Hotel room bookings

[devion]

Like to check whether any of you had booked a room for 2 person & then brought a 3rd person to stay together inside the room? I saw some hotels booking having additional charges for 3rd person if he/she is an adult,kid is FOC....so what if I book for 2 adults & 1 kid? But actual I bring 3 adults?

Eg.Rooms with 2 double beds is able to house 4 adults...price for the same room with 2 adults is much lesser than 3 or 4 adults.Maybe one can say there will be less towels,pillow if book with 2 adults....what if I use 2 adults & 2 kids? I only pay for the adults but still will get 4 pax of towels,pillows..etc.

I do not think the hotel would be able to check...or can they? 1 easy way is for the 3rd person not be present during checkin,he/she can always go to the room later.

Anybody did this before? Any past experiences with hotel discovering it & then made the customer pay a surcharge?

Most hotels I know will ask to make a copy of your passports so how will you explain the absence of children at the point of check-in?

The extra charges for the third person is because of the need for extra bed. Are you sure the hotel will allow you to book a double bed room for only 2 guests?
