how late are they going to be??
I think travel insurance can cover that sort of thing for missed connection etc.
especially if the Conrad is their first hotel after arriving in Thailand.
id call the manager go into the conrad BKK website the names of the managers are there
ask for them personally.
I am sure they would let u have the ongoing days after arrival but wouldnt stretch the res beyond orig dates so insurance should cover at least a normal room.
kepp us informed of the outcome

asienflieger, what a pitty that you are not there anymore 
I also saw your message in the Gulf Air deal forum.
family member? i hardly believe they can insert such a restriction. it is common practice that friends travel together and friends do usually not have the same family names.
is anyone else there from next week on?

This was a restriction just for this deal to prevent resale of the rooms. They are reasonable, I think any proof of relationship would do if different surnames. And as I said before YMMV, but I would call and verify in advance.

I thought same surname is required to check in.
If you and your wife stay there, one room under your name and another room under your wife's name.
You should make sure they allow different surname for additional room if you want to invite someone who you do not know.
Of course, you can negotiate there, but is it worthwhile to hustle for anyone who you do not know???

you are correct
we booked a 2nd room for family and there was a big stink on the saturday when they arrived. they said absolutely they would not let them use the room for that price until I asked for the GM and told them that both me and my husband were both diamond and then they relented and let us have both rooms.
we had to cancel a booking last week as we decided not to fly.

Why didnt you check-in yourself for the 2nd room if you are already there ? I dont think they would check who sleeps in the rooms every night.
Or you mean to say they wouldnt allow you to check-in for the 2nd room since you couldnt physically occupy both rooms on the same nights ?

Mr and Mrs T book in fri for a 5 night stay
we have second room booked in same name for sat 4 nights
on arrival of the second occupiers they took the passports then came over and said he is not same name he cannot stay on this rate
I say he is family
they say his name is different so he cannot stay in our name
I say well I am diamond and husband is diamond put my name on the other room
they go away and talk
they come back
no
i say ok then i want the pres suite as booked
if you do not honor the 2 suite bookings
I say get GM they go away come back and say for this time we will honor the booking and put your name in
at the time it was early days of this promo and no one had experienced a 2 room same name thing.
As I was not aware of this I did not put a second name in the booking
now do you get it!

It is not a nice game that they were playing with you. I stay often in a variety of hotels but I never make bookings in other names than mine. Always book with my profile and never had an issue when someone else stayed in the second room. I hope that they will not try to play games with me when I arrive in the President suite. Is anyone else there next week?
