What now?<br><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>If you booked the hotel through a purely online platform.<br><br><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It\u2019s almost over. Because in an online plate or website, everything should be clearly described before you hit the purchase button.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A common mistake could only be that you were not aware of and missed reading it. The online platform will not take any responsibility for this case.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">One thing you can try your luck is to negotiate with the hotel manager.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Actually, it is not negotiable because the hotel does not do anything wrong.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">End up you need to pay for the extra bed, and you should.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>If you booked the hotel with a physical agency via an online platform.<br><br><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This issue consists of 2 causes. 1. It is already described on the page that you have to pay for an extra bed additionally but you just miss reading it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">2. It is not clearly described on the page and you assume on your own. \u201cHmm, I booked a standard room for 3 persons, there have to be 3 beds for us\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If you think like this, please read below. In this case, you can still contact your agency to be more informed.<br><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>If you booked the hotel via physical agency directly<br><br><\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In this case, you will be more covered. If you forgot to ask this question to the staff and the staff forgot to inform you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This headache issue will surely happen on the spot. Who wrong? When not nothing is mentioned in the voucher.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Actually, the regular says, that booking of 3 persons does not mean automatically 3 beds, especially in a standard room for 2 persons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It will be 3 beds only when it is stated in the voucher \u201c With Extra bed\u201d. When not it then means \u201cExtra Person\u201d<br><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Now what is an Extra Person?<br><br><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In the booking system of the hotel, a standard room which is normally offered for 2 persons, the room is designed to match with only a double bed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This means, regularly this is the room for 2 persons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If the customers attempt to stay in a standard room of 3 persons, yes the hotel can still allow you to do that.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As mentioned, this room is made for 2 persons, then the third person or the child is categorized to be an Extra Person sharing this room.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The meaning of Extra person is that he can use this room to take a shower, dress, or sleep but has to share The Bed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">There will not be an Extra Bed for him unless you buy it extra.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If the customers are 3 persons, they need to go for a triple room or family room (4 persons), which are designed for 3 \u2013 4 persons<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Now the question is why the agency does not describe it clearly if you book this standard room as 3 people, will you get an extra bed?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Because some room hotels provide an extra bed automatically when there is a child.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Some hotels do not and you need to buy it in extra. It is very individual.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The overseas agencies do not have the right information or maybe are too lazy to get it <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">and expect that the local representative will solve this on the spot for angry customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Do I still get an extra bed then?<br><br><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If you booked the hotel with a purely online platform. You have to buy it on the spot.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If you booked the hotel with a physical agency. You have to buy it on the spot, but mostly with a The agency normally has a strong relationship with the hotel. The hotel sometimes would help these customers as far as it can. Mostly they offer discounts.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">However, these can be proceeded only when there is enough space to set the extra bed in this room.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If the room you booked is really made for only 1 big bed one thing you can do is to upgrade the room to a bigger one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6084,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[217],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6083","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-issues-with-hotel"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.14 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Please clarify with your agencies\/hotel booking providers if you will have an extra bed for your child for sure.
