How to organise a hotel meet?
Jump to: Newest in thread
It seems like that the swinging scene might need to adapt for a short time while everything return's to 'normal',so hotel and home meets maybe a bit more popular than before the pandemic started! My question is,how do you get away with extra guest's coming in to the hotel/room, is it literally just a case of sneaking extra people in? Or do you book a room that sleep's 4 people   it's Just a thought really ,but I thought I'd ask people who have either organized or been to one to enlighten me. |

Previously I've just booked the room in my name, met the couple at a bar then we've just made our way back to the hotel, straight through reception and up to the room. Admittedly my guests have left after playtime, but in the past they've just walked out, no matter what time of the night/morning. I suspect some hotels might want contact details of anyone coming in, but if you have nothing to hide then that's not a problem  |

Bigger hotels that are not in City centres are the best option. Guests can usually walk to the lift & head up to a room without any barrier.
Smaller hotels may be more difficult and city centre hotels usually require a key card to swipe in past the outer reception area
Village hotels do a day hire which is great for a daytime meet & they are easy to get in & out of  |

If we're inviting someone to join us in a hotel room we do one of two things: if no key card is required to access the lifts, we just give them the room number and they come straight up, or of a key card is required Mr will go down to reception and bring them up. Pretty simple really. We've used a large chain city centre hotel ourselves recently (for just us, no-one else) and the only difference to pre-Covid was hand sanitizer in the reception area |

We book a while flat or small house on Airbnb
Check parking is ok then we stay over to wind down, get pizza etc
Also always check out the bed in the pictures, you don’t want a creaky bed banging against the wall and alerting the neighbors lol |

We have booked our favourite hotel for Saturday night the first time since lockdown, the reception area isn't at the front door, you can get upstairs without been seen. It's a country estate hotel |

Just back from a hotel stay on the weekend.
Easily manageable! Just check-in & off you go! Different staff work different shifts, so the person that checked you in - will more than likely not be there when it’s play time! |

Mr and I had a hotel meet last week. They didn't ask for both our details. Only the one who had booked the room. I've already booked our next hotel meet. |

It seems to me (Mike), that people tend to worry to much about what the hotel staff may or may not think. I’ve stayed in hotels for 3 or 4 nights a week probably 30 weeks a year for the last 20 years. I’m general they are the safest easiest place to meet. (Pandemic worries aside).
If there is a key card system, go and meet the guests, or leave a envelope at reception with a note and the key in. Meet in the bar?
Straight to the room. Etc etc.
For me the logistics of getting a guest/guests in is less than the logistics of finding a genuine play date!
Nice hotels often mean nice rooms and bathrooms, extra towels perhaps a gown thrown in.
Out of town hotels mean people need to travel not always easy to have a drink. Town centre hotels often have key cards for elevators, but people are coming and going so one more couple don’t get noticed.
We can’t wait for normality to return and get back to swinging good times!
My apologies if the auto-cucumber Has changed some words and this makes no sense. |

Having stayed twice since things opened up, they were much quieter than before. Staff also seemed more uptight, perhaps because they've had redundancies and don't want to be next, if they're seen to be justified for criticism. 1 place I stayed appeared stricter than any shop etc I've been in for months.
Other feedback here is helpful. I didn't use my stays for meets. If you were planning to in future, you could visit first to check things out. Larger places will possibly be easier for discretion and people to merge and be less conspicuous. It's important to recognise that fab is following the official uk guidance and laws on restricting physical interaction and meets between strangers. |

So many hotels are doing things differently; personally I’d ensure if 4 people are attending, then pay for 4 adults.
We’re more likely to use AirBnB or rent an apartment for a night; pretty embarrassing to have your invited Bull escorted of the premises  |

Pre covid if meeting in a hotel then meet at the bar and then just when the time is right leave and head up to the room. A lot of hotels have bars and the such like that are not overseen by reception. |

Book an apartment, once you have the key the ones I’ve stayed in have had easy entry & you have the bonus of more rooms etc ...there’s more options for props too ! All adding to a classier meet . |

"I can see hotels being stricter nowadays about who is on their premises so I think hotel meets will probably be a no go for the foreseeable future.  "
I'd have to agree with this. |

I have a small Motel with chalets not far from where I live. Good for getting a guest/ guests in and easy parking.
I appreciate that Motels are not as plentiful as Travelodge or Premier-Inn but I think things will get better.

