Five Reasons to Choose a Short-Term Rental Over a Hotel
Why Travelers are Skipping the Front Desk for Cozier, Smarter Stays
When planning a getaway, your accommodations can make or break the trip. While hotels have long been the default, today’s travelers are discovering the magic of short-term rentals—and once you’ve stayed in one, it’s hard to go back.
Whether you’re escaping for the weekend or settling in for a slow stay, here are 5 reasons why a short-term rental (like a stay at Revel Inn) is the way to go:
1. It Feels Like Home—But Better
Forget bland rooms and awkward hallways. Short-term rentals are thoughtfully designed spaces with personality. At Revel Inn, each rental feels like a cozy hideaway—with comfortable furniture, warm lighting, and unique local charm. You can kick your feet up, cook a real meal, or curl up with a book by the fire. It’s everything you love about home, minus the chores.
2. More Space, More Freedom
Say goodbye to squeezing your suitcase next to the bed. Rentals give you room to breathe—with living areas, full kitchens, private patios, and even work nooks. Whether you’re traveling solo, with a partner, or the whole family, you’ll have space to spread out and settle in. No elevator small talk required.
3. Great Value for What You Get
With all the extras included, short-term rentals are often more cost-effective than hotels—especially for longer stays or groups. Full kitchens mean fewer pricey meals out, and private amenities like laundry, parking, and Wi-Fi come standard (not hidden behind fees).
4. Live Like a Local
Why stay in a touristy hotel district when you can be part of a neighborhood? Short-term rentals put you closer to local coffee shops, parks, trails, and hidden gems. You’ll experience the area more authentically and get insider tips from hosts who know the best off-the-beaten-path spots.
5. Memorable Moments, Not Just a Place to Sleep
Staying at a short-term rental turns your trip into a story. Maybe it’s the sun streaming through the windows in the morning, the late-night board game on the back porch, or the peaceful coffee moment by the fireplace. At Revel Inn, we design spaces to create moments you’ll want to remember.
