As we can’t accomodate and due to having booked numerous hotels for meets and never asked for any contributions. We’ve also booked rooms on 3 occasions and been let down.
Would it be wrong/cheeky of us to ask for half (usually the rooms are £44 so £22) towards the room and not allow them to stay over night?
We won’t go to a room they have booked as you never know if they have set up hidden cameras anywhere.
Just thought we’d ask for your opinions as don’t want to come across as rude.

You can ask single guys to book the hotel and when you meet pay half. Simple
This way, they can show their commitment for meets. Tbh many single guys love the chase but get cold feet for the meets. |

I don't think it's wrong to ask at all, in fact that's a very reasonable price you've got there for a room xx |

I personally wouldn't as it would be my place of hosting. My choice, my cost, especially if I was using the room overnight. |

You can always check the room before any play for hidden cameras.
We do it every time if we visit someone's hotel or house.
Nobody would mind if you want to take extra 5 min to check the room for spycams. |

Seems perfectly fair to expect him to pay half. However...
It would seem also perfectly fair for him to have an square share of the room for the night - or would you then expect him to pay for another room for himself?... in which case you'd be paying £22 (for you both = £11 each) and he'd be paying £66, which is hardly equitable.
Also, might he not have a similar concern about the possibility of you filming him?... surely, if you're meeting, some level of trust has already been established.

I would always expect it and if it hadn't been mentioned then I would always make the offer. It's the right and proper thing to do ?? |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
I would expect to pay a contribution in those circumstances. Maybe half if it was booked specially; maybe a contribution if they needed the room anyway; maybe a smaller about if it was a gang bang type event (though I don't tend to do those anyway). Similarly if attending a club with a woman I'd normally be gallant and offer to pay the couple's entry fee in full, but happy to be flexible if she wants to pay some or all. |

A third share would be more appropriate if he's staying. If you are not intending to let him use the room overnight then he shouldn't pay at all. |

Three people making use of the room for the duration then I would expect a contribution of 1/3 from each, as he's not staying over I wouldn't expect anything from him.
You're getting a meet and a half price room for the night after when he has to go home, I do think it's a bit cheeky yeah.

Pretty much agree with this.
It is a tricky one but i wouldn't pay half for a room i wasnt gonna get to sleep in.
Maybe ask for some money upfront however that works then if he is man enough and turns up then give him his fair share back. |

In my opinion id be absolutely happy to pay half if not then fully for the room obviously id let the other person do the booking process and id give them the money when we meet i think its only fair that the single guy pays at least half of the cost so no not at all wrong in asking |

I don't particularly think it's cheeky to expect a contribution, but as others have said a third of the cost would be more appropriate.
There is the thought that if he's not getting to stay in the room, then should he pay at all? But he's still had some use of it, and it may only have been booked because of the meet, so don't think asking for a contribution in those circumstances is unreasonable.
Looking at it another way on both counts, if you met in a club, he'd have to pay something by wah of entry fee, so why would meeting in a hotel be any different?
As for being wary of letting him book the room, as others have said he may have the same concerns about you - one way round this is to check in together regardless of who's booked, that way you know you're entering a "clean" room. Although if you've chatted enough, surely a level of trust will have been built in most instances. |

Id you expect him to leave in the middle of the night and you wont let him host you then no I dont think it woukd be fair.
If he is unable to host and is happy to do it then go for it.
I personally would be refusing a meet with someone if that was the case |

That’s a fair point. Sorry, should have explained further. We wouldn’t expect anyone to travel to meet us so that they’re put out, we always choose local guys.
We wouldn’t have an issue paying for half and leaving if it wasn’t for the concern of a camera.
No matter how much you talk to single guys on here, you can’t ever fully trust them. That’s because from experience, a few are so desperate that they pretend to be whoever you want them to be.

