Choosing the right room size
Room size drives guest comfort, the rate you can charge and how many keys fit on your plot. Too small and reviews suffer; too large and you lose rooms and spend more on construction, cooling and cleaning for little extra rate. This tool suggests a planning range from the hotel category, bed type and the furniture you want in the room.
- Budget: compact rooms with a shower-only bathroom and minimal furniture.
- Midscale: room for a queen or king bed, a desk or chair and a proper wardrobe.
- Upscale: seating area, larger bathroom, often a separate shower and vanity space.
- Luxury: generous lounge space, bathtub or walk-in shower and dressing area.
Bathroom and corridor share
The bathroom normally takes 20–25% of the room area. Guests notice bathroom quality more than an extra few square feet in the bedroom, so do not squeeze it. Corridors also cost space: on a typical double-loaded floor, the corridor adds roughly a fifth to each room's footprint, before lifts, stairs and service rooms.
How to use the result
Pick a size near the lower end if your market is price-sensitive and stays are short, and near the upper end for leisure, long stays or family travel. Keep two or three room types with a clear size step between them so upgrades feel worth paying for. Then plug the size into the hotel feasibility calculator and price each type with the room type differential calculator.
Important
These are typical industry planning ranges, not legal minimums. Star classification guidelines, state tourism rules, building bye-laws and brand standards each specify their own minimum room and bathroom sizes, which may change. Confirm the current requirements with your architect before freezing drawings. Mock up one room on site before ordering furniture for the whole floor.
