You’re away on business and have an important meeting or a hot date the following day which you want to look your best for. The suit you want to wear is crushed from the flight and you need it dry cleaned. You ask at reception where the nearest dry cleaner is and they tell you the closest one is across town.
Does this sound familiar? It’s not really convenient is it? Make the dry cleaning process a lot easier with a well researched hotel reservation.
Researching your hotel reservation
The quickest and easiest way to find hotels at your destination is to go online and visit a hotel reservation website. Do a search for the city you are traveling to and you will be presented with a list of available hotels in that area.
Narrowing down by facility
You should then choose a hotel that appeals to you and click for more information. Amongst the detailed information on the hotel will be the hotel’s:
- address - detailed description - photos - map and directions - consumer reviews - room facilities - hotel facilities
Under the list of hotel facilities if dry cleaning is available at the hotel you should see “dry cleaning”, “dry cleaner” or something similar. If the hotel you have chosen does not have a dry cleaning service then you should go back to the search results page and choose another hotel.
Compare hotels by facility
Another method to find hotels with a dry cleaning service is to choose three of your favorite hotels from the search results and compare the three hotels side-by-side. You can do this by ‘ticking’ the box next to each hotel’s listing in the search results then clicking the “Compare” button at the bottom of the page. This will display a list of the most popular facilities with travelers.
If the facility is available at a hotel, a ‘tick’ will be displayed next to that facility. You can then compare whether each hotel has a ‘tick’ next to “dry cleaning” or not. The comparison tool is also handy for when all the hotels have a dry cleaning service and you want to know which other facilities each hotel provides such as a swimming pool, spa or cocktail bar.
Confirm
After confirming the hotel reservation online you will receive the hotel’s phone number. Give the hotel a call to tell them what time you will be arriving to ensure that the hotel has dry cleaning currently available to its guests. You will also want to know how long the dry cleaning process takes so you know when you will be able to pick up your newly pressed suit.
