New Hampshire's hotels and motels offer a wide variety of services from the basic clean, safe, and friendly motel to the extravagant luxury offered by some New Hampshire hotels. When booking your hotel or motel there are some things that you should always take into account.

1 - Hotel vs Motel What are the real differences?

It can be hard to really pinpoint the differences but most travel experts agree that there are a few ways to tell the difference. First, motels usually consist of a single level or two story (at most) building layout. Plenty of hotels, even some luxury resorts may only be one or two stories, but if it says 'motel' you can be fairly certain that it is no more than two floors tall. Secondly, motel rooms typically have exterior facing rooms. This means that the rooms open to the outdoors rather than to the interior of the hotel. Lastly, motels are typically less expensive, but not always. So keep these factors in mind when you book a room at the Sunshine Motel vs the Moonlight Hotel.

2 - How close is the hotel/motel to the New Hampshire area you want to spend most of your time in?

You may find a great hotel or motel at a great price but you'll have to factor in taxi service or rental car costs of the location of the hotel is well off the beaten path. The best scenario is always to choose a New Hampshire hotel or motel that is as close as possible to the sites and attractions you want to see while on your New Hampshire getaway.Many hotels offer shuttle service to a variety of nearby attractions. Public transportation could be an option for you as well. Even if you already plan to rent a car, why spend precious vacation time driving to and from your hotel. Driving in an unfamiliar city can be very stressful too!