Who keeps the room?
Great way of having a cheap stay... book a room in a place you want to visit (such as London) room costs £200, have a 2 hour meet - they pay half, then the rooms yours for half price for the rest of your stay - cunning plan! |

While that is one way of looking at it a £200 room is vastly different from the kind of thing the OP is talking about. There are plenty of decent hotels, even in London, for £100 or less if you book in advance or shop around - split three ways that'd be £33 each.
Meet in a club and he'll pay more - using VA as an example (whose pricing is pretty fair for single guys) he'd pay £40 - so the cost of a decent but not over the top hotel isn't quite so unreasonable |

Rooms cost no more than £46 so would be £23 max.
Rooms are book specifically to meet and so are always booked local to where we live. |

I don't do clubs. Doesn't mean I'm not genuine. It's ridiculous to expect any man to have to go to a club to prove they're serious.
Costs are extortionate at the two nearest me, only a fool would pay those prices in my opinion. |

Your rules and if people are happy to meet you and accept that then fair play - however if it were me I'd decline the meet as personally my view is we're all there for a *mutually* agreeable time and therefore any costs of achieving that should be split equally - being *expected* to pay for the room would personally make me feel like I'd been granted a privilege and should count myself lucky for it, and that's not what this is about for me personally.
Now if I'd *chosen* to pay and had refused any offers of payment that would be different. |

We could say the same thing though can’t we. Why should we pay half to a guy who is staying in the room?
If he has it for work purposes then naturally we shouldn’t be expected to pay but if they have booked it specifically to meet us then we would of course contribute.

Market forces are such that lots of single guys will pay for the room if they can't accomodate, so if you only ask for half many will consider it a bargain.
However, given that we are middle aged with decent jobs and given she likes younger men who often have little or no money, we often end up paying for the room. It's our contribution to redressing the way our generation has fucked over today's young people
I do think it's a tad paranoid to think someone might set up secret cameras. I suppose its possible, but we've met with loads of men in their hotel rooms and have never had any such problem. |

But by all means check for cameras i don't think there is anything wrong with that, you should always check the environment where you are gonna be vulnerable what ever the situation. Like you said you cant really trust anyone you have only text to or just met.

Sounds nit-picking in this case as the cost is low (same price a single guy would pay to go to a club) but as a principle it's about how cost should be divided up, not all hotel rooms cost £46 |

"£ 44 pounds is a lot of bloody money to some people it is me.
Just saying."
I agree, wasn't saying it's cheap, but compared with how much a single guy has to pay to go to a club it's a similar cost. |

I've not read your profile but my take on this is, put it on your profile. I know the vast majority of men don't read profiles but if it's up front and they know the score, it's up to them to pay or not.
I still don't know how you go about getting the money without either party potentially losing out though!

Would it be wrong/cheeky of us to ask for half (usually the rooms are £44 so £22) towards the room and not allow them to stay over night?
We won’t go to a room they have booked as you never know if they have set up hidden cameras anywhere.

I know you wasn't saying that and i agree men pay to much to get in clubs but in clubs he MAY have more play on the night and he can make a night of it, make new friends watch others. |

"As a single guy, I'd look to pay for it all. Nice gesture to pay half but should pay all as single guy. "
Why? Genuinely curious as to why you think "as a single guy" you *should* pay the whole cost?
As I said further up thread, the purpose of the meet is for the mutual pleasure and enjoyment of everyone that's part of it, so surely it's only fair any costs of that meet are shared?
If you *choose* to pay it all as a genuine and nice gesture, that's wholly different from feeling you *should* pay, like you've been granted a privilege and should be grateful for the opportunity.
And that's before you get onto the whole thing of any sense of obligation or expectation if one person pays for it all. |

This is why i prefernto meet someone who is able to accommodate. I'm a single parent and do live hand to mouth at times. I dont have the spare cash to be able to contribute half towards hotel costs... Especially when I already pay out for a babysitter. It's just too much money. |

It does sound like you are saying 'single guys' cannot be trusted.
They let you down... they are probably filming you...
There are a lot of 'people' on here that are not genuine or that are d*unk and/or that just are not confident about themselves.
It's more a case of getting to know someone longer. Chatting on phone etc. Seeing how trust worthy and genuine someone really is. Have a coffee first. That's a lot cheaper than a hotel room.

Why? A lot of women would feel that you are somehow buying their time and favour, it's a bit of a patronising old fashioned attitude imho.If they get cold feet and decide not to play, do you ask for your money back?
In the case of the OP, they are a couple, so shouldn't the man of the couple also pay in line with your views? |

Oh I know individual circumstances and affordability come into it and that is of course completely understandable, and something to be agreed separately.
What I'm struggling with here though is the apparent *expectation* of some that a single guy *should* pay for everything just because he's a single guy. |

This is how I do it
Single lady
I stay overnight in the room I pay.
We both stay overnight I pay as I'd invited her as my guest.
She stays alone in the room she pays.
Neither of us stay overnight 50/50
This is the same for couples apart from all staying overnight cause I wouldn't stay overnight with a couple.

are you intending to stay there overnight and ask them to leave? Because essentially you're inviting a man to your hotel room for a limited time...why would you expect them to pay for you to use it after they've gone? |

Yes I think it's wrong in a couples case. A contribution at least, maybe a bottle of wine. If I was the 3rd wheel I would definitely expect to be able to use the room for the rest of the night if I'd contributed 50%, just like you would be!!! |

Where have we stated such a thing? We simply just said you never know. Couples have been know to do this also.
The point in this thread was to gather if we would be unreasonable to ask for half.
Some say yes and others say no if they are not staying the whole night. We had a feeling that would be the case hence why we first asked.

