International travelers are often perplexed when they booked a twin room in Europe. There is plenty of twin room or double bed options on hotel booking sites in Europe. You may confuse this as one single bed with the size of a double bed frame. Yet, this is not the case. When you clicked twin rooms on booking sites, you will get two beds in one room. Meaning, two separate beds, and mattresses are waiting in the room. Twin rooom in most European hotels means two separate beds in a room. They are separated by bed side table or a night lamp. It is not the standard western twin room most of us know. Europe has a different definiton of twin room than other countries. The bed size European hotels refer is not the standard American size. When you book a hotel in Europe, always ask what kind of double bed the hotel has. Otherwise, you will see yourself pushing two beds together to get the ‘double bed’ you have in mind. Another peculiar thing you will notice is the bedding system in Europe. Duvets are normal in European countries. Yet, unlike in America, you only get one duvet in a room. In Europe, just like the twin beds, there are two duvets as well. It seems to be a bit strange for others, but this kind of hotel room system is completely normal in Europe. So, when you visit the continent, do not be surprised by this peculiarity. If you want to make sure your sleeping situation in European hotels, you can always call or write to them. You can ask about the specifics and what you are getting in the booking.
