Bed and Breakfast is also termed as B&B and it is a small accommodation where the guests are given accommodation facilities and breakfast. Bed and Breakfast does not offer any other meal. The term Bed and Breakfast was first used in United Kingdom but nowadays it is used all over the world. Bed and Breakfasts are the private homes having less than 10 bedrooms. These accommodations are used for the commercial purpose.
Bed and Breakfast accommodations are designed very simply to keep their costs low. The guests are generally accommodated in the private rooms and there are private bathrooms in each room. In some of the accommodations the bathrooms can be shared by the guests of two or more private rooms. Rooms are designed to give maximum comfort to the guests. No other meal is served in these rooms and the breakfast is served in the rooms of the guests or in dining rooms.
Most of the Bed and Breakfasts are operated as private and primary businesses of the individuals but some of the individuals are also running this business as a secondary source of income. The costs of this business are very low because most of the owners prepare the breakfast on their own and perform other work of the guest house themselves. In the large Bed and Breakfast the professional staff is hired for cooking and cleaning of rooms. The difference between the large Guest house or Small Hotel and Bed and Breakfast is that there is no highly professional management at Bed and Breakfast. In these guests rooms high standards of services are not offered therefore, Bed and Breakfasts are usually considered as the tertiary business.
There are various ideas which have been introduced in Bed and Breakfasts like floating Bed and Breakfast. The first Floating Bed and Breakfast was introduced in Seattle Washington.
These small guest houses are made in a boat or houseboat and Bed and Breakfast services are offered there. Although Bed and Breakfasts are available all over the world but their services can vary on the basis of the national differences.
Similarly the rules and regulations of Bed and Breakfast also vary in each national jurisdiction. The primary requirement in all Bed and Breakfasts is the safety. Fire sensitive alerts, fire escape plan, smoking detectors and bathrooms are required in all of the Bed and Breakfasts. This shows that all necessities are usually offered in Bed and Breakfasts.
Therefore, we can say that Bed and Breakfasts provide the best options to the travelers who cannot afford the high rates of the hotels and Inns.