Not wrong you can ask and the guy has a choice but surely unless you get the money up front they could still not turn up and you be out of pocket?
We only book hotels for other reasons and then if we happen to get a meet whilst we are away we do expect them to contribute. |

If you arrange a hotel meet with a single guy, it's perfectly reasonable to ask to share the room cost, and I doubt any guy would refuse to pay this.
Apart from one of my lady friends who uses a company card, I've always split the room bill 50/50 |

I think it's perfectly reasonable - especially with rooms at that price! And although there are technically 3 people I still think it's fair to split the cost 50/50 as, in my eyes, the couple come as a single entity. And, as a few others have said, if they are your rules and they are known about up front then the chap has an informed choice to make. Up to him if he likes the option or not. Given that, at those rates, it's less than half what it costs to get into some clubs I would say that's a bargain. And that's before we discuss the obvious quality on offer |

Look at the obvious places.
And we all know how to spot spy camera.
Phones, smart watches,hand bags placed facing bed, over the wardrobes, behind cutlery, TV, window seals behind the curtains, open laptop or a tablet.

Would it be wrong/cheeky of us to ask for half (usually the rooms are £44 so £22) towards the room and not allow them to stay over night?
We won’t go to a room they have booked as you never know if they have set up hidden cameras anywhere.
Just thought we’d ask for your opinions as don’t want to come across as rude.

I don't mind paying half if I stayed the whole night, but I don't mind paying for the whole room if you wanted to leave after. |

No problem sharing the cost but I wanted to pick up on the hidden camera comment. How does the other person sharing the cost of your room know if you have fit hidden cameras?"

That’s a fair point. They don’t but I suppose if they were worried about that then they wouldnt meet us in the beginning.
Suppose we’re all different really in what we worry about. I’m naturally more worried about it then others are as we’ve never been asked about it when we have hosted.

We always have hotel meetings and have always paid for the room however it is nice to get the offer of the guy either paying or going half. I would at least like the offer of a bottle or two of a nice wine if we were paying for the room. |

I've had various types, usually going halves and usually with all of us taying in the room or if it's been a GB all of us paying a contribution to the room, bring some wine along etc. I think the only times I didn't contribute anything was twice with a couple who wanted to film the event and I was happy for my face to be seen in he film, (it was all a bit on the 'extreme' side). I've never had problem with any hotel meetings, I think it's all down to everyone concerned be being upfront with each each other. |

Yes, half is probably too much. Ask for 50% which if far more reasonable. |

I haven't read all the replies, so apologies if I'm repeating what's been said already.
To answer the OP, yes I think it is a bit rude. You should pay the full price as only you are getting full use of the hotel room. |

I'd be happy to split it 50 50 between a couple. If I were staying. 1/3rd seems petty, given I was picked from a cast of thousands at the end of the day. |

I think at £22 it's a no brainer. I'd happily spring half. There's a cut off for everyone though, and it would depend on a huge amount of factors, could I get home afterwards, could I afford my own room, how blue are my balls. |

Perfectly reasonable to contribute and this is my preference. |

I think it’s taking the piss a little to expect him to pay half if you’re going to stay in it overnight, a third seems fairer to me. |

Why as a guy would you not offer to pay it all.
That's a good room rate!
But for me if your I'm meeting someone I'd pay for the room. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
If I was staying in the room then no I would not ask them to pay half. If we were then yes |

if the room is not being used afterwards.... then sure, split the charge!
if you are staying in the room afterward.... why am i subsidising your stay if you are staying anyway? |

Yes. If you choose to book hotels because you can't accommodate abs plan on using it all night it would be out of order to expect them to pay for half of your stay.
As for the camera thing.... What would you say if they accused you of the same? |

I think it's only manners to go half.
If a guy books a room for me and him to meet I'd always offer to pay my half as well. |
