Time that check in opens?
 
Hi,

Does anyone know what time check in opens the day before - either app or website if there is a difference?

This is for the UK if that makes a difference?

Assuming that the rooms are showing, I wish to try and grab a room as early as possible.

Ta :)

My experience has been that it is 7am in the timezone of the hotel.

Definitely 6am the day before , in the U.K. Mate.

Frequently 7 or 8am here on the West Coast for most bookings. Occasionally a little later in the morning...like 9 or 10am. Almost always several hours before I get the e mail announcing I can check in.

Thanks! Was about 5 past 6.

However, they do not have any rooms to show at the moment please continue to check in. .

So I will have to wait anyway haha

I found a copy of the 2017 Hampton brand standards to address a question in another thread and just happened to stumble across

OLCI opens the day before, but some hotels don't process Diamond upgrades until the day of your arrival.

So if you think you might get an upgrade, don't OLCI the day before. If you'd prefer simply to ensure you have the best possible regular room, then OLCI as soon as rooms start showing up in the app.

I know upgrades of any kind are rare, so I usually just OLCI whenever I think about it. But once in a while I'll wait and get exec floor or something.

Thanks guys!

This was for a specific booking requiring the best possible balcony for a sporting event :)

No upgrade was possible or even wanted :)
