Do you put your children down as hotel room occupants? I didn’t realize most people do not. Are you charged extra?

I had not realized that in discussion with friends that people are only listing 1-2 adults not the minors in the room.

Of course, it literally asks you when you book the hotel.

Yes, because they're teens and I want the room options for 4 people not the one king bed. I just put them as adults because I'm lazy and hate picking their ages every single time. It makes absolutely no difference in price.

It doesn’t matter if they’re not teens you’re gonna fit all four of you and a bed even with toddlers? One time they try to do this to us to “upgrade“ us from two double beds to a king and we’re like no no! There are four of us!

Do they charge you more? Why does that matter? Trying to be cheap?

No. Go try to book a hotel room right now and you will see it Ask for how many adults and how many children

You are not charged extra in most US hotels as long as it’s not an all inclusive hotel and you aren’t exceeding room occupancy. They just don’t care.

In Europe, it will cost you more but not in the US.

In Us no, in Europe yes. But we usually book them in separate suites bc their nanny was always with them anyway.

The only fee should be if an extra bed is requested IMO.

It does not matter. At all.

List everyone. When we run house reports twice a day (literally print them out), that lets us know how many people to look for in case of emergency. Imagine us not knowing you had 2 young children in the event of a fire, earthquake, building collapse, etc and you not being able to tell emergency services that your kids are buried under debris.
