First, I had to get over the idea that three-star rooms can cost more than $200/night. So, we upped our budget to $250. &lt;p&gt;All the big travel websites such as Expedia, Hotels.com and Orbitz can help you find lodging within your budget and in the area you want to be in. Since I don’t know that much about New York hotels, I spent extra time reading reviews. Here is a short list of tips and the hotel we ended up booking.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://travel.latimes.com/daily-deal-blog/?p=1229"&gt;Read more...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://www.budget-boutique-hotels.com/2008/02/finding-new-york-city-boutique-hotels.html</link><author>Hotel Net Biz</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543268883115902228.post-5065749816681716468</guid><pubDate>Wed, 06 Feb 2008 15:24:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-02-06T16:26:20.153+01:00</atom:updated><title>Nylo: Boutique and budget hotel in Plano</title><description>By David Ninh&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Took a quick tour of &lt;a target="_blank" href="http://www.nylohotels.com/"&gt;Nylo&lt;/a&gt;, the newest boutique hotel up north.

Interiors are designed by &lt;strong&gt;Stephane Dupoux&lt;/strong&gt;, whose past projects include award-winning nightspots in Europe, Miami and New York, most notably Buddha Bar and Cielo.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;It's a design-minded hotel without the driven up prices -- rooms range from $110 for a single and go up to $170 for a suite per night. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href="http://shopping.beloblog.com/archives/2007/12/nylo_boutique_and_budget_hotel.html"&gt;Read more...&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://www.budget-boutique-hotels.com/2008/02/nylo-boutique-and-budget-hotel-in-plano.html</link><author>Hotel Net Biz</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543268883115902228.post-470128064809576553</guid><pubDate>Wed, 06 Feb 2008 15:18:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-02-06T16:20:59.290+01:00</atom:updated><title>Paris Boutique Hotel For $88</title><description>By Michelle Snow&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The chic Paris boutique Hotel Metropolitan is offering amazing rates for the month of March...up to 60% off regular rates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For 68 Euro per night, you can nab one of the 58 rooms at this hotel which is not only near many of Paris' most popular attractions, but also has views of the Eiffel Tower.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://budgettravel.suite101.com/blog.cfm/paris_boutique_hotel_for_88"&gt;Read more...&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://www.budget-boutique-hotels.com/2008/02/paris-boutique-hotel-for-88.html</link><author>Hotel Net Biz</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543268883115902228.post-6092099288820630305</guid><pubDate>Wed, 06 Feb 2008 15:00:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-02-06T16:09:46.794+01:00</atom:updated><title>Chic and Cheap London Hotel</title><description>By Mike Gerrard&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogContent"&gt;&lt;h2 class="contentDescription"&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The Hoxton Hotel shows that it is possible to find a cheap hotel in London, in the funky Hoxton neighborhood, with 205 rooms from as little as £59 per night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I've been hearing good things about London's new Hoxton Hotel, where you can get rooms for as low as £59 a night (US$112). It's a place that seems to combine the approach of a boutique hotel with the no-frills of a budget airline. And like low-cost airlines, the sooner you book, the better chance you have of getting a bargain rate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://ukirelandtravel.suite101.com/blog.cfm/chic_and_cheap_london_hotel"&gt;Read more...&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://www.budget-boutique-hotels.com/2008/02/chic-and-cheap-london-hotel.html</link><author>Hotel Net Biz</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543268883115902228.post-3076661465374300867</guid><pubDate>Wed, 06 Feb 2008 14:50:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-02-06T15:53:26.600+01:00</atom:updated><category domain='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#'>Southeast Asia hotel</category><category domain='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#'>Veronica Hotel</category><category domain='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#'>Bangkok</category><title>Veronica Residence Boutique Hotel</title><description>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.budget-boutique-hotels.com/uploaded_images/veronica_residence_dining-714323.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://www.budget-boutique-hotels.com/uploaded_images/veronica_residence_dining-714321.