The date of your next business trip is fast approaching? Choosing accommodation in Porto for your business stay can be a headache. You have to make sure you have everything you need to work, you know exactly where you have to go and you book the necessary services so that everything runs smoothly.
Fortunately, we have compiled a simple and useful guide to make the process as easy as possible and ensure that you make the right decision.
4 Tips for choosing accommodation on business trips
1. Keep in mind the location
Naturally, you need to choose accommodation that allows you to travel quickly and comfortably to the workplace. It is also preferable to be close to the stores and services that you will need to use. And even points of interest that you want to visit in your free time.
Research in advance where are the various sites that make up your schedule at the destination. For each accommodation, add an estimate of the time and cost of transport to the equation.
2. Focus on the quality of accommodation and services
As you understand from experience, work can cause some stress. So, don’t let a poor quality stay give you even more worries. Make sure the accommodation offers everything you need to work and relax in a pleasant way.
Do you need ultra-fast Wi-Fi, a phone, a printer, a large desk, a kitchen, a super comfortable mattress? Prepare a list and book the accommodation that checks in all fields.
3. Adapt the choice to the type of trip
Depending on your needs, the ideal accommodation for your business trip may be small or larger in size.
Think about questions like: Will it be a stay just for me or a group? Do I need a large workstation to dispose of all materials and equipment? Will I have to receive colleagues/clients and use one of the rooms as a meeting space? More than just thinking about size, the important thing is that the accommodation provides functionality.
