Hotels are now changing their strict check-in times. This is great, as there are some cases where travelers will miss the designated time (which was usually at 3:00 pm) due to traffic, delays, and other roadblocks along the way.
Some travelers might arrive in the area too early, tired and beaten down from the arduous flight they went through, and will have to wait for hours. This is why the rigid system of 3:00 pm for check-ins and 11:00 am - 12:00 am check-out gets on the nerves of tourists and travelers for years.
However, it seems that things are looking better for guests. Going to hotels and booking a room at any time is now available in various hotels around the globe. For example, Standard Hotels have their “Standard Time” option, where guests can leave and stay whenever they want. They have to pay extra, though.
Other establishments are also enforcing their own flexible time option for travelers. The rise of this very considerate trend was done in the hopes to eliminate the frustration of travelers not being able to rest or freshen up after a long flight.
Some that also attempted to provide this service found an increase in business, such as the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.
Here’s to the hope that flexible check-ins and check-outs will be a norm in all hotels and accommodations around the globe!
