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

- Say clearly the dates you want, the room type and whether you want breakfast or not.
- Don't forget to mention any additional information or special requests.
- Ask them to confirm your booking. Give them your phone number if you prefer to be contacted that way.

What things do you ask for when you book a hotel room?
Before booking a hotel room, I check the review of other visitors, price and facilities. I do not interest to get discount or promotion. I only interest the hotel and staff service, food and facility. I do not want to ask any more.

Hi,
I ask whether dogs are accepted in the hotel.
I ask for dressing gown, slipper, an additional towel, especially when there's a spa aria. I like to have a bath in the hotel room. Also it should be accessible if we're travelling with children. We often use promotional codes in order to get a better price.

I have 5 years of experience in the hotel industry. I know how to book a hotel by mail and call. Now I'm gonna explain you. First the name of the hotel. Which hotel do you want to book? After that, you say I would like to stay in your hotel with my family. From 13 to 16 March. Could you please check whether the room is available on this date? I want a balcony view room. We are 5 members. We all are adults. So we want 2room and one extra mattress. Can you tell me the price including dinner? I'm waiting for your positive response.
Thanks
I know I do a lot of mistakes. I'm not good at the English language. Today is my 2 month of practice my learning English through British Council. I know it will work according to time.
