Ramada Hotels: Ramada Limited, Accommodations And Swimming Pools

Ramada Worldwide is a brand of hotels owned by the Wyndham Worldwide Corporation. Ramada Hotels can be found in nearly 900 locations around the world in more than 25 countries. Accommodations are mid-range in price and the Ramada hotel is known for continuity between locations and affordability.
Ramada ranks their hotels in tiers, the most basic service in the US and Canada is Ramada Limited. At this level, the Ramada Limited, Ramada Hotels offer a free continental breakfast, high-speed internet and most have swimming pools. The breakfast includes coffee and juice, fresh fruit, yogurt, cold and hot cereal, hot items and baked goods. Ramada Limited hotel rooms are typical of affordable chain hotels across the US. The rooms are clean and offer the basic necessities but the overstuffed pillows and synthetic-fiber quilts are not the most comfortable bedding. Uninspired prints on the walls and faux-wooden furniture leave the view outside the window much more interesting than the room's decoration. Ramada Limited hotel rooms may not be interesting to look at, but they are simple, functional and affordably priced.
The hotels increase their services as they move up in the tier. Ramada Inns have on-site restaurants or a-la-carte food service in addition to all the amenities available at the Ramada Limited level. Ramada Plaza is the highest tier for a Ramada hotel in the US. Ramada Hotels at this level have a contemporary appearance and unique decor in addition to further service.
Higher tiers of Ramada Hotels can be found outside the United States. These luxurious accommodations are well suited for both business and pleasure. Amenities can include oversized rooms, meeting and banquet halls, golf courses, fitness centers, concierge service, tennis, lounges or restaurants along with the basic services.
