Say I will land at 0500 , and hope to get to hotel with the room ready.
is it plausible to not stay the night before (booked) but arrive in the early morning?

Thanks for any insight
Book the night before to ensure you have a room after getting off your red-eye. I would use the app to mobile check-in AND then using the chat feature, let the hotel know of your "late" arrival, and tell them to hold your room. Reason for this, some hotels consider the guest a no-show if you don't check in prior to midnight, and the reservation is auto-cancelled.
