I think they should stay in a hotel. They know the arrangement at the house and if that does not work for them, get a hotel.

Why can't one of the kids give up their room and they bunk with you or the kids together? This seems like the most reasonable, logical thing to do.

I understand why you would want them to visit. Aside from your DH, it's important for your kids as well. I do think your post is a little of the feeling that you want them to come w/o you being inconvenienced whatsoever (bed early, private space, etc.) You don't sound very welcoming. Maybe they pick up on that? You need to be a bit more flexible. And kick one of the kids out of their room.
