| INTRODUCTION |
| British Hotel, Part 1: Check-In |
| In this lesson we’ll cover a vital part of your trip to the UK – checking-in at a hotel! |
| SURVIVAL PHRASES |
| There are many accommodation options in the UK, including hotels, bed and breakfasts, and hostels. But the language you use to check-in will almost always be the same. |
| There are two possible phrases that you can use when entering a hotel. If you have already booked a room, you can say: “I have a reservation.” “I have a reservation.” |
| If you haven’t booked a room, then you could say: “I would like a room.” We start with the polite request ‘I would like’, followed by what you want, in this case ‘a room’. |
| “I would like a room.” |
| After this, the hotel staff will probably ask for your name. |
| They will say: “Your name, please.” You may also be asked: “Can you spell it?” This is a common question because people don’t want to make mistakes when spelling names. |
| Okay, to close out this lesson we’d like you to practice what you’ve just learned. I’ll provide you with the phrase, and you’re responsible for shouting it out loud. You have a few seconds before I give you the answer. So good luck! |
| - I have a reservation |
| - I would like a room |
| - Your name, please? |
| - Can you spell it? |