"Check Campanile Motels. Rooms in separate block to reception so your guests come straight to room without passing reception. "
If there is a fire and the hotel has no record of who is at the hotel then they will be in trouble. |

I've worked in Hotel Management for over 35 years, with specialist expertise in Front of House & Security operations.
Everyone on here plus other similar threads have all voiced roughly how things have happened in the past, vs how it could happen now!
But not every hotel is the same, nor are all hotels following or going to follow the same formats as before.
Until Govt rules are totally relaxed to where they were PRE-CIVIL times, hotels are going to be jumpy about who will be visiting. In reality, they are legally required to take the names of EVERY person staying in their premises each night. This also complies with Fire Regulations as laid down by regional Fire Authorities, on behalf of the Central Govt.
But whoever visits any hotel could also be regulated under local Council laws in conjunction with Licensing laws. Where I work, we cannot have or allow any access to non-residents after Midnight; if we knowingly do so, it could affect our Liquor Licence.
Newer properties or those with separate bedroom access points are more likely to be popular with people wanting some fun times.
But not every hotel has a lift. Older properties don't have one, so sneaking someone into your room could be difficult as the only way there is via staircases and in these times, hotel owners will be more security conscious.
Note, some hoteliers, like our owners, won't be allowing non-residents into their premises until further notice.
For those who've said they walked straight past Reception and no-one looked up, I had to smile; that's typical of the big chains where staff are always "head down" and rarely look up.
One last point. Hotel owners or Managers are also becoming involved with more security involved operations as part of Licensing renewals. That is, after the Child Grooming scandals in certain parts of the UK, Liquor Licensing requirements now include mandatory training to be security aware of all the signs. It's being rolled out across the UK by regional Police Forces.
Thus in some places, managers will be more alert. |

Read Genguy comment as he knows what he is talking about. I think any people who are attempting to hold gang bangs at a Campernile style hotels are currently crazy people re Covid. This virus is here for a long time. |

I think hotels need to be more vigilant with hotel ‘guests’ ! Checking car park and car registrations is the answer.
I fear people will arrange gang bangs and pass this virus around. It’s up to hotels to protect their staff and guests!!! |

We do try but you have other guests who don’t follow the rules. Like waiting for staff to go on rounds before letting all their mates on for a party. Will do loud music and smoke in rooms and not care who is staying next to them. Even worse when travellers stay.

Pre covid we found it easy, we use Prem Inn or travel lodge, because we only play for few hours we have never had an issue, one of us usually meets the lady in reception and just make their way to our room.
We have done this loads. |

I’m staying (alone) in a hotel tonight - it would be no problem having guests in my room tonight (sadly, I don’t have any offers). Some hotels might be stricter about admission of non-residents. |

I work in hotel management in a city centre and currently I can't see hotel meets being as easy to organise as they used to be. My company requires everyone that comes into the hotel register via track and trace, regardless of time of day. You need key cards to access the lifts and rooms. Pre covid I've always been very lenient of extra people being in rooms but currently we have to follow health & safety so closely. We don't have an open bar or restaurant so we've been turning people away since reopening. |

Same for me never been an issue before but could be trickier now with less people and footfall. However some chains are doing it all by phone app so i guess its just walk in and bluff it. Brave new world time |

That would be my advice. Book a bigger room and then there's no need to sneak people in. |

What about Campanile style hotels with rooms separate from the hotel? Will they have to provide guest info re track and trace? |

As far as I'm aware all hotels and accommodation have to. Again, its entirely down to how people access the property. I know some places with off site properties that would probably mean people can avoid a reception area. At the end of the day its all down to how comfortable you are bringing strangers into rooms and if you're fibd with ignoring track & trace. |

But surely the hotel must stick to government rules and somehow police this....after all they have a duty to guests and staff. |

Of course everyone must obey the rules of the day - I was talking about pre-virus days

Whenever we do hotel meets, we try to meet in advance in a pub around the corner for a few drinks and to get to know each other. We then organise the order of who is going up to the room, usually in pairs. |
