How do I get a late check-out?
Ask the hotel front desk the night before you leave. An extra hour or two is often free, while a longer late check-out is usually charged as a part-day rate.

How to get a late check-out - step by step
Step 1: Add the request when you book
Enter a special request during checkout on trip1, or open the Manage booking link in your confirmation email afterwards. This puts the note on the hotel's reservation, which helps but does not guarantee anything.
Step 2: Ask reception the night before
This is the step that decides the answer. Housekeeping rotas are built early each morning, so a request made the previous evening is far easier to accommodate than one made at 10am.
Step 3: Name the exact time you need
Asking for 1pm because your flight leaves at 5pm gets a better response than asking vaguely for a late check-out. Ask what it costs at the same time so nothing appears on your bill unexpectedly.
Step 4: Fall back on luggage storage
If the hotel is full, check out on time and leave your bags at reception. Most properties store luggage free of charge and many let you use the pool, gym, or shower facilities afterwards.
