'Sneaking' two extra children into hotel room booked for two adults and two children

Your "friend" 😂

They probably think they are being so clever dont they and claiming they dont have money for anything else. Thing is it will be a truly horribly holiday, the room will be a mess and the kids will end up fighting with each other.

I would rather stay at home cutting my toenails than go on a sort of holiday like this.

This is not thought through.
What if the 2 people legally in room 227 went out for dinner? You can never tell how many people are in a hotel at any given time.

Dick move, simple as. And do the kids know they need to maintain a lie for 10 nights?

To be fair, there's a bit of difference between having an unplanned one night stand and planning on sneaking in 2 extra kids for 10 days!

Ah OK, I misunderstood 😅

It sort of is the other residents business! How would you like it if you had paid properly for your stay and guests were sneaking in other people. Facilities are for the guests not for random people who the hotel doesnt know about. They are also probably the sort of people who would try and reserve SIX sunbeds in the middle of the night.

You normally need to give your passports in on check in for registration.

Can you imagine your friend being pulled up on this and asked to leave. We will then see the Daily Mail 'sad face' story and how we should 'think of the children'!!

That sleeping arrangement sounds like it'll last about 2 nights before the kids want to kill each other.

Fire safety is a potential issue there. In the event of a fire (or other emergency), all the records will show 2 children and 2 adults for that booking, so that's what emergency responders will be looking for. That might not feel like a big deal to some people, but the hotel is likely to care about it. If they're caught, they're at real risk of being asked to leave.

No no you misunderstand. The normal families with 4 kids book two rooms and sort themselves out with the combination of sleeping arrangements which suits.

The cheeky fuckers book one room for 2 adults and 2 kids and pile in two extra.

Where will they all sleep?

It doesn't sound like a restful holiday to me.

Have they done it for daddy so he can have more beer money ?

My money's on the hotel catching on fire while they're burying a body in the woods.

This is one of those situations where she'll wish she hadn't because it will make the holliday shit, one way or another.

I'd rather stay at home

I've done this many times at hotels in Las Vegas, albeit with adults and not children. I've never had a problem. Insurance never crossed my mind, especially as there are hotel guests who invite one night stands up to their rooms. When has that ever been an insurance issue?

i am not sure what is the problem with having 2 double rooms with extra child bed in each to cater for family of 6. what exactly is CF?

It won’t be the first time or the last that people have done this and to be honest with the money that is charged by holiday companies during school holidays I can’t say I blame them.
I can’t understand why you’ve posted about it though, it’s quite frankly none of your business is it now…..

Christ almighty ... what are the chances of both parents being killed or incapacitated ... I can't believe some people live like this! How do you leave the house!

How the fuck is that bullshit?

You can't look for people you don't know are there?

There’s a lot of problems in Spain at the moment with tourism. I’d imagine that when housekeeping go in and see that the room is clearly over occupied they won’t hesitate to flag to management and the booking will be cancelled. But regardless of what country is being visited I wouldn’t risk this, I also work in a hotel and like others have said we can and do cancel bookings for things like this. I hope your friend has a back up plan because it’s likely to be tricky to get accommodation in Spain last minute. You were right to flag your concerns to her.

Its effectively stealing! The other kids will have access to the hotel facilities for free. How would your friend feel if non residents starting using the pool and sitting on the sun beds. It would be bedlam. Their kids are non residents.

Love it 😂
Can't believe the furore on this!

I'm on holiday just now. At no point have I given my holiday address to anyone

Did you have to hand your passports in at reception? I've usually had to do this and they say it's for registration.

"I work in a hotel. If someone did this and we had a fire we would only be looking for the people booked into the room."

🤣🤣🤣 such horseshit. The things some people write.

Apart from the in the event of fire/emergency scenario likelihood is in a large hotel they won't notice and nothing much will happen?

Might depend on layout of hotel a bit too but most I've been in wouldn't notice extra guests and you could say the older ones are visitors staying somewhere else?

The hotels that don’t have secure access areas, all of them.
