What does one crown on a hotel plague mean?and translate the textin Britain (Part II)Hostelsof a Youth Hostel Association (YHA) gives you access to a network of hostels throughout England, Wales and Scotland - you dont have to be young or single to use them.the British associations are affiliated to Hostelling International (HI), which has recently changed its name from International Youth Hostel Federation to move away from the emphasis on youth. Some countries immediately adopted the new name, but Britain is still sticking with YHA and SYHA. It makes no difference - YHA, IYHF or HI, its all the same thing.hostels have facilities for self-catering and some provide cheap meals. Advance booking is advisable, especially at weekends, bank holidays and at any time over the summer months. Booking policies vary: most hostels accept phone bookings and payment with Visa or Access (MasterCard) cards; some will accept same-day bookings, although they will usually only hold a bed until 6 pm; some participate in the Book-A-Bed-Ahead scheme; some work on a first come, first served basis.advantages of hostels are primarily price (although the difference between a cheap B&B and an expensive hostel isnt huge) and the chance to meet other travellers. The disadvantages are that some are still run dictatorially, youre usually locked out between 10 am and 5 pm, the front door is locked at 11 pm, you usually sleep in bunks in a single-sex dormitory, and many are closed during winter. Official youth hostels are rarely in town centres; fine if youre walking the countryside or have your own transport.HostelsYHA hostels these are great places to meet other travellers, and they tend to be in town centres rather than out in the sticks, which will suit the non-walking fraternity. New places are opening fast so its worth double-checking with the TIC.AccommodationBritish universities offer their student accommodation to visitors during the holidays: usually for three weeks over Easter and Christmas and from late June to late September. Most such rooms are comfortable, functional single bedrooms but without single supplements. Increasingly, however, there are rooms with private bathroom, twin and family units, self-contained flats and shared houses. University catering is usually reasonable; full-board, half-board, bed and breakfast and self-catering options are available.and Breakfastll find bed and breakfast (B & В for short) in towns, resorts and villages throughout Britain. Some В & Bs are private houses, others are old-world country pubs, yet more are farmhouses. Small B&Bs may only have one room to let, and you can really feel like a guest of the family - they may not even have a sign. All will give you a friendly welcome and a chance to meet the British in their own homes. You get a bedroom, a shared bathroom and an enormous cooked breakfast (juice, cereal, bacon, eggs, sausage, baked beans and toast). More up-market B&Bs have private bathrooms and TVs in each room., which are often just large converted houses with half a dozen rooms, are an extension of the B&B concept. In general, theyre less personal than B&Bs, and more like small budget hotels.s large town and city hotels offer every comfort that youd expect - central heating, bedside radio, TV, coffee-making facilities and private bathrooms. There will be a restaurant and bar (sometimes several) on the premises. An increasing number of hotels have leisure facilities for their guests - swimming pools, tennis courts, small golf courses and saunas for example. Others have local arrangements for pony-trekking, golf, fishing, sailing and so on. Hotels and restaurants are obliged by law to display current prices prominently.Accommodation

There has been an upsurge in the number of houses and cottages available for short-term rent. Staying in one place gives you an opportunity to get a real feel for a region and a community. Outside weekends and July/August, its not essential to book a long way ahead. You may be able to book a long way ahead. You may be able to book through TICs, but there are also excellent agencies who supply glossy brochures to help the decision-making. The tourist boards rate self-catering accommodation with one to five keys; the more keys, the more facilities. One key indicates a property is clean and comfortable, has adequate heating, lighting and seating, a TV, cooker, fridge and crockery and cutlery.
