Is there anything better than a spontaneous weekend getaway? And ChangiHotels’ has awesome rates to boot!
So you plan your weekend trips years in advance just so that it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg? Ok, we exaggerate, but you know what we mean – in reality, we all want to be able to book an impromptu trip and snag an awesome stay without breaking the bank. If you want to have your cake and eat it too, ChangiHotels promises unmissable rates for your next stay.
That sounded pretty tempting to us, so we combed through ChangiHotels’ extensive spread for some trip inspo and ideas. We hear they recently updated their platform, adding 300,000 new properties and 5000 destinations, so you can imagine how long we spent daydreaming about our next escape!
Some of our fave holidays are the spontaneous getaways that we take for a spot of relaxation over an uneventful weekend. Want in? Here are our top three picks:
Bangkok
Ornate shrines, street eats and shopping sprees are all the convincing we need to hop on a flight to this city. Our Bangkok jaunts range from an R&R trip (of retail therapy and spas), to a full-on cultural exploration (from the giant swing at Wat Suthat to the golden peaks of the Temple of the Emerald Buddha). Regardless of where you are on the spectrum, you won’t be exploring this city just once. So hop on a tuk tuk and off you go!
Bali
We love Bali and we can’t lie. From watercolour sunsets to gorgeous hikes, it’s no surprise that this Indonesian island is always top of mind when we’re itching for a quick weekend getaway. If you’re anything like us (all about recharging by means of food and a day by the shore), you’ll be planning a cafe and beach-hopping trip to ease your mind from the stresses of the city. Throw in a massage or two and you’ll be in peak relaxation mode.
Kuala Lumpur
Our neighbouring country is home to numerous destinations for spontaneous escapes, and Kuala Lumpur is a forever favourite. See: Batu Caves. This limestone hill with vibrant steps lead up to caves that house Hindu shrines, and is definitely an attraction you have to see IRL. Of course, there’s also plenty of eats and retail therapy to be had in the city. Whether you find your peace in a cave or a mall, this is the destination to be.
