Medical Tourism – Your Hotel Accommodations

The hotel stay is an integral part of the medical tourism experience and should not be overlooked. Once released from the overseas hospital, you will most likely proceed to a hotel to continue your recuperation before flying home. On average, the typical length of time spent in a hotel post-op is between 7 to 14 days, of course depending on the procedure performed. The price, amenities, comfort, security and proximity to the hospitals vary substantially in all the different medical travel destinations.

If you are working with a reputable medical tourism agency, they have hand selected the hotels that they offer for the purposes of recuperation. Check with your agent to insure that the hotels that they are offering meet all the criteria that are important to you, and even better, check to see if that have personally stayed there. Chances are, if your agent has been in business long enough to have developed a good reputation, they have had many clients that have stayed in their hotel affiliates, meaning that they have more bargaining power to insure that any dissatisfaction you encounter will be dealt with immediately. Keep in mind that the majority of your stay will likely be in the hotel, so you don’t want to overlook this important factor
