Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Tida, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request a room on a higher floor (above the 3rd floor) to minimize the possibility of street noise from the town centre's main road. The hotel's concrete floors will help reduce any noise that does make it through.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid rooms near the lift as the hotel only has a small lift and it can be slow, causing potential delays during peak hours.

Insider tips

If you're arriving by car, consider requesting a room near the service entrance, making it easier to access your vehicle. However, be mindful of the potential noise from the service area. If you're planning to stay for an extended period, ask about long-term parking options, as the hotel's parking lot may have limited spaces.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
