On your family vacation, do you value comfort and total relaxation? Nowadays, more than ever, hygiene and safety are a priority. For all your needs to be assured, there are aspects to which you should pay attention when booking your local accommodation in Porto.
First of all, the place where you will be staying must have the Clean & Safe seal and have a range of services and amenities that suits you. If you travel by car, for example, you will need a place to park, if you arrive in the city early in the morning, it may be useful to check-in early, among other needs.
In this article, we have compiled some services and amenities that you should consider when looking for local accommodation for your next trip, whether in Porto or in another city. Enjoy a memorable stay!
1. Transfer Service
The arrival at a new destination is sometimes a moment of some apprehension. Not knowing how the transportation systems work and traveling with several suitcases makes many guests prefer to use a transfer service, which is more comfortable and safer.
When booking your stay, check if the local accommodation company has this service. This will ensure that you arrive on time, wherever you are, to the apartment, to a show, or to the airport to catch your flight home.
The transfer option is available, as a rule, for individuals and groups and is available upon reservation.
2. Luggage Storage
It is essential to have a safe place to leave your luggage while you are out and about in the city, whether because you arrived ahead of time or have some time left before departure.
3. Meals Delivery
For maximum convenience during your stay, meal services at the apartment are very convenient. Always check if the accommodation has breakfast included or if it is possible to have it delivered at the time you want.
At Feel Porto we have two breakfast menus that we deliver to our guests at the desired time. We can also take care of grocery delivery, respecting your shopping list. Fresh fruit, snacks and drinks are the most common requests.
4. Parking
If you travel by car or plan to rent a car to travel on holiday, the existence of a private car park nearby is necessary. This way, you can leave the vehicle safely and use it whenever you want, quickly and comfortably.
5. Cleaning and Laundry Services
The cleaning service ensures your comfort and well-being while traveling and, during a pandemic period, also guarantees greater safety. Do you want someone to take responsibility for keeping the apartment fresh and tidy while you are away? Ask the company to move a cleaning team to the space. This option is usually available on request.
Also, the laundry service usually works along the same lines, taking care of your clothes. Washing and ironing are tasks you will not have to worry about.
6. Access to high-speed Wi-Fi
These days, free Wi-Fi access is highly valued by guests and is an indispensable service. Therefore, the network should be available in all areas of the local accommodation (not just the common areas), with signal strengthened so that there are no gaps.
7. Extended Check-In and Check-Out
Whether you arrive at the apartment too early or are only leaving town at the end of the day, out-of-hours check-in and check-out greatly simplify your stay. Ask the local accommodation company about the possibility of staying before the common check-in hours.
8. Tours and Thematic Experiences
If you want to know in depth the city where you are staying (or a nearby region), tours are a very interesting option that you can consider. Organized on foot, by bus, by boat or in a private van, always in the company of a guide, they are a relaxed and recreational way to witness the main attractions.
Explore also the package of experiences offered by the place where you will be staying. Several local accommodation companies, such as Feel Porto, offer gastronomic and cultural tours and adventure experiences that turn your vacation into an enriching and fun trip.
9. Catering
One of the advantages of choosing to stay in a local accommodation is to enjoy the comfort of a home just for you and yours.
The catering service allows guests to fully enjoy the amenities of the apartment while experiencing a typical gastronomic delight.
This experience is ideal for celebrating a special occasion or enjoying a moment with family and friends!
10. Concierge Service
What if, on your next trip, you don’t have to worry about anything and can just let yourself be guided by those who know the destination like the back of their hand? That’s exactly what the concierge service offered by Feel Porto provides you.
You will have someone dedicated to planning your trip, from the arrival to the return home. The organization and scheduling of transfers, meals, tours and other activities is responsibility of a specialized team. You just have to enjoy it to the fullest!
