In most cases, hotels have policies regarding solo check-in for minors (underage guests) and require advance approval from the parent or legal guardian. This is typically done via phone call or email before booking confirmation. Some common practices include:
- Calling ahead: Hotels may request a phone conversation between the minor’s parent/guardian and their reception team to confirm arrangements, discuss any specific needs or concerns.
- Written consent: In some cases, parents may need to provide written permission for the minor to stay solo in the hotel room, which can be obtained via fax, email, or mail.
It is essential to contact hotels directly before booking to inquire about their specific policy and requirements regarding solo check-in for minors. Some may have varying age restrictions or require additional documentation from parents or legal guardians.
