TripBidKeep your reservation details together
Keep the confirmation number, property name and address, dates, rooms, full party, accepted cancellation conditions and payment schedule. Use your booking history and the reservation information supplied through the booking journey as the reference for the stay.
A saved screenshot of an earlier search price is not the same as your confirmation. Keep the actual booked offer and policy details, especially if you compared several properties or room arrangements before choosing.
Contact the host using the reservation information
Use the host contact details provided for your booking. Include your confirmation number, name and dates so the host can identify the stay. Be specific about the arrangement you are asking for, and avoid sending full payment-card details or unnecessary personal documents by ordinary messages.
Example arrival message
“Hello, I have a confirmed booking for 8–12 October for two adults and two children, aged 4 and 12. Our estimated arrival is 19:30. Please confirm the check-in arrangements. My confirmation number is the one shown on my reservation.”
This is a sample message, not a real guest's correspondence. Replace the details with your own and include the actual confirmation number only in your private communication with the property. Any separate request for a cot or a special arrangement must be discussed with the property; it is not a field in TripBid's accommodation request form.
Confirm practical details before travelling
Ask about access instructions, the check-in window, reception arrangements for a late arrival, parking if needed and any essential bed or accessibility requirements. A request is not an approval: wait for the host to confirm a special arrangement before relying on it.
Illustrative late-arrival arrangement
Your flight lands at 22:10 and the property normally welcomes guests earlier. Tell the host your realistic arrival time, allowing for travel from the airport. Ask what late check-in arrangement is available rather than assuming a 24-hour reception or a key box.
Illustrative two-room arrangement
You booked two rooms and would prefer them next to one another. Ask the host to confirm what is possible. Two rooms in a booking do not automatically mean connecting rooms or adjacent doors.
Keep later payments and changes tied to the booking terms
If a balance remains, check its amount, due date and the instructions attached to the booking. For example, a €548 balance due before arrival should be planned separately from the €137 deposit already paid on a €685 stay. Those are illustrative amounts; use the figures on your own booking.
If your plans change, review the cancellation conditions before making a decision and discuss any requested stay changes with the host. A message asking for new dates does not itself update a reservation or guarantee the same price. Keep written confirmation of any arrangement that is agreed.
