Sounds of a Holiday

Unzipping a suitcase. There’s something about that sound that just says freedom. It’s an announcement that your holiday has officially begun and relaxation awaits.

Nothing sounds quite like a holiday

At Warner Hotels, we’ve always known that the sounds of a holiday are just as important as the sights and tastes. Nothing matches the calm that comes when you hear birdsong on our country escapes. Or that smile from hearing steak sizzling on a grill. Or the gentle fizzle as you sink slowly into a tub filled to the brim with bubbles.

Watch and listen

The sounds of bliss

Now a recent survey has ranked the most popular holiday sounds. Crashing waves top the list, along with singing birds and the splash of a pool. Of course, the fizz of a drink being poured over ice is up there too, along with the turning of a book page and the swish of a golf club.

More than half the people surveyed also said that the ding of a lift and the shaking of a cocktail made them instantly think of holidays.

These are all sounds that you’ll be more than familiar with at a Warner Hotel, as you savour our menus, indulge in our spas and take your pick from our great list of activities.

The simplest sounds can be all it takes to bring out that holiday glow as you unwind in new surroundings. They stand for switching off from the routine, spending time with people you love and trying amazing new experiences.
