Can minors stay in regular hotels?

Minors can stay in regular hotels, but they need to bring their ID cards. If you don't apply for or lose your ID card, you can go with an adult.

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

Article 6 A hotel must register for receiving passengers' accommodation. 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.

In China, minors refer to citizens under the age of 18; In other countries, the age range of minors is not completely different. For example, in Japan, minors refer to citizens under the age of 20.
