Throughout the world over the last few years many hotels have made the necessary changes to accommodate wheelchair users. Although some have carried out more accessible works aiming to achieve the status of truly being a wheelchair accessible hotel many others have some more way to go to give full access to facilities that wheelchair users want to use.

A wheelchair accessible hotel is not merely one that happens to have a ramp for access at the front but rather the wheelchair accessible hotels that can be labelled as such have put extra thought into the planning and using of the hotel, thus making a wheelchair accessible route through all parts.

Making bedrooms wheelchair accessible, dining rooms wheelchair accessible receptions wheelchair accessible and all other parts including gardens and swimming pool areas, even if they have not actually carried out any wheelchair accessible works into the swimming pool. But those who carry the badge of being wheelchair accessible hotels have a place on this website www.accessibleaccommodation.com as it is the sign of quality of a hotel where they truly plan their services for all users, those requiring wheelchair access and those who do not.

Wheelchair accessible hotels are found worldwide, possibly USA having more than most others. But all hotels built in very recent years should have taken into account wheelchair users and that of all guests when designing and building the hotel so the chances are that the most modern of hotels will or at least should comply with the full requirements so that they can call themselves wheelchair accessible hotels.
