BackBusiness travel has always been viewed as a vital component of doing business. Even though the pandemic has affected the ways of doing business, business travel remains essential in 2022.
Most employees enjoy travelling because it allows them to get away from their daily work routine. According to a study, 30% of employees would be prepared to accept a lower salary if the job offer provided them with more opportunities to travel.
Business travel is on the rise again, as companies believe that there is no substitute for face-to-face meetings.
With that being said, anyone who regularly goes on business trips for the company or perhaps for their own business knows that business trips can be exciting, and educational but also exhausting and stressful. In addition, the most important task, which is usually overlooked, is where to stay. It is necessary to find a place where you can completely unwind and that is located nearby all the main amenities. That way, you are guaranteed to turn it into a relaxing business trip. And after all, that’s the most important thing, because it’s still a Bleisure trip.
This article will help you combine business and pleasure during your business trip to Gibraltar and how to choose the best business accommodation.
What is a bleisure trip?
Because just working, working, working doesn’t make anyone happy, does it? Bleisure stands for combining business and leisure. In other words: add a bit of leisure to your business trip to Gibraltar. Have dinner at that fancy restaurant you have read so much about or treat yourself to a full breakfast or luxury lunch while reading a magazine or book.
For example, Bistro Point is a fine dining restaurant in Gibraltar within the University of Gibraltar. The delicious menu is created by Michelin-trained chef Ben Hayes and his team. Or how about extending your business trip to see more of Gibraltar? There is a lot to see in Gibraltar. For example, spotting the monkeys, Barbary Macaques, at the rock. Another example is the skywalk, a huge glass platform 340 metres above the Mediterranean Sea where you will have stunning views.
