Most travelers today will be faced with the option of either staying at a bed and breakfast Sussex or a hotel. The choice of either is always depended on your specific needs. If you want to have a 'home away from home' experience, then a bed and breakfast would be your best bet. On the flip side of the coin, if you want to take advantage of corporate amenities and often a convenient location, a hotel would be your best bet.

However, most bed and breakfasts today are giving hotels a run for their money since most of them today are strategically located near such things as airports and central business districts to help make visitor experience convenient and easy.

Today, most beds and breakfasts are located near roadways or major airports to facilitate convenient commuting. One thing though that is common between these two types of accommodation is the fact that they both provide secure lodging for their visitors. Some of the notable differences though include:-

Most hotels are always part of a chain, which always guarantee a certain consistency level, although it can feel a bit corporate or sterile. On the other hand, a bed and breakfast is usually operated and owned independently, as most are always renovated private homes. As a result, a bed and breakfast will always have this intimate atmosphere over a hotel which is designed to accommodate large groups of business travelers and tourists who many not necessarily have the same tastes and preferences.

The other notable difference between these two is the staffing. Since hotels operate on large scale basis, they will need larger staffing compared to bed and breakfasts. Hotel staffs are always tasked with such things as washing bed linens, cleaning rooms, operating banquet halls and restaurants, checking guests in and out, and providing the much needed entertainment.

As a result, guest may not get enough attention or even enough time knowing the staff, since most work on shifts. As for bed and breakfast, not only are guests going to enjoy personalized services and great amenities that lack in a typical hotel, because most beds and breakfast maintain a significantly smaller staff, they will get to socialize with their guests making them feel more at home.

Also notable is the fact that food served in a bed and breakfast will often be gourmet quality, unlike that prepared in a typical hotel setting. Because the general pace of a bed and breakfast is much slower than that of a large hotel, it can turn mealtimes into a more leisurely affair. Further, you can take advantage of the amenities offered and prepare your own meals, which can significantly cut down your expenses by a whopping 50%.

By and large, a bed and breakfast Sussex is much more affordable compared to a hotel in the sense that there are so many amenities available at a BB that are sure to add on cost if one were to use them while on the hotel. There is also the all-too familiar feeling of being home, indeed a feeling that can make your time in Sussex very fulfilling.
