Frequently Asked Questions
More FAQsHow can I book a room for a few hours with HotelsByDay?
We don't believe in rushing. Which is why we offer flexible time bands ranging from 3 to 11 hours. HotelsByDay's time bands are predetermined and thus you cannot book a room 'by the hour.' Not only do we offer more convenient, lengthier time bands, but they come at a better value than booking by the minute, hour, or night.
When you need a room for a few hours to a day, simply search for the location and date you need. Browse hotels based on rates, available time-bands, amenities offered and more.
Are amenities included in the price of a day room?
Most hotels provide HotelsByDay guests with all available amenities. However, some hotels may have restrictions on some amenities (e.g. free breakfast) and are subject to each individual property's choice. Please check with your hotel's front desk.
Do day rates fluctuate?
Yes, day room rates change based on the hotel's availability. Hotels will set a rate on the website that can fluctuate based on demand and season.
