Do Hotels in China refuse foreigners?

Sadly, they sometimes do but here's a few ideas to overcome the problem. For the full script go here: https://open.substack.com/pub/jerrygr... And for the copy of the letter I use to allow me to stay in reluctant hotels, feel free to copy, save, paste, print and use how you like. Here it is: 尊敬的酒店工作人员: 您好! 我是一名来中国旅行的外国游客,非常感谢您提供的服务。最近,中国出台了新政策,要求所有合法经营的酒店不得以“不具备涉外资质”为由拒绝接待外国客人。为了让您的酒店更好地遵守规定,同时避免不必要的麻烦,我想简单说明一下相关要求,希望能对您有所帮助。 1. 最新政策规定 根据中国商务部、公安部等部门的通知,**所有正规注册的酒店都必须接待外国客人**,只要他们提供有效护照并配合完成登记。酒店不再需要“涉外资质”才能接待外国人。 2. 如何登记外国客人? 登记流程其实很简单: 请客人出示 **护照**(或其他国际旅行证件)。 在酒店系统中录入 *姓名、国籍、护照号码、签证信息* 等基本资料。 24小时内 向当地公安机关报送住宿信息(很多地方已支持手机或电脑直接上传,操作很方便)。 如果系统有问题或您不确定如何操作,可以随时联系附近的派出所,他们会提供帮助。 3. 拒绝外国客人可能带来的问题 如果酒店无正当理由拒绝接待符合条件的外国客人,可能会面临: **罚款或警告**(根据中国法律,最高可罚1万元)。 **客人投诉**(通过12345热线或旅游平台,影响酒店声誉)。 **后续检查更严格**(多次违规可能被重点监管)。 4. 一个小请求 很多外国游客(包括我)都遇到过被酒店拒绝的情况,这会让旅行变得很不方便。现在政策已经很明确了,希望您的酒店能顺利接待我们。如果有任何登记上的疑问,公安机关会很乐意帮忙。 感谢您的理解与配合!祝生意兴隆! 此致 敬礼 [一位外国旅客]
