What does TR stand for?

Tourist Room

TR (Tourist Room) is a hotel industry term for a budget-friendly accommodation option, typically offering basic amenities for cost-conscious travelers. These rooms are often smaller and more simply furnished than standard rooms, prioritizing functionality over luxury. You might find them in budget hotels, motels, or hostels, sometimes with shared bathrooms. Related terms include economy room, standard room, and backpacker accommodation.

Unlike business or deluxe rooms, tourist rooms usually lack extras like minibars, room service, or premium toiletries. They’re common in areas with high tourist traffic, where affordability is key. Some hotels use TR to denote rooms with minimal frills but clean, comfortable basics. Confusion might arise with superior rooms or family rooms, which may offer more space or amenities for a higher price.
