Double-double: these rooms have two double beds (sometimes two queen beds) and are meant to accommodate two to four people, especially families traveling with young kids.
The beds in a double room are usually two single beds pushed together, but they can also be one large bed (a queen or king size). In the United Kingdom, there are also rooms called twin rooms, which have two single beds, but these are usually for people who are travelling together and want their own beds.
The Double is also called a Full and is larger than a Twin but smaller than a Queen. We usually book rooms with Queen size beds but the website makes it sound as though the Doubles are larger. The rooms are larger and the beds appear larger in the photo.
Occupancy-based hotel room typesA single room is intended to sleep one person and most likely has one king or queen bed in the room. Double rooms, sometimes called double-double rooms, have two separate beds. While some double rooms have two full-sized beds, others may have queens or kings.
Most hotels price their rooms as doubles or family rooms and don't discount them if they are only occupied by one person. This is justified by the hotel because they lose money with one occupant as the cost of provisions and cleaning is still the same, regardless of how many people stay in the room.
Murphy beds, also known as wall beds, are becoming increasingly popular in the hospitality industry. These beds are designed to fold up into a wall or cabinet, providing guests with more space during the day. This innovative bed design offers several advantages for hotel owners and benefits for hotel guests.
In North America, very few hotels offer a lower rate for single occupancy. The rate is the same whether it's for one or two guests. Even in places where they do offer a single bed, it's certainly not as low as HALF the price of a room with two beds. It might be 10% cheaper.
