Hotels are places where people go to rest when they are travelling. They can be a quick stop during a busy day or a more extensive trip. Some hotels are more than just a place to sleep; they can be exceptional.
During a recent stay at the Courtyard by Marriott in Murdoch, Perth, Western Australia, I found myself pleasantly nestled in an unexpected sense of belonging. Departing from the conventional hospitality experience, this establishment provided the anticipated comforts and amenities and enveloped me in a profound warmth akin to a genuine home away from home.
What struck me most about this hotel was its ability to curate an atmosphere of familiarity and comfort amidst the unfamiliarity of travel. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality, a stark contrast to the sterile and impersonal nature of many modern accommodations.
As I settled into my room, I couldn’t help but notice the attention to detail in every aspect of the design and decor. From the cozy bedding to the thoughtful amenities (I can’t forget those brilliant glass water bottles), it was evident that every element had been carefully considered to ensure a delightful stay. But beyond the physical comforts, the intangible sense of belonging truly set this hotel apart.
Whether I was enjoying a meal at the on-site restaurant, unwinding in the inviting communal spaces, or simply relaxing in the privacy of my room, I felt a sense of ease and contentment that is all too rare in the transient world of travel. It was as if I had stumbled upon a hidden gem, a sanctuary amidst the chaos of the outside world.
