HotelClub found that no matter what method you try – there is no universal answer to the best method for packing…roiling, scrunching, folding or ‘throw it in and hope for the best’ were just some of the methods we uncovered! It comes down to personal preference (and how big you suitcase is – within airline weight range)! HotelClub Concierge did find on his investigations that we try to pack too much into our suitcases! (We like to be prepared in case of emergencies!).

HotelClub’s Concierge offers some handy tips for those of us who cannot face the chore of packing:

1. Compare your itinerary to the items in your wardrobe to avoid bringing any unnecessary items. Keep it to a minimum. Make your packing hassle-free by mixing and matching tops and bottoms.

2. Accessorize - a scarf or jewellery can dress up an outfit or change its look entirely.

3. Footwear – try to opt for a few pairs of comfortable shoes (in neutral colours) that can be used with interchangeable with your outfits.

4. Check the weather. There are ten-day forecasts from weather bureaus so that you can pack accordingly for summer, winter, autumn or spring!

5. Packing – Sassy travelers have discovered that rolling clothes can often be the best way to maximize space in your suitcase. Don’t fret over the wrinkles and creases, as there will most probably be an iron in your hotel room or an ironing service that you can make use of.

6. Toiletries – try to take sample or small sized bottles of items where possible.

These tips are just a small selection of inside tips that HotelClub has provided to make packing for your next holiday less stressful than previous journeys.
