Sgl - how to understand this? Dbl - what is this? Types of accommodation in hotels and their interpretation

Going on vacation, business trip, just to another city or country, we in most cases choose our hotel as a place of residence. And when choosing a number on the websites of travel agencies or the hotels themselves, there are always different signs like sgl, trpl, dbl. What is it? What is the difference between numbers? These questions will help to understand this article.

Organized tourism, as a separate industry, appeared in 1841. This is associated with the establishment of Thomas Cook the first travel agency. At the same time, there was introduced a single system of classification of rooms in hotels.

Some regions (as, for example, Asia or Europe) may have their own distinctive features, and therefore their classification system may have its own nuances. But in the majority it is very universal and almost always suitable for all countries and cities.

Therefore, when you see different abbreviations, and you have questions: "Sgl - how to understand this? Dbl - what is this? Apt - what is the feature? "- just open the decryption, and everything will become very clear.

So, the transcript:

ADLT (Adult) - the adult.

CHLD (Child) is a child.

INF (Infant) - a child of up to two years.

Sometimes this is indicated separately, in the description of the numbers next to the abbreviation. It will be easier to understand: for example, if ADLT + CHLD is written in DBL, what does it mean - an adult and a child in a room for two. But in most cases an adult is always meant. If necessary, you can check with the tour operator or the hotel.

STD (Standart) - number of the standard size.

Superior is a room with an area larger than STD.

Suite - a room that is larger than STD, and with improved facilities (it can include a living room and a separate bedroom).

Family Room - room in which the family can live (it can be a two-room family).

Studio - room with a room and a small kitchen in it.

APT (Apatrments) - two / three-room suite with kitchen. There may also be one or 2 bedrooms (1 BDRM / 2 BDRM).

Luxe / De Luxe - suite with a higher level of comfort.

Honeymoon Room - a room specially for newlyweds.

BGL (Bungalow) / Cottage / Cabana - bungalow (small detached house) / cottage / cottage on the beach.

Corner Room - number in the corner part.

Balcony - room with a balcony.

Business - a number equipped with a computer, printer, fax.

Connected is a number adjacent to the neighbor.

Duplex is a two-storey room.

President - the number of the presidential class (are considered the most luxurious rooms).

ROH (Run Of House) - check-in on arrival.

SGL (Single) - number calculated for one person (sometimes referred to as "SGL placement").

DBL (Double) - a room designed for two people (one double bed, sometimes referred to as "DBL accommodation").

DBL + EX BED (Extra bed) - one bed for a child was added to the DBL room.

TWN (Twin) - room with double accommodation (two single beds).

TRPL (Triple) is a triple room.

It's always very convenient to have decryption at hand, as you can immediately understand if, for example, dbl is indicated, that this is a room with a double bed, and if it costs EX BED - that an extra bed for the child is added.

There is also a distribution of rooms by type from the window:

BV (Beach view) - view from the room to the beach area.

CV (City view) - view from the room to the city part.

GV (Garden view) - to the part with a garden.

MV (Mountain view) - view from the room on the mountainous terrain.

RV (River view) - view from the room to the area with the river.

SV (Sea view) - to the sea coast.
