Hi to anyone that might read this.  Thanks to this brilliant site I have my first hotel meet coming up. I'm mainly wanting to know what to do when I get there. Can I just waltz right in and up to the person's room? Do I need to sign in as a guest? I'm just wondering how it works as I'm a total rookie! Also any general advice and any etiquette/unwritten rules I should be aware of would be very much appreciated. |

Just walk right in if its a big hotel, many dont question anyone walking straight through, remember there are hundreds of people staying there so they rarely know everyone. If you are nervous,worried, ask your meet to meet you in the bar or lobby |

"Cool, that's what I was hoping it was going to be like. Thanks so much for taking the time to help me out!

I wouldn't be asking at reception anyway, thats for sure. Get her room number and go direct or best to follow the other advice and meet in the bar.
Whats she doing paying for the room anyway? Should you not be doing that or at least going half? |

A lot of hotels need a keycard for the lift anyway. So meeting in the bar is the easiest bet. |

"Ive had a couple of hotel meets, I always get them to meet me outside. Much safer and less nerve wracking than walking in alone x"

The first meet I had was a couple at a hotel and arranged to meet directly in their room. I've never been catfished, but I was so nervous I got the room number wrong (Dyslexia and nerves don't go together!). Nobody answered and I double checked the room and went to the right one.
It's good if you can meet at the bar I've found. |

Yep I agree with meet at the bar, it gives u both chance to say hi and make sure you still want to go ahead.
Also as Ligeia said, some hotels (especially premier Inn) you need a key card to go up to the accommodation corridors.
Otherwise normal meet etiquette applies.
Oh and as a nice touch, if it hasn't already been discussed, offer to contribute to the hotel room, it's nice manners.
Have fun x |

Shuffle in wearing a flasher mac, hat pulled low over eyes covered by dark glasses.. keeping close to the wall whilst trying not to draw attention to yourself ... and try and get to the lift without being apprehended by security   |

"Aha, let me know if you're ever staying in Manchester.
If that was in reply to me, I do go there "
Yeah that was in reply to you. Send me a sweet message next time you're up here. |
