Can hotels in Egypt refuse check-in because a guest is on a hotel blacklist?

Based on 1 discussion with 2 participants · Last activity: 16 days ago

TL;DR

Yes. Individual hotels may refuse check-in if a guest matches their internal blacklist. In the discussion, such lists were associated mainly with serious disruptive behaviour on hotel property.

What the community said

The messages report that a hotel may immediately decline check-in when a guest's name matches its internal blacklist. The examples involved British and Polish tourists and appear to refer to a hotel-level list, not an Egyptian government database.

Likely reasons discussed for being blacklisted include disruptive incidents such as shouting on the beach at night. This is not presented as an official rule for every hotel, but as a possible basis for sanctions by an individual property.

Another example of behaviour likely to trigger hotel complaints was using the pool around 3:00 a.m. while singing loudly. To avoid problems with future bookings, follow the quiet hours and pool rules set by your particular hotel.
