B&Bs and its facilities allowed?

Are B&Bs and its facilities like petanque fields and playgrounds for their guests considered eligible wayspots?

It could be considered private property, but from what I was able to find, that only applies to single family homes. As both hotels and apartments are allowed and (the smaller ones) are often privately owned, is it fair to say that B&Bs could also be considered according to the same rule. That is, if it promotes one of the three eligibility criteria?

    Bed & Breakfast by themselves, they are not eligible, hardly fit any criteria. Only if they have something VERY VERY particular, like "the first B&B in the area 100 years old", you need to prove that.

    If it has a open cafe/bar, maybe try that.

    These things are eligible but not sure if they are automatically not eligible due to being on hotel-grounds. Acessibility and disponibility of a POI DOESNT need to be 24/7 and for ALL people.

    (Hope you mean the B&B hotels, thats what Google told me)


    Hotels doesnt meet eligibility criteria as long as they have no historical meaning. A hotel chain in general should be ineligible.

    B&B's are not eligible submissions.

    I did mean B&Bs in the sense of "bed & breakfast", an privately owned type of hotel in which the owners often live aswell. Those are, to my knowledge, never chains (as that would go against the definition of a small privately owned hotel).

    But if it has a historical meaning or is quite different from other B&Bs, would that make it eligible as an unique local business? Are playgrounds and petanque fields on the B&B's terrain for their guests eligible just as any other playground or petanque field, or can those be rejected for being private property, even though it is not a single family home?

    Ah okay. Those facilities are ineligible, they just simply doesnt meet any eligibility criteria.

    As long as the B&B terrain is not on private property, Id rate it like a normal playground.

    Bed & breakfasts aren't strictly ineligible. Some are themselves tourist destinations and would fall under "a place for exploration."

    Review/nominate it like any business where it isn't strictly eligible or ineligible. Is it locally featured or renowned? Is it specially themed and one-of-a-kind? Do people travel just to stay at it?

    It would NOT fall under "private residential property" rejection unless the house is also lived in as the primary dwelling by the owner/property manager.
