All work and no play makes a dull vacation.
With these helpful tips, you can transform a boring business trip into a much needed escape from everyday stresses. It’s a little trick we like to call “bleisure” travel, which has business travelers looking forward to their next out-of-town seminar.
No matter where your company sends you next, there is no destination too remote to be the perfect getaway. In fact, some of the smallest towns pack the biggest leisure punch. Talk to the front desk associate at your Best Western to get the inside scoop on the best local attractions.
For many adults and parents, the prospect of a quiet room to read a book or catch up on a favorite TV show is just as good as any beachside resort. When you get free high-speed internet with every stay, the best vacation can happen in the peace and quiet of your own hotel room.
The best thing about traveling for work may be racking up thousands of points as you go. If you’re facing tight timelines and a heavy workload, there might not be much time to relax. Just keep in mind all of the Best Western Rewards® points you’re earning for your next big vacation.
When you’re given the freedom to choose your own accommodations, pick a hotel that puts you where you want to be. Scope out the area before your trip to find out what is within walking distance, like a favorite local bar or the best place to see an incredible beach view. With more than 4,200 Best Western locations worldwide, you don’t have to book the room closest to your meeting.
Vacation can really begin once the work is done. Stay an extra day or two to make the most of your trip. After all, you’re already there!
Beyond the important work meetings, you and your travel buddy are free to enjoy the rest of the trip. Your companion can spend the day exploring while you’re closing deals, and then you can enjoy having someone to celebrate with in the evening.
