[quote=Anonymous]Wow. My family (both sides) are the exact opposite. It is considered offensive to get a hotel. Everyone is expected to cram into the house, kids on the floor (sometimes 8 of them), etc. I look around my house and realize we have all these extra beds and pull out couches and service for 24! In a million years, I wouldn't expect my mom or in-laws to stay in a hotel, and if we tried to get a hotel when visiting them, I'm pretty sure we'd be disowned. So you need to figure out if that is the kind of family DH comes from, and if so, just know you are bucking tradition and hurting feelings, so you need to approach it that way. Not that you have to let them stay there, but that you need to know that what you are asking may seem very rude and impersonal to them and so should be handled sensitively. Your DH should have a sense of his now family in this regard. Ask him where they stayed when visiting family when he was younger.[/quote]
