The Best Way to Pack – A Business Traveler’s Guide

In most business traveling trip articles, you’re advised to pack light or pack smart. But what does that mean? How do you pack light or pack smart and still look presentable at business meetings? After all, you want to look clean and professional when you’re meeting potential clients, or executives from other companies. If you look sloppy, you won’t make a good impression.

At Royal Park Hotel, we asked our frequent business traveling guests about their packing secrets and put together this brief guide. Most business travelers visiting the best hotels in Lima follow these simple tips.

1 .Pack Dark, Solid Colors

Dark and solid colors don’t just look good, they also hide stains and wrinkles easily in most cases. For example, wrinkles in cream pants would stand out but a dense black trouser won’t show it as much. The ability to hide stains is also an advantage. If you pack clothes that are of one color palate, you’ll be able to mix and match them better.

2. Always have a Go-Bag of Essentials

Keep a travel bag for toiletries always packed instead of packing and re-packing them every time you head out. It’s advisable to keep travel-size bottles and bars of all the things you might need. While the best hotels in Lima do provide toiletries, some people prefer their own. Having a go-bag would help.   

3. Weigh your Bags before the Trip

You won’t get unpleasant surprises if you weigh your bag at home before leaving. That way you can ensure that they’re within the weight allowing of your airline. This is vital for your carry-on bags.

4.Pack Just Two Suits

Or better yet, pack one and wear one. In most cases, just two suits are more than enough for a business trip. You can always alternate the shirts, skirts, or trousers that you wear with the suits to add variety. You can also use the laundry service provided by the best hotels in Lima.

5.Roll Your Clothes

Rolling your clothes can be a great way to save space in your luggage. It will also reduce wrinkles so you don’t have to worry about the appearance. You can also put clothes in plastic bags or laundry bags and compress them. This would keep them wrinkle-free and save space.
