Let’s check it out. Family Suites are basically two connecting hotel rooms that have been reconfigured into a “suite”. The basic differences between a Family Suite and two stand hotel rooms are: The beds – Standard rooms have 2 full size or 1 king bed. Family Suites have 1 queen bed, and a mix of sleeper sofas and chairs. Occupancy – Two Standard rooms can sleep up to 8. Family Suites sleep up to 6. Dining – Standard rooms have a refrigerator and a coffee maker. Family Suites have a kitchenette area with a refrigerator, microwave and coffeemaker. Sitting area – Standard rooms have a small table and 2 chairs in each room. Family Suites have a “living room” with a couch, and a easy chair. Room – Family Suites seem a lot roomier because of the open space but in actuality the room size is exactly the same as two Standard rooms. Price – Typically Family Suites are a little more expensive than 2 Standard rooms.
