How Much Will It Cost Us For a 5-Star Hotel Stay?  

There are different kinds of travellers. There are carefree travellers who prefer backpacking and just go with the flow – which makes their experiences more exciting. The accommodation is not that important to these people. In fact, some can happily sleep outside with a sleeping bag and tent.

There are also structured travellers – these travellers are very particular about their itinerary and their accommodation. There is nothing wrong if we make sure our itinerary is followed and our accommodation is secured. This is called order and most likely, the travel will be successful.

What type of traveller are we? If in this case we are the structured one, we have to at least know how much it will cost us for a five star hotel stay. The good news is that there are a lot of five star hotels here in Asia that which are not that expensive. KAYAK.sg, a travel search engine released a list of hotels with average nightly cost. This will give us an idea of how much to spend for a hotel stay.

Here’s the list (from cheapest to the most expensive hotel stays):

• Sri Lanka: For an average nightly rate, Sri Lanka offers SGD 241.
• India: For an average nightly rate, India offers SGD 243.
• Malaysia: For an average nightly rate, Malaysia offers SGD 244.

Now we have an idea how much it will cost us to stay at a five star hotel across Asia. The list might urge us to choose five star hotels when we travel – or not. Hong Kong has the most expensive five star hotel rates but for sure they have the best amenities of them all.

If we still want to pursue budget travelling, we have to look for hostels and inns around.
