A document serving as official verification of a hotel reservation, typically delivered electronically. It contains critical details regarding the booking, such as guest name, hotel address, arrival and departure dates, room type, rate, and confirmation number. An example would be an automatically generated message received after completing an online booking, summarizing the reservation details and outlining hotel policies.
This type of documentation plays a crucial role in ensuring a smooth check-in process and minimizing potential misunderstandings between guests and hotel staff. It provides a readily accessible record of the agreed-upon terms of service. Historically, these confirmations were often provided as paper documents. However, electronic mail has become the standard delivery method due to its convenience and efficiency.
