"Hi all. Just wondering how many of you would think of staying in a hotel when they (on paper) open on 4the july? I saw a piece in the paper last night of what hotels will be doing and I am a general manager of a hotel and it scares me to death all the things we can and cant do, I know they are only guidelines but not following the guidelines and someone potentially getting the virus (no matter how many measures we put into place). Of course deep cleaning is always top priority but there is always a risk. Thanks Danish x" Definately staying in Hotels as soon as they open. I have sent emails and received replies from 3 chains and one independant. All outline the procedures for booking arriving and staying. To a one their restaurents/bars are closed. Two are offering a bring in take-away menu. You order and they go get (for a price of course). Arrive at a set time - ring down to reception to say you are leaving etc. Can't wait actually. Love my home but a change in scenery will be just cool. | |||

I always expect the hotels that I stay at to be scrupulously clean anyway- so I have no doubt that they would employ their excellent standards after “lockdown” has been lifted for them. | |||

Thanks Danish x" I have been staying in them recently for work and you can see that although things have changed and the staff are under strict rules, everything is okay... The cleanliness is the major priority for them and they let you know that, sanitising stations are set up all over and 2mtr distancing is kept... The bar and restaurant were even open, almost like normal... | |||

"I'd be happy to stay in a hotel far more risk going food shopping also it would put a lot of people back in work, if things carry on like this half the hotels won't even be here to Stay in ! It's a total joke when people are going about calling in different households and if it was okay, I'm in Wales where we are still in lock down apparently!! " I'd rather spemd my money on the Welsh economy and support local hotels/pubs etc but seens as Drakefords is hell bent on destroying it I'm taking my custom over the bridge instead.

"Thank you all, definitely made me feel a little better that there are still people wanting to stay in hotels x" the only thing putting me off would be i stay in a hotel usually to visit somewhere new and of the local area/ shops/ entertainment / culture sights are all closed then no point going to the hotel on the first place nothing about the actual hotel itself would put me off ... you already expect your room to be clean so it would be no different now and breakfast can easily change to room service or grab and go continental style | |||

Let's hope they clarifies the rules sooner rather than later. We could have sold the rooms 10x over since lockdown. But rules are rules xxxxx.

that the government is likely to announce changes in the next week or so that should make things easier for the hospitality sector. 1m potential distancing is probably the one to make the biggest impact, leaving tables closer etc. There's no firm date for official announcement. Some of the scientific experts have talked more widely about how they can support 1m now but they couldn't earlier. Drip feeding of info to soften us up for it, I assume. | |||

"All Manchester ibis rooms are twin and doubles, and there does not seem to be any problems booking one after July 4th, with no mention of any kind of proof of who is sharing the room. You can book one at ours, but you still require proof on the day. Ibis are part of the same group.

" Be advised Travelodge as of Wednesday have applied for a company wide CVA, unless creditor and landlords agree they could go into administration." Yup. Saw that previously - I'm happy to risk 2 x £42 to help a company stay afloat. Stayed at Travelodge (and lots of others) a billion times over the years and had lot of fun while doing so. Worth the risk to say TY by keeping the faith. | |||

"You may be able to meet in groups of up to 6 people from 2 different households outside! Social distancing rules still apply. Unless the rules on interaction between different households changes on the 4th, the household rules when booking a hotel wont change." Single person households can interact with another household indoors as if they were part of the same household | |||

" For someone earlier who commented on it isn't the hotels job to Police these rules or who can access their property, has no grasp of the laws that exist in Licensed premises. That is, under Licensing laws which go back decades, any Licensed premises which have accommodation effectively can have guests staying "by invitation" Anyone who abuses that "invitation" can be asked to leave. If they refuse, the police can be called in and if asked by officers to leave and it's ignored, that person can be arrested. I've only had to use that rule 5 times in my career but I have that right to do so. Legally, I don't even have to supply any reason! Covid19 rules will fall under that 'Invitation' regulation. " or you have no grasp of what my post actually said at no point did i say hotels had no legal right i said it was ridiculous that hotels were being expected to police peoples behaviour in terms of the being from the same household thing | |||

"Will the hotels allow us to have vistors? that is my main concern " While the meeting outdoors rule is still in effect I would doubt it. But I suppose if one person from outside your household is in your bubble . . . 
Wait for the next update I guess.

