"I work reception at a chain hotel, currently you have to provide photo ID for any adult staying. Adults should be from the same address (unless for work reasons) You have to complete the track and trace for each person or you wont be allowed to stay. Our company is being very strict. Changes on 17th so who knows what the rules will be then " How do those of us with old driving licences and no passports provide photo id though? This is something we often wonder about, thankfully it's not cropped up yet... | |||

Isnt a photo driving license something you have to have now? Either way, you might find a kind receptionist willing to overlook one i.d but the track and trace is a legal requirement | |||

" The way most checks for ID get done via internal search engines and most of the time this is why they don't ask for any further ID but if they have and ask for further details as proof could or would you be able to provide as at times it's a policy of the hotel which not only covers them but also those who would be accommodated within their property might also be part of the fire regulations should anything occur | |||

"That was just the same, when we unlocked last year... At one hotel, only registered guests were even allowed access to the property...." This is true. I had a couple of meets with my FWB and we had to supply our details with full ID. Wouldn’t have expected it to change this time! | |||

"I'm assuming that they won't demand passports " Not just covid but it’s becoming more and more common for security to require passport or driving licence of all guests. | |||

Ms x" There’s no requirement to live together , it’s none of their business even through lockdown 1&2 no one enforced it, but they do need to know and have a right to know who is staying in their properties | |||

The underlying influence in the industry amongst hotel customers and guests is that those hotel and similar properties which don't provide the safe rules & environments are going to suffer. Hotel booking agencies are already finding that hotels which don't have Covid safety regimes in place, are being shunned, with clients seeking properties that do offer a safe property. I can't say how independent BnB's, Inns, or AirBnB's will deal with it, but as far as hotels are concerned, their local councils will be cracking down on ensuring safety, if they haven't done so already. | |||

"Interesting. Thanks for highlighting. While things may change over the summer (fingers crossed) wonder how they will enforce the following... 1. Person(s) A book a hotel room for a swinging meet. They check in with their details as hotel guest(s) 2. Person(s) B meets in the bar for drinks. All click so invite them up to Person(s) A room (perhaps going up separately). They don’t stay overnight but head off after a few hours." I would hope that will still work but can see there being much stricter tracking of who is in the premises. | |||

Think you need to check as we are sure the paper license became invalid 2 or 3 years ago. You were right, as the original advice when photo licenses started you didn't need to renew paper license until you either defaced or moved house. 99% sure you had to renew to a photo license. | |||

Motorists with paper licenses aren't required to switch to photographic ones until a change of details needs to be made. | |||

"Aha it was the paper part of the photo card licence. In 2015 the paper counterpart was replaced by an online service, and paper counterparts ceased to be issued entirely, partially due to the number of people that kept losing them. "Yep. Mine is so old it's on parchment paper, written in charcoal.   | |||

"Hilton and premier inn booked here and only need the booking name. Same as restaurants last year and now- only need one booking name and it’s their responsibility to pass on to track and trace not the business xx" Is track&trace not based on the qr code scanning? We are worried now because I called hotel and they told me that two households are allowed only. Means if we invite someone to join us, that people should be fine if they are from the one household, so a couple living together… But if it would be a 2 men to join who do not live together, then only one will pass.. That is no good. | |||
