent alternative to an expensive hotel and hotel. It's not a secret for anyone that rest in the resort area is always associated with significant financial costs. The most expensive feature of any resort is the cost of housing. Search for a more affordable option is very long, and boarding houses often go unnoticed in long lists of hotels.

The unpopularity of such institutions is due to several reasons. First, most of the young and solvent population simply do not know what a boarding house is. Secondly, the age of similar resort institutions is already ending. They are replaced by hostels and modern inexpensive hotel complexes consisting of bungalows.

Boarding house - not a sanatorium

This is due to the fact that most people have formed a false opinion about boarding houses. Someone thinks that these are institutions for the recreation of state officials, while others imagine a medical and preventive institution of a sanatorium type. None of these opinions is true.

A boarding house is a guest house, equipped with all the necessary equipment for entertainment. In boarding houses in advance provided a full meal and even a cultural and recreational program. Boarding houses are located in picturesque places, most often in park areas or on the beach. There are no medical and preventive procedures in boarding houses, although they can be included in the cost. This is always negotiated with each client personally, since this is already an additional service not according to the profile of the institution. Often there are unpleasant incidents with guests who do not understand what a boarding house is, and they demand a full-fledged sanatorium service.

Basic healthy options include only the right diet from a professional nutritionist. Based on his testimony, an individual menu is made, which certainly will not be superfluous. The internal regime of boarding houses can not be called strict. It will be more accurate to say that the regime is not there.

Profile specialization of each boarding house - rest and providing entertainment services for guests. A boarding house is not a sanatorium. Similar institutions are common in the Russian Federation, Ukraine, Kazakhstan and other countries of the former Soviet Union. In all other states, this form of providing spa services is extremely rare, because it is recognized as unprofitable.

Full board

Full board is an integral part of almost every boarding house. Roughly speaking, this is a three meals a day on a personal diet. However, in fact, it is much more than just food.

It is generally believed that it is better than full boarding is only food under the "all inclusive" scheme. The boarding house includes not only breakfast, lunch and dinner, but also tea, a free minibar in the room, freshly squeezed juices every morning and even dessert snacks. Not always the boarding house observes this, limiting itself to only providing three meals a day.

Hotels

Unfair owners on booking services indicate instead of the term "hotel" - "boarding house". This is absolutely unacceptable. The matter is that the boarding house though differs from a sanatorium, but nevertheless rest in it carries improving functions. The hotels simply provide accommodation and are not necessarily located in the resort area. Pensions are always well located.

An even bigger problem is that in hotels the food is not provided for in the standard contract. Any power, even the basic, always acts as an additional paid option. In addition, any boarding house has a developed infrastructure, which can rarely be said about hotels.

Infrastructure of boarding houses

The very definition of "boarding house" implies a tourist-health resort complex, which provides a full range of all kinds of services within its profile. In this regard, all the boarding houses were built on a grand scale.

On the territory of almost any boarding house has its own dining room, shops, gyms, swimming pool, cinemas, kitchens, tourist offices, museums and much more. Also on the territory of such institutions there are often huge park areas and objects of architectural heritage. The boarding houses themselves can also be an architectural heritage.
