A hotel receptionist has warned tourists they could be at risk of losing their room if they make a simple error.<\/p>\n
The receptionist spoke to the expert travel team at eshores to share the inside tip for British tourists.<\/p>\n
A spokesperson said: \u201cAccording to hotel receptionists, many budget hotels will purposely overbook rooms to maximise profits based on the assumption that some guests won\u2019t show up.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf they end up with too many people checking in, they\u2019ll move you to another hotel and cover taxi costs, but this is obviously a significant inconvenience for most people.\u201d<\/p>\n
Just like airlines, hotels could overbook rooms if they think a lot of people might not turn up for their booking.<\/p>\n
