Do I have to have an ID card to stay in a hotel?

Yes, you must use your ID card to open a hotel room. Now all regular hotels are connected to the public security bureau, and everyone who stays in a hotel room must show his ID card, otherwise he will not stay.

According to Article 6 of the Measures for the Administration of Public Security in Hotel Industry:

Hotels must register when they receive passengers. At the time of registration, the passenger's identity documents shall be checked and truthfully registered according to the prescribed items.

To receive accommodation from overseas tourists, an accommodation registration form shall also be submitted to the local public security organ within 24 hours.

Step 2: After receiving your reservation information, we will confirm it within one hour.

Step 3: After receiving our confirmation, the guest only needs to give the guest's name at the hotel front desk.

Step 4: You need to bring an adult ID card when you check in and pay a certain deposit.

Precautions:

1. Hotel rooms are generally reserved until 22: 00 on the day of reservation, and holidays may be reserved until the evening 19.
