Follow your hotel’s established script when welcoming day guests. If one isn’t available, create a short, consistent message to provide a warm and professional experience for all guests.

To look up a guest, go to your home Dashboard or the Reservations screen. Use their name or ResortPass booking ID to find their reservation.

Verifying all guests helps maintain hotel safety, security, and prevents unauthorized walk-ins.
