I always like to start with something personal, so please bear it with me!

I have lots of experience with hotels and resorts. Back in my childhood days, my parents always used to plan their vacations with my sister and me. We were both under 12, yet we had been to several hotels. Although we never had any crappy experiences, there was always one problem: no one could sleep at night. And, the oddness of it was that there was never any problem with the accommodations. It’s not that we were living in tiny rooms and had to adjust to the “amenities.” In fact, we were always staying at beautiful, luxurious hotels with very nice rooms and amenities I didn’t expect at that price; there were super comfy beds and posh robes in the washrooms.

We always opted for all-inclusive holiday packages that include a wide range of activities and spa treatments. So, in short, our days were very relaxing, rejuvenating and very enjoyable but then the nights would be spent watching TV, watching the ceiling and tossing and turning around on the bed. Once, a hotel staff referred us to a doctor, but even that didn’t help. At a point, we put a stop to hotels and vacations because we couldn’t cope with always waking up exhausted due to the irregular sleep schedule.

Thankfully, my dad shared this problem with the pastor of our church and the latter advised us to opt for a hotel that’s run by Christian hoteliers. At first, we were not really convinced but today, this became our guiding principle when going on vacations.

When choosing a hotel, you’ll consider the price and the location first. And, then comes the hotel’s amenities, customer reviews, the hotel’s reputation and the parking lot. I know many have their “self-made” policies to conform to, but as a Christian, wouldn’t it be great to stay in a Christian-based hotel?
