I'm hoping the FT crew can offer some advice. I am traveling to Italy with my husband and son next July (I know, not the best time but no choice). I would like to use points for stays in Rome and/or Venice.

I would really like to stay at the Boscolo Palace Roma. However, when I search for "2 adults and 1 child" it says they cannot accommodate this number. I believe they may also say they don't do roll-away. I'm experiencing this with several hotels...either can't accommodate or have to get two rooms which I don't have the points for or really want to do.

Anyone have experience with registering with two adults and then bringing your child. One problem I might have is he is 15, which is considered a child in the U.S. but I don't think it is in Europe. Before you blast me, I don't mind paying extra for him to stay...but in the same room.

I may have to forgo this hotel, but if not I would really love to stay there. Any advice? Any experience? Will they kick us out if we show up with our son? Again, want to use points to save money. Thanks for any help.
