TL;DR

If your booking starts the day before arrival, you'll get immediate check-in. Otherwise, expect to wait, pay extra, or get lucky — early morning arrivals often end up with the worst rooms.

What the community said

Even for morning arrivals, the hotel may postpone check-in several times: the front desk may be waiting for daily departures so a newly vacated room can be assigned to the arriving guest.

Early morning arrivals who are tired from the journey often get assigned the least desirable rooms. Hotels tend to give the leftover options to guests checking in before the standard time.

If your reservation starts the day before your arrival, you can check in immediately upon landing without any wait.

Book from the day before = instant check-in

If your booking starts on the day of arrival, your options are: wait until standard check-in time, pay an early check-in fee, or hope a room happens to be available.
