What time is checkout at the hotel?

“Hotel ka checkout kitne baje hai?”

Tell guests the hotel's checkout time, whether a late checkout has been arranged, and where they can leave bags after checking out. Guests often leave on the last day, so set the last function and checkout side by side and say what to do if the function ends after checkout.

What to tell guests

How should you answer it?

  • Ask the hotel for the checkout time on your rooms, and whether late checkout is possible for elders.
  • Arrange a luggage room if a function is on checkout day.
  • Say who settles extras like room service and the minibar.
  • Send it the evening before checkout.

What goes wrong with this one?

  • Assuming guests know extras are theirs to pay.
  • Checkout before the last function, with nowhere to change.
  • Not telling the hotel which rooms may be extended.
