Subject: Booking 2 nights next week

Dear Ascot Hotel,

I would like to reserve an accessible single room for two nights with breakfast on the 22 and 23 of April. Could I have a quiet room with a view if possible, please?

I will arrive at about 10 p.m. and I have an early meeting the next morning, so please could you leave an iron and ironing board in the room?

I have a promotional code (MH2219). Please can you confirm that it is £80 per night with breakfast included?

Please could you confirm the booking? Let me know if you need any further information.

Many thanks.

With kind regards,

David Mathews

Tips

  1. When writing an email to a hotel, you can start with Hello or Dear (hotel name).
  2. Say clearly the dates you want, the room type and whether you want breakfast or not.
  3. Don't forget to mention any additional information or special requests.
  4. Ask them to confirm your booking. Give them your phone number if you prefer to be contacted that way.

I would like to ask for free wi-fi and parking when I book a hotel. Sometimes I would also ask for extra bath towels.

When I book a hotel room, I ask them to arrange attached kitchen and bath room.

The things I ask for when I book a hotel room is a room with a nice or a beautiful view of the sea or the garden, a room with Wi-fi, a room with an iron and also a room with breakfast included.

Dear Ascot Hotel,

I would like to reserve a single room for three nights with breakfast from November 15 to 17. Could I have a quiet room with wifi, please?

I will arrive at about 11 a.m. so could you recommend a restaurant near the hotel? In addition, I have a promotional code(MH2219). Please can you confirm that it is $50 per night with breakfast included?

Please could you confirm the booking? Let me know if you need any further information. Besides, it is fine to contact me by phone and my phone number is xxxxxxxxxxx.

Many thanks.

With kind regards,
David Mathews

I don't know if the above expression is correct so I will very appreciate it if someone could correct my mistakes.

Hello dream123,

I'm afraid we don't correct our users' texts, in part because it would take too much time. But I can say that your text is very well written. My only suggestion would be to change 'Besides, it is fine' to 'Feel free'.

All the best,
Kirk

Price, wi-fi and breakfast.

To be honest, I don't have any experience staying in the hotel. When I travel I just stay one of the monestry in that town. It's cheap and we stay many people. But we don't have to request breakfast or dinner, we just donate some money to that monestry as a donation.

When I want to book a hotel room I usually ask about price. I usually ask to have a room with a view when I stay for a long time, otherwise the view is not important when I want to stay just for one or two days. I always ask about their restaurant, if they have I ask about food prices. I always ask them to confirm my reservation because I don't want to face any problems later.
