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

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

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.

Manusia Dua Alam

  Pernah jumpa tak manusia yang indah khabar dari rupa? Ataupun manusia yang dalam sosial media adalah seseorang yang sangat menarik hidupnya, melancong sana sini, kelihatan peramah dengan cerita-cerita pasal orang sekeliling dia tapi dalam kehidupan sebenar, agak sendu dan krik krik? Pernah kan? Inilah manusia dua alam dimana alam maya dan alam realiti dia berbeza umpama langit dan bumi. Ada seorang manusia ni, kita namakan dia XX (bukan nama sebenar). XX ni sering update cerita panjang lebar dalam sosial media dia. Satu gambar dia upload selalu disertakan dengan karangan 2 mukasurat.  Ada sekali dia upload gambar makanan yang diberikan rakan sekerja dia. Mulalah karangan 2 muka surat dia menceritakan mak si anu masak makanan lebih sikit untuk dia, si polan pun bagi makanan. Betapa murahnya rezeki dia dan bertuah dikelilingi kawan-kawan yang baik dan thoughtful. Wahhh kemain. Tapi dalam alam realiti, dia manusia berperangai pelik dan tidak boleh difahami. K...

Inferno Panic

Last night, Joel, Anne and i was chatting in the house when we smell something burning. We looked everywhere for the source of the smell until i saw smoke coming out of the main switchboard.  First it was only smoke, then little flame. Before long, the fire got bigger! Smoke fill the house and it smell of burning plastic and rubber. We panic and run out of the house. Knocked on neighbour's door to ask if they have fire extinguisher while Anne and I trying to think who to call for help. We wanted to call bomba but didn't know the number! In that moment of panic, we forgot that it's 999. So we call friends asking for bomba's number. Anne called her friend and the first thing her friend said "Anne! Save your laptop and your thesis!"  Only post-grad students understand this. Thesis and our research is more valuable than your IC or money or thousand dollar phone because only we know how difficult, how important our thesis is. Its a lifetime effort and hard...

Amazing Swimming Pools

I am a Pisces and "pisces" in Latin means fish. Pisces love to swim. So that explains my strong affinity for water. Just like a fish, i find water to be calming and soothing. Recently i've began to swim regularly after so long. Not only it is a good exercise, it releases stress and is extremely calming. I've read somewhere that water is a good medium to buffer and absorb all your negative energy and emotions. Two in one eh? I've developed obsession over swimming pools recently. Why i always seems to have obsession lately is beyond me. The nicest pool i've been to so far was this pool with an amazing view of Petronas Twin Tower. Perfect for a night swim as it was quiet and the pool is heated. Macam infinity pool tapi tidak juga.   Infinity pools are the nicest! Jom cuci mata sambil berangan ada pool macam ni... Ooh that's super nice. Perfect for a night swim. This is a pool in Bali. So calming. Next trip perhaps? ...
