Trivago business report: The top Hotel amenities to attract every type of traveler

What are the best hotel amenities to offer your guests? The answer will depend entirely on who your guests are, businessblog.trivago.com notes in its latest report:

Because apart from room quality and cleanliness, which are absolute musts for all types of travelers, guest expectations and needs can vary greatly. To meet them, you’ll need to identify the traveler types you’re attracting.

Visitors’ Profile in your Hotel Manager PRO account will tell hoteliers if their trivago traveler audience is made up of business travelers, vacation travelers, or weekend travelers. These insights will help them understand the type of traveler interested in booking with you — and the list below will help them equip their hotel with the amenities that’ll meet their needs. (Tip: breakfast is another top-requested amenity across the board).

There are also suggestions of the special offers to promote to each type of traveler to secure their business.
