Majutushooned

Majutushooned, often translated as accommodation buildings or lodging facilities, are structures designed or adapted to provide temporary shelter to people. This broad category encompasses a wide range of establishments catering to diverse needs and budgets. Common examples include hotels, which offer private rooms and various services; hostels, typically providing dormitory-style beds for budget travelers; guesthouses and bed and breakfasts, which often feature smaller, more intimate settings with breakfast included; and apartment hotels, combining the amenities of a hotel with the self-catering facilities of an apartment.

Beyond these, the term can also extend to holiday homes, vacation rentals, and even more basic forms of shelter like campsites or caravan parks. The primary function of a majutushoone is to offer a safe and comfortable place for individuals or groups to stay, whether for leisure, business, or other purposes. They vary significantly in size, scope of services, and the level of privacy and comfort they provide. The management and operation of these facilities are crucial for the tourism and hospitality industries, impacting both traveler experiences and local economies.
