Most people who are looking to travel to Austin with kids will undoubtedly be asking the question: Should we stay in a family hotel or take our chances with a more traditional hotel? Truthfully, there is no easy answer, but here are a few points to help make your decision:
First, family hotels tend to be more affordable than traditional hotels. This is especially true if you are looking for a hotel that includes meals and activities as part of your stay.
Second, family hotels are often located in prime locations, close to tourist destinations and activities. This can be a plus for families who want to be able to walk to local attractions rather than having to drive or take public transportation.
Third, family hotels often offer more amenities and activities geared specifically towards kids. This can include everything from swimming pools and playgrounds to organized games and activities.
Finally, family hotels often provide a more relaxed and casual environment, which can be a refreshing change of pace for families who are used to more chaotic environments.
