Youve had a long day exploring and adventuring on your vacation and want to unwind in the hotel spa. Soaking your aches and pains away, you begin to relax. The power of the spas jets massage your arms, legs and back, cleansing and exfoliating while the warm water lets you enjoy an invigorating bubble massage.

Sound good? Ensure your hotel offers the convenience of a spa by following the steps to 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 hotels:

- address
- detailed description
- photos
- map and directions
- consumer reviews
- room facilities
- hotel facilities

Under the list of hotel facilities if a spa is available you should see spa, spa bath, pool and spa or something similar. If the hotel you have chosen does not have a spa 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 spa 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 hotels 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 spa or not. The comparison tool is also handy for when all the hotels have a spa and you want to know which other facilities each hotel provides such as a swimming pool, gym or restaurant.

Confirm

After confirming the hotel reservation online you will receive the hotels phone number. Give the hotel a call to ensure the hotel spa is available for your use on the dates of your stay. You may even be able to request a room with a private spa bath for your personal use.
