Can I open a hotel if I am over 16?

Whether an adult can open a hotel depends on the following circumstances:

1. If a minor is under 16 years old, he or she cannot stay in the hotel alone;

2. If you are under 18 years old but must be over 16 years old, hold your second-generation ID card and can live independently, you can check into the hotel alone after being strictly reviewed by the hotel.

The basic requirements for the registration of accommodation passengers are as follows:

1. Hotels should register and enter the information of accommodation passengers in accordance with the requirements of real names, real facts, real numbers, and real-time;

2. It is strictly prohibited for guests without valid documents to check in, and it is strictly prohibited for guests not to register;

3. The hotel should check the resident ID card and other valid documents of the guests on a person-by-person basis;

4. The accommodation guest registration form should comply with the requirements of the public security organ;

5. The hotel should establish a visitor registration system, verify the visitor's identity document, and receive guests in the guest room.

To sum up, minors who are over 16 years old and hold their second-generation ID cards can check into the hotel alone after review, and people under 16 years old can check in with adults.
