Hotels & stays
Book, check in, request things, resolve problems.
1Learn the essentials
Hotel English is a small set of predictable requests — checking in, asking for things, and fixing problems.
- Check in: “I have a reservation under [name].”
- Make requests: “Could I get an extra towel / a late checkout?”
- Report problems: “The AC isn't working — could someone take a look?”
2Warm up & speak
Phrase 1 / 6
Do you have any rooms available for tonight?
¿Tienen habitaciones libres para esta noche?
3Lock it in
¿Tienen habitaciones libres para esta noche?
Say it in English, then check yourself.
4Practise speaking
Not the room you booked
Your confirmation says a quiet room at the back. The card opens one beside the lift, above the kitchen.
You did it if
You described the difference rather than your mood, and left with another room or a promise you could repeat.
Nothing here is listening or marking you — this is your own rehearsal, and you tick a move when you have said it out loud. For live correction, take the same situation to Rumi, your AI Tutor, in the role-play step below.
5Practise writing
Write to the hotel before you arrive
Your flight lands at 1:30 a.m., long after the hotel's front desk closes for the night, and you are travelling with a colleague. Write a message to the hotel: give them your booking, tell them when you will arrive, ask how to get in at that hour, and make one more request you genuinely need.
Self-check
Tick each point once your draft covers it.
