Last year in particular, the term hurkle durkle did the rounds on social media. It’s a concept for which the Scots have been using these two words since 1808. What does it mean? Spending a little time in bed after waking up. For example, by reading, drinking coffee or simply relaxing. The aim is to start the morning gently and reduce stress. Here we have dealt in detail with the question “What is Hurkle Durkle”.
This article is about which accommodation is particularly suitable for Hurkle Durkle in a hotel. For example, because the view is so magnificent or the coffee in the room is particularly good. The endearing morning ritual works particularly well in these hotels.
Onduli Ridge, Namibia


The Onduli Ridge Lodge in Namibia consists of just six suites. But these have it all. The special architecture allows the bathroom and bedroom to merge almost seamlessly with nature. This makes it possible to go on safari from bed in the morning. With a bit of luck, you will not only have a view of Namibia’s highest mountain, the Brandberg, but also of the impressive natural surroundings and one or two desert animals. Perhaps even the eponymous giraffe?

The Muraka, Conrad Maldives/Maldives


The Conrad Maldives is known for many highlights. Among other things, it has its own time zone, it was the first resort with an underwater restaurant and also the first with an underwater bedroom. This is located in The Muraka, one of the resort’s particularly luxurious villas. When you wake up here in the morning, all you really want to do all day is watch the colorful underwater world through the thick Plexiglas windows. Hurkle Durkle in the hotel meets snorkeling. Either with a glass of champagne or a coffee in your hand. By the way, we reveal what else the resort can do here.

Wake up, push aside the curtains, grab a coffee and then snuggle up in bed again. And all this with a magnificent view of Bangkok’s lifeline, the Chao Phraya: the beautiful Four Seasons in Thailand’s capital makes it possible. Of course, it also plays all the tunes away from and outside the bed. From the varied restaurant concept to the spa. You can’t help but leave here feeling deeply relaxed. The hotel is a real oasis of calm in the chaos of the big city.
