I booked a hotel on Meituan a few days in advance. Do I need to call the merchant in advance when I check in?

There is no need to call again to confirm. When you enter the hotel, go directly to the counter to show your online order information and your ID card. If more than one person is staying, you must show the ID card of each person concerned.

You need to pay a certain deposit when you check in, generally ranging from 50~ 100 yuan, and the deposit receipt should be kept well. When you check out, if the staff checked the financial integrity of the room and did not use the charged items in the room, the deposit will be refunded in full.

After handling the check-in information, the staff will inform the room number and location, and give the guest a room card or key. Online booking can only be paid within the specified time after placing an order, usually half an hour, and it will not work after arriving at the hotel. Only the deposit is paid in person.

Five points for attention when booking hotels online:

1. Buy from regular websites, platforms and agents with complete licenses. Don't believe in the so-called tail orders and special offers peddled by the people, and don't just click on the QR code or network links from unknown sources.

2. See clearly the room size, floor, bed type, price, whether breakfast is included, whether an extra bed is allowed and other information in the reservation interface. If you have other requirements, you can put them forward at the time of booking (such as asking for a non-smoking floor or a quiet floor, etc.). ). If you make a reservation through a third-party platform, you can confirm with the hotel whether the reservation is successful or not after completion, so as to avoid the problem of missing the reservation.

3. When booking a foreign hotel, check whether the price includes local taxes and service charges, and the specific requirements of the hotel for check-in (such as check-in time, number of people, whether there is an extra bed, etc.). ), and print and save the order reservation information and hotel reservation reply in case of emergency.

4. After booking, you need to keep screenshots, transaction records, chat records, etc. In order to prevent merchants from arbitrarily changing the content of web promotion and activities, resulting in personal rights and interests being damaged.

5. Pay attention to whether the hotel reservation can be cancelled. Some hotels can cancel before the specified date, and some hotels can't cancel after booking. Some agent platforms have cooperated with insurance companies to launch hotel cancellation insurance. If you book a hotel a long time in advance, you can consider this kind of insurance, but you must carefully read the applicable rules and exemption clauses of cancellation insurance.
