Hotels and sleeping with toddlers

[Anonymous]

Honestly your daughter will probably fall asleep just fine in the room with you there as long as the light are mostly off. At the end of a typical vacation day kids are exhausted and just collapse into their beds/cribs/whatever.

Get the pack and play in the bedroom, put the child to bed and close the door. When it's time for you to go to bed, you go in quietly and go to bed without waking your child.

I don't know where you're going, but Hyatt House is also set up like the Marriott's mentioned above.

+1. Get one with two queens. Put the child in one, and you can sleep later in the other.

We've done this a bunch of different ways. Push bedtime and everyone just goes to sleep at the same time (usually around 9ish). Have one adult hang out in a dark room watching something on an iPad or listening to music while the other goes and does something less boring. Read quietly in the room with a very dim light and the toddler's pack and play on the other side of the room.

After a disastrous hotel stay when DS was 12 months old (wouldn't sleep once he realized we were in the same room with him) we only book hotel rooms that have a room divider of some sort.

Agree.