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a title="Veronica Residence Hotel Reservation" href="http://www.excelloz.com/Bangkok/hotel-Veronica_Residence_Boutique_Design.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Veronica Residence&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; is quite unique, especially in the area of &lt;a title="Bangkok Hotels" href="http://www.excelloz.com/Asia/Thailand/Bangkok.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bangkok&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; where it is loocated. Ratchadaphisek Road is a street in the North of Bangkok that is quickly becoming more and more important. The subway that goes along it has done its part to boost the streets popularity for business as well as for living. Ratchadaphisek is also home to several budget and luxurious hotels including the &lt;a title="Swissotel Le Concorde Reservation" href="http://www.excelloz.com/Bangkok/hotel-Swissotel_Le_Concorde.html"&gt;Swissotel Le Concorde&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;a title="Emerald Hotel Bangkok Reservation" href="http://www.excelloz.com/Bangkok/hotel-Emerald.html"&gt;Emerald Hotel&lt;/a&gt; or the &lt;a title="Chaphya Hotel Reservation" href="http://www.excelloz.com/Hotel/Search.php"&gt;Chaophya Hotel&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Veronica Residence&lt;/strong&gt; takes a different approach. It calls itself a “Boutique Hotel” and this is probably a very fitting description as the size of the hotel is smaller and it has a very untypical design. Veronica Residence puts great emphasis on the design of its public areas and guest rooms which are all stylish and very modern.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.excelloz.com/blog/tag/boutique+hotel"&gt;Read more...&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://www.budget-boutique-hotels.com/2008/02/veronica-residence-boutique-hotel.html</link><author>Hotel Net Biz</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543268883115902228.post-2987770665476000413</guid><pubDate>Wed, 06 Feb 2008 14:47:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-02-06T15:48:53.752+01:00</atom:updated><category domain='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#'>Southeast Asia hotel</category><category domain='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#'>boutique</category><category domain='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#'>Singapore</category><title>Hotel 1929, Singapore</title><description>&lt;strong&gt;Hotel 1929 in Singapore&lt;/strong&gt; has a bit of a strange name you might think but the name stems from the fact that &lt;a title="Hotel 1929" href="http://www.excelloz.com/Singapore_City/hotel-Hotel_1929.html"&gt;Hotel 1929&lt;/a&gt; consists of 5 adjacent shop houses that were built, you guessed right, in the year 1929. &lt;p&gt;The whole hotel doesn’t really fit into Singapore’s super modern hi-tech architecture cityscape but this is exactly what makes the Hotel 1929 Singapore so attractive.

Or, is your idea of a hotel stay more along the lines of your average &lt;a href="http://www.discoversd.com/hotels/courtyard-by-marriott/612.html"&gt;Marriott&lt;/a&gt;?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;For most, the decision is one part budget and one part amenities. So, looking at &lt;a href="http://www.san-diego.us/hotels.htm"&gt;San Diego hotels&lt;/a&gt; classified by price and by geographical location, then comparing boutique hotels in San Diego to chain hotels in San Diego we find that prices and amenities can vary quite a bit.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;San Diego&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Hotel Prices:&lt;/strong&gt; Expect to spend $160-450 for quality rooms (again, we're not talking &lt;a href="http://www.hobotraveler.com/"&gt;travelers on a budget&lt;/a&gt; here).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Popular Amenities at Hotels in San Diego: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;24 Hour Room Service or Extended Hours Room Service&lt;/em&gt; - This can be a huge factor for some travelers and many smaller boutique hotels don't offer this. It's too costly for them to keep a kitchen staff later or 'round the clock. Trendy hotels that offer this should definitely get a couple bonus points!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;a href="http://sandiegobloggers.com/boutique-hotels-vs-chain-hotels-in-san-diego.html"&gt;Read more...&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://www.budget-boutique-hotels.com/2008/02/trendy-boutique-hotels-vs-chain-hotels.html</link><author>Hotel Net Biz</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543268883115902228.post-5042364590012962253</guid><pubDate>Tue, 05 Feb 2008 15:39:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-02-05T16:39:24.346+01:00</atom:updated><title>Test</title><description>Test</description><link>http://www.budget-boutique-hotels.com/2008/02/test.html</link><author>Hotel Net Biz</author></item></channel></rss>
