There are many 5 star hotels on Longboat Key, but for the budget-minded traveler, there are also a number of 3 star hotels. Why choose a 3 star hotel over a 5 star hotel?
One reason is the price difference. A room at a 3 star hotel will typically cost less than a room at a 5 star hotel. Another reason is that a 3 star hotel will usually have less amenities than a 5 star hotel. This may not be a problem for some people, but others may find that they need all of the amenities that a 5 star hotel offers.
The bottom line is that it is up to the individual to decide what is important to them when choosing a hotel. If a person is looking for luxury and they are willing to pay for it, then a 5 star hotel is the obvious choice. If a person is looking for a good deal and they are not as concerned with luxury, then a 3 star hotel is a good option.
