Contact your hotel to let them know you will check-in late.

You will need the following when checking in to the hotel:
For Pay When You Stay Retail hotel reservations, we do not charge your credit card but instead pass your credit card information along to the hotel in order to secure your reservation. For those reservations, the hotel will charge your card in local currency for the room rate and for taxes. Some hotels, consisting mostly of hotels outside of the United States, charge a tax inclusive rate that includes your room rate and taxes. If the hotel you select is charging a tax inclusive rate, it will be indicated on your contract page prior to finalizing your reservation.
For other hotel reservations, we will charge your credit card directly in the currency you selected. You will be informed on our website whether we are charging you directly or are passing your credit card information to the hotel to secure your reservation. In connection with facilitating your hotel transaction when we charges your card, the charge to your payment method will include a charge for Taxes and Service Fees. This charge includes an estimated or anticipated amount to recover the amount we pay to the hotel in connection with your reservation for taxes owed by the hotel including, without limitation, sales and use tax, occupancy tax, room tax, excise tax, value added tax or other similar taxes. In certain locations, the tax amount may also include government imposed service fees or other fees not paid directly to the taxing authorities but required by law to be collected by the hotel. The amount paid to the hotel in connection with your reservation for taxes may vary from the amount we estimate and include in the charge to you. The balance of the charge for Taxes and Service Fees is a fee we retain as part of the compensation for our services and to cover the costs of your reservation, including, for example, customer service costs. The charge for Taxes and Fees varies based on a number of factors including, without limitation, the amount we pay the hotel and the location of the hotel where you will be staying, and may include profit that we retain.
Except as described below, we are not the vendor collecting and remitting taxes to the applicable taxing authorities. Our hotel suppliers, as vendors, include all applicable taxes in the amount billed to us and we pay over such amounts directly to the vendors. We are not a co-vendor associated with the vendor with whom we book or reserve our customer's travel arrangements. Taxability and the appropriate tax rate and the type of applicable taxes vary greatly by location.
For transactions involving hotels located within certain jurisdictions, the charge to your debit or credit card for Taxes and Service Fees includes a payment of tax that we are required to collect and remit to the jurisdiction for tax owed on amounts we retain as compensation for our services.
Depending on the property you stay at you may also be charged (i) certain mandatory hotel specific service fees, for example, resort fees (which typically apply to resort type destinations and, if applicable, may range from 10 to 40 USD or its equivalent per day), energy surcharges, newspaper delivery fees, in-room safe fees, tourism fees, or housekeeping fees and/or (ii) certain optional incidental fees, for example, parking charges, minibar charges, phone calls, room service and movie rentals, etc. These charges, if applicable, will be payable by you to the hotel directly in local currency at checkout. When you check in, a credit card or, in the hotel's discretion, a debit card will be required to secure these charges and fees that you may incur during your stay. Please contact the hotel directly as to whether and which charges or service fees apply.
Please note that we are unable to facilitate a rebate of Canadian Goods and Services Tax ("GST") for customers booking Canadian hotel accommodations utilizing our services.
