10 Must-Have Items For A Relaxing Hotel Staycation In The City

 10 Must-Have Items For A Relaxing Hotel Staycation In The City

Image: Unsplash

Need a break but have a limited budget, time, and energy for a proper vacation?

Thank God for staycations where you can spend a short break in your home city, staying somewhere else than at home be it a boutique or luxury hotel, resort, or holiday apartment.


It is a great chance to pamper, indulge yourself in the much-needed me-time while enjoying the hotel's amenities to the fullest (hello bathtub and room service)

Although it's just a short break in your city, packing for an overnight trip shouldn't be boring and blah. 

Not sure what to pack for a relaxing hotel staycation in the city?

Check out our list below for ideas.

1. Moisturizing Sheet Mask

A hotel staycation is a perfect time to indulge in this often-skipped skincare step. 

And they are often packed individually so it's so easy to just chuck a few (or a box) into your weekender bag.

I personally like Garnier Hydra Bomb Pomegranate Mask:
  • Formulated with 1 week's worth of serum concentrated in just 15 minutes use of 1 sheet mask. 
  • Enriched with anti-oxidant pomegranate extract 
  • Intensely rehydrates skin, reduces the look of fine lines, and revives radiance.
  • The serum absorbs nicely and doesn't leave a sticky gooey feeling
  • Thicker sheet mask
Super-hydrating and revitalizing. My skin is so dewy after application. 

2. Travel Skincare Set

Who has time (and patience) to transfer their skincare essentials into travel-friendly bottles?

Why not just grab a travel skincare set that fits perfectly into that overnight bag?

3. Aromatherapy Bath & Shower Gel

For that luxurious bubble bath of course!

I absolutely adore the Aromatherapy range by Bath and Body Works that will turn your staycation into a spa-level experience.  

It is carefully crafted with essential oil blend and made with aloe and bamboo extract.
  • Nourishing, leaves skin feeling clean, soft, and refreshed. 
  • Absolutely calming, great for stress relief
  • Fragranced with natural essential oils 
  • Fast foaming - luxurious lush lush bubbles to die for.

Psst. It comes in travel size too!

4. Soft, Fluffy Bathrobe

While some hotels provide bathrobes, often they aren't of the best quality. 

You deserve a soft and fluffy bathrobe on your perfect getaway so why not pack one along to elevate your DIY spa weekend?

😍 Cotton Waffle Bathrobe (hotel quality!) - to wrap you in that 5-star hotel feeling every day. 
😍 KOO Teddy Bathrobe - Buttery soft and luxuriously comfortable
😍 SHEIN Bathrobe with Hoodie -Bathrobe with a teddy hoodie, comfy and cute. Just take my money already.

5. The Comfiest Loungewear

Loungewear is your uniform for a hotel staycation.

You need something that is not only comfy but also stylish and presentable for moments when you need to open the door for your room service.

Uniqlo has the comfiest yet stylish apparel ever.

😍 Satin Short Sleeve Pyjama 


Short-sleeved top and pants in satin fabric, easy care feature. Very comfy to lounge in!
If you prefer long-sleeved loungewear, then you gotta pack this along. Added comfort features such as DRY technology and Cool Touch keep you super comfy.

6. Books And Other Reading Materials

Hotel staycation is the perfect time to catch up on your readings. You know, in between soaking in the bathtub, putting on a sheet mask and stuffing your face with food.
Buying books nowadays is so easy. One of my favourites is Big Bad Wolf Official Store in Shopee. 

Convenient, attractive prices and a wide selection of books for the whole family. 

7. One Piece Swimwear



Don't forget to pack your swimwear in case you decided to finally emerge from the room, swim, or soak up the sun by the pool.

8. Sunscreen, Sunscreen, Sunscreen

If you are going to lounge by the pool, sunscreen is a must to protect you from damaging UV rays.

Well, actually, you should use sunscreen every day even if you are indoors.

Porn Puaka Di Gym

Tajuk mengundang kontroversi Sis ni bukan apa rajin pergi gym, selain nak bersenam, iols juga suka mencuci mata. Bukan setakat mencuci mata dengan jantan helok (I'm still hoping sebab gym iols pegi tu SENDUU), sis juga suka melihat gegadis yang fefeeling gedik dengan bermacam fesyen di gym tu. Biasanya gegadis newbie ni macam cendawan. Muncul sekejap di kala azam baru masih utuh yakni di awal tahun atau selepas perayaan di mana memasing nak kurus.  Tunggulah 2 bulan kemudian langsung tak nampak batang hidung ataupun buttcheeks. Eh? Sebenarnya salah satu benda Cik Panda nak cerita pasal butt cheeks. Butt cheeks are absolutely NO NO except at the pool or beach when you are in your swimsuit.  Cik Panda tak jealous la uols sebab Cik Panda tak hingin pun nak ada bontot yang jelly welly tu. ZAssssss So hari tu ada sorang minah ni baru 1st time iols nampak kat gym, tengah workout dengan bopren dia la gitu. Pakai sports bra je dengan really short shorts yang menampakkan ...

Deko Laman Kecil

Minggu lepas sis ada post gambar makeover laman rumah yang siap dalam masa 3 hari. Rupanya ramai jugak yang ingin mempunyai laman yang cantik dan kemas kan. Ye la, balik kerja stress petang-petang. Jadi kalau ada laman yang kemas, hati pun sejuk dan tenang je.  So uols pun bertanya-tanya macam mana sis buat laman tu? Ahh senang aja. Janji ada kerajinan, kemahuan dan sudah tentunya kena ada modal sikit.  Laman yang sis makeover tu adalah laman rumah mak weols. Sedeh nengoknya terbiar macam tu. Sayang tak buat apa-apa sebab lokasi dan saiz dia penuh dengan potensi untuk menjadi sebuah laman yang cantik. Idea untuk deko laman itu memang ada cuma proses melaksanakannya membuat otak sis jam. Tanah rumah tu mendap dan turun beberapa inci. Jadi ada ruang yang perlu diisi supaya laman itu nanti sama rata dengan konkrit rumah. Mana lagi nak tanam bunga, rumput dan deko? Sebenarnya sis tak tau macam mana nak mula sehinggalah satu hari tu, iols ikut sepupu sis, si JJ beli...
