SMALL TALK / HOTELS - BOOKING AND CHECKING IN

No matter which country you are visiting, people who work at major hotels will use English to communicate if you are unable to speak their native language. Hotel workers will always provide friendly and efficient service as it is part of their job.

Booking in Advance
It is common practice to book your time at the hotel in advance to ensure that you will be able to stay at the hotel of your choice and avoid having to find a room once you have arrived.
Bookings can be done over the telephone or on the Internet using the hotel website. The hotel may require partial payment to secure the booking and this can be done with an electronic fund transfer or by credit card.

Checking In
If you do not have a booking prior to arriving at the hotel, the first step will be to check the availability of rooms within the hotel. If the hotel is unable to offer you a room they will usually be happy to help you find a room in another hotel and will expect no payment for this service, however, it is appropriate to tip if you feel you have been given friendly and helpful service.
You may be required to pay for the room in advance or leave an impression of your credit card as security when checking in.

Hotel Information
The hotel staff are always willing to help guests with information regarding the city or town they are located in. They can arrange airport transfers, tours of the city or the surrounding areas or even accommodation in your next destination. If you would like to visit museums or see a play, musical or show the hotel can usually arrange discount tickets for you.

Checking Out
Once you have completed your stay at the hotel you will need to pay for any room service that you may have ordered or any other service that you may used during your stay, such as fitness classes or laundry.
The hotel may also ask you to give them feedback regarding their customer service to help them supply better service in the future.
