At-a-glance: how the three room types differ
The key difference among Standard Room, Country with Sofa Bed Room, and Country Room with Sofa Bed is bed configuration and seating/living space.
If you need a sofa bed for children or extra guests, choose one of the Country rooms; if you want a straightforward sleeping-only layout, choose a Standard Room.
- Standard Room — 1 King Bed or 1 Queen Bed or 2 Double Beds (no sofa bed).
- Country with Sofa Bed Room — 1 Queen Bed + 1 Double Sofa Bed.
- Country Room with Sofa Bed — 1 King Bed + 1 Double Sofa Bed.
| Room type | Fixed bed | Sofa bed |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Room | King or Queen or 2 Doubles | No |
| Country with Sofa Bed Room | Queen | Double Sofa Bed |
| Country Room with Sofa Bed | King | Double Sofa Bed |
Who each room is best for
Standard Room suits solo travelers, couples, or two adults who don’t need a pullout sofa. You can select a King, Queen, or two Double beds depending on availability and preference.
Country with Sofa Bed Room is a practical choice for small families or groups who want a separate sleeping option for an extra adult or child without booking a suite.
- Standard Room: business travelers, couples, visitors on a short stay.
- Country with Sofa Bed Room: small families, parent + child, two adults + one child.
- Country Room with Sofa Bed: couples who want a king bed plus space for an extra guest on the sofa bed.
| If you are... | Recommended room |
|---|---|
| Solo traveler or couple with no extra guests | Standard Room |
| Traveling with one child or need extra sleeping space | Country with Sofa Bed Room |
| Prefer a king bed and a sofa bed for a third guest | Country Room with Sofa Bed |

Booking tips and when to request a specific room
If a specific bed configuration matters (King vs Queen vs two Doubles, or the presence of a sofa bed), request the exact room type by name when you book and confirm at check-in — the property’s historic layout means rooms can vary.
If you plan to use the spa facilities, make treatment reservations before arrival and arrive at least 30 minutes early for spa appointments to check in and use the facilities.
- Ask for the room type by name: Standard Room, Country with Sofa Bed Room, or Country Room with Sofa Bed.
- Book spa treatments ahead of arrival; spa front desk recommends arriving 30 minutes early.
- Confirm bed configuration and any accessibility needs directly with the hotel before arrival.
| Request | Why it helps |
|---|---|
| Confirm room type by name at booking | Avoid surprises on bed layout or availability of a sofa bed |
| Reserve spa treatments in advance | Spa appointments require reservations and early arrival is advised |
| Ask about accessibility or special needs | Property lists some wheelchair-accessible rooms but layouts vary |
