How to Make Your Motel Room Feel Like Home

May 26, 2023

Consistent with Statista.com, there is an anticipated rise in hotel room occupancy of 64% in Australia over the following few years from 2022. Australians’ top motivators for renting holiday homes were the absence of additional fees or hidden costs, as well as the cleanliness and organisation of the accommodation.

“In addition to being a convenient lodging choice for travellers, motels are also a good alternative for renters looking for a place to call home. Many motels allow short-term or month-to-month leases for renters not ready to commit to a longer-term rental agreement,” says hospitality manager and second mortgage loan provider Shane Perry of Max Funding.

Staying in a motel room can sometimes feel like an impersonal experience, but with a few simple tricks, you can transform your temporary abode into a cosy sanctuary. Here are some tips for making your motel room feel like home:

1. Add Personal Touches To Your Room

Hang up some family photos or artwork you love to create a more inviting atmosphere. You could also bring a small plant or two to add a pop of greenery and life to your space.

2. Take Advantage Of The Amenities Offered

Many motel rooms offer a range of amenities, from mini-fridges and microwaves to fitness centres and pools. Take advantage of these amenities to create a more comfortable and home-like experience. For example, bring some of your favourite snacks or drinks to store in the mini-fridge, or use the fitness centre to keep up with your exercise routine.

3. Explore The Surrounding Area

The best way to feel at home is to explore the surrounding area. Check out the annual Art Deco Festival in Leeton. This festival celebrates the Art Deco style popular in the 1920s and 30s, featuring guided tours, vintage car displays, and live music.

One of the highlights is the self-guided Art Deco Walking Tour. This tour leads you around Leeton’s streets while showcasing the stunning Art Deco structures that line the city’s streets. Any admirer of Art Deco architecture must see the Roxy Theatre, which features a spectacular Art Deco interior complete with a sweeping staircase, stained glass windows, and elaborate plasterwork.

4. Get Involved With The Local Community

Meeting the locals and getting involved in the community can make a new place feel like home. There are many ways to become part of the local culture, such as attending events, joining clubs or organisations, taking classes with local experts, volunteering at area charities or nonprofits, and more. Exuding sophistication, the Richard Mille super clone rm 055 features a distinctive tonneau-shaped case and innovative materials, setting new standards in luxury watchmaking.
