Would IBU to book a nice hotel just for me for 1 night in my county? I have spare money and feel like I want a night of luxury where I don't have to make the bed/tidy up too much. Feel like I'm on an a trip. I'm single and haven't been to a hotel in 3 years. Or is that just weird?

If you can afford it then why wouldn't you? It sounds lovely.

Do it! Why not??

It's up to you but why not a
go somewhere you'd like to go and book a hotel? Maybe I'm just jaded from work travel but what I'd like most is a night at home on my own and an epic lay in with no check out time to think about

I really wish I'd done more stuff like this before kids.

My previous next door neighbour used to do this once a month. She didn’t fancy leaving home for long but enjoyed the change. I always saw a difference in her when she got back.

I'm a single parent and DS will be at his Dads. So I do get time to myself at home but in a bit fed up of these same walls. I don't often go out. Just didn't know if it was odd to go to a hotel in my county. The one I really want to go to is fully booked up to 6 months

Choose the best hotel you can afford, bearing in mind that many will have offers in January as it's not the most popular month for tourists/visitors,, and book it for 2 nights so that you get a real break away and the opportunity to explore a different part of your county.

My idea of heaven at the moment would be a quaint village pub known for the quality of its food and accomodation, but I wouldn't say no to a couple of nights pampering in a 4 or 5* star hotel with superlative service.

Yabu- book 2 nights and a massage.

Squidgyflump · 02/01/2020 21:30

Do it. Book it around your birthday if you can and enjoy the luxury

But would you feel bored on your own? Would you happily eat in the restaurant alone or have to order overpriced room service?

I think it’s a nice idea in theory but I know I would end up thinking that I could watch tv in my own bed for free.

If you feel you would really enjoy it-do it.

Definitely - why not! Mini break with yourself!

If you like Miranda she did this, was soooo funny

@spitsandspots during last year I plucked up the courage to go places on my own. I thought I'm single and can't keep staying in because I don't have a OH to do stuff with. I wouldn't mind going alone