"Hi all. Just wondering how many of you would think of staying in a hotel when they (on paper) open on 4the july? I saw a piece in the paper last night of what hotels will be doing and I am a general manager of a hotel and it scares me to death all the things we can and cant do, I know they are only guidelines but not following the guidelines and someone potentially getting the virus (no matter how many measures we put into place). Of course deep cleaning is always top priority but there is always a risk. Thanks Danish x" We're staying closed until the government change their policy. Currently if a hotel has a covid guest they have to stay in for 2 more weeks. No mention of who pays for that. No mention of how we still honour any other legal booking for that room. No addressing of the safety of the other guests. So we're just not going to open. When we do, it'll be one group per floor with a minimum stay of two nights and run at half capacity. Personally I think the government are treating us like a joke. | |||

However, for those on the food&beverage side, like myself, are still furloughed until the end of July at least as our cafe and bar are both shut."

"I'm assuming that some hotels will open progressively,if they have multiple locations. They can stagger their efforts to redesign layouts, learning as they go. As some locations rely on international tourists or businesses visitors, those venues may be some of the latter ones, unless they are sure of sufficient uk guests to keep them well occupied. The good guest news is that places may give a more peaceful sleep and rest, where hotels only allocate alternate rooms - would be great coordination to keep rooms above and below empty too and promote it as a selling point

" you think the virus will transfer through the ceiling and floor ? How come everyone living in flats hasn't caught it through this seepage ?"
i assume hotels have had to limit number of rooms being used to limit potential number of people in the corridor at the same time rather than anything actually to do with the rooms themselves, easiest way to do it is to space them out with a gap in the middle then you don't come out your door face to face with someone either but like you say if people don't stay the same number of nights the system is gubbed after night 1
the upstairs downstairs gaps is total nonsense | |||

"Having had covid 19 and survived after 15 days in ICU people seem to think this virus won't effect them after 4th July, and hotels will be safe, I personally don't think so!" We be open all the way through, housing NHS and other key workers. Not one staff member has been infected with the virus. But weve learnt what work best and already have all the government guidance in place. So people need to give hotels a chance. You'll be fine. | |||

Some hotels have doors/corridors that are open leading off to the rooms,which have always been no questioned asked,handy for swingers/escorts use,receptionist have always turned a blind eye and wouldn't know who is a guest or a visitor,as alot of different faces on a daily bases,use hotels Will somebody be manning the area checking your an official guest every time you pop in and out eg for a ciggie? Let alone trying to sneak an extra guest in to join you Also we all know if you go to a club near a social or club,there is usually visits to other rooms,how would they stop this? Sounds like hotels will become more like college dorms
dont think you are appreciating how much quieter hotels are and how much stricter their policies just now ... one way systems in place will probably mean all these extra entrances and exits are not in use
i think you are also doing a disservice to the hotel staff who almost definitely knew what you were up to all along ... being a receptionist doesnt make you stupid
It really doesn't make us stupid, we all know the signs etc, we all know what's going on!
I never said in my comments that any hotel receptionists/staff were stupid you must admit you turn a blind eye to the naughtiness that go on in hotels
They are general questions due to a couple originally asking, knowing staff do not question guests activities,the layout of hotels can be open layout,meaning after checking in you can go in and out freely,and only one corridor to rooms so a one way doesn't work
I have booked my first hotel meet ready for August,also requesting one of their smoking rooms,so I don't need to pass people going out for ciggie break and yes it's just me and the guy,just because I'm a single swingle doesn't mean I disrespect hotel policies,my name is on the booking
Actually staff do question guest's activities. In the company I work for we do CSE training and a lot of the signs of that coincide with swinging activity.
I've never been questioned I just look like a normal couple walking in
Probably depends which hotel company you stay with. Shocked that some hotels still allow smoking indoors though."Oh just remembered there was one hotel near a bmfc party,if you mention you were going to bmfc party at check in,they use to give free later checkout,so we would happily tell them | |||

Danish x" I see my usual Dayuse hotel is taking bookings from 13 July, are they likely to be applying track and trace, and how does it work please? | |||

While we do turn a blind eye to those coming in, however the blind eye is we allow you to come in but we do keep a close eye on how many subsequent people come in and leave, noise levels for other guests etc. For example, if you booked for 2 people and we saw you go up with more than one person or some people came in that have not checked in, going up to a room or floor they would be challenged here, as we are so small and we are practically the only members of staff here. We have to keep a close eye for fire regs etc, as long as we can note that down (discreetly) and you keep noise levels to a minimum for other guests then we have no issues x | |||

"Perhaps it's a local staffing problem. We know this one has been closed for the whole of the lockdown. Perhaps there is just not enough time to get things ready." Yes it’s still close enough to the opening date to be hopefully a short term thing | |||
