How do you handle the walk past reception

[Thomas1002345]

Have you ever be stopped and ask what your room is? How did you handle is?

[jamiekinkxxx]

I very rarely go to a SP that is staying in a hotel, but when I do I've never been asked.

[Cheltclient]

No. Thankfully. I don’t know what I’d say. Guess you could just say you’re meeting your girlfriend and say the room you are literally heading to. They prob know you’re off to fuck a hooker. Wonder what they could do though. I never really care if someone knows what I’m up to.

I always pretend I’m on the phone as I walk past reception. Figure it would be rude for them to interrupt

[RandomGuy99]

I head to the lifts like I know where I'm going usually the SP lets me know where they are or I have a look on Google Maps to figure it out beforehand.  Then I chat to whoever is in the lift like I'm a guest.  The staff probably know what is going on, but I have never been stopped. I did twice have to sign into a building at reception after being challenged by the security guard. I just signed a fake name and no problems. I just made up a story about us working on a presentation that had to be ready for the morning and he didn't know if the colleague I was visiting was a man or woman.   The guard probably didn't believe a word of it, but hey no harm done and I signed out of the building when I left 2 hrs later.

Strangely nobody has ever commented on my dark overcoat, hat and sunglasses even on December evenings.

I did once get clocked by the receptionist at the Holiday Inn at Heathrow, but she only saw me on the way out.

Just try to look relaxed and like you belong and not guilty.

@ OP - I wonder if you're cut out for punting.
This is your third "should I be worried about" thread.

I suggest you assess the risks as you see them and decide if it's worth it 

Why's the hotel going to stop you if you look confident in where you're going.
If they do - have an excuse ready, perhaps say you're meeting a Colleague / Friend / GF / Hooker 
I'd be more worried about bumping into a colleague / boss / wife / relative, who may ask what I'm doing in a local hotel near where I work when I should be in the office.

I occasionally punt in a top notch(ish) business hotel near me, I carry an laptop / briefcase and walk with purpose. 

[RandomGuy99]

Most hotel receptionist have seen it all. They don't particularly care as long as you leave and don't cause any trouble or damage while you're there. There more looking for people who are looking to break into rooms and remember most hotels have security cameras, so you may be on camera on your way to the SP's room. Just act normal.  People in hotels sometimes have visitors and you very rarely might get challenged. If you do, then just stay calm and give them your cover story. Most will be fine with it provided you remain calm and polite. Worst case thry might call the room and the SP may be asked if she is expecting a visitor. She'll say yes and you'll he in.

Worst case you get stopped and the SP is asked to come collect you (SP in clothes would be good at this point) or they deny you access and you walk out and call the SP to explain you got stopped. I've not heard of anyone getting stopped, so I think it's very very very very unlikely.

Once you've done it a few times you'll be less nervous.

Oh and don't go staring at reception as you go in. Look occupied by something else.  If the receptionist says hello or good evening reply back to them.

SPs usually suss out escorting friendly venues, so trust in the SP's selection of venue too.

Cleaners have probably seen more than receptionists 

Worst case, the helpful receptionist asks which room you're visiting and insists on showing you to the room, knocks for you and experience magic door with naked SP behind
If that happens, I suggest you offer to take it from there.

Yeah OP does seem overly paranoid. Which doesn't help his cause since it's the nervous looking ones that people spot. I behave like I do when I'm in a hotel, for work or pleasure. Be chilled and say hi to any staff if it would be natural to do so, making eye contact. I often ask for directions to the lifts, even if I know where they are. Maybe OP should think about doing outcalls.

[Nagilum]

Happened once at a Hotel in Heathrow. I said I was visiting a friend, but the secrurity guard was having none of it at 11pm. I abandoned the punt and went home at that stage. It's something that can happen, but happens very rarely.

[webpunter]

OP
As your are the nervous type, here's a tip
Going in
Try putting one foot in front of the other
Repeat & repeat .....
Coming out
Do the above in reverse

He might look funny walking backwards on the way out though.

Try to not fall over.

[Billy no mates]

Hold a phone next to your ear and no one will talk to you, the rest is about walking with confidence in the correct direction.

[Trotter671]

I always arrive a bit early and head for the bar/cafe (Starbucks if it's a Hamlet type place) and have a coffee or water and just chill out and look as though I'm staying there until it's playtime - then just head to the lift. Never had a problem.

I normally have a small rucksack with my towel, moisturiser, condoms, water/juice anyway so usually blend in with being a hotel guest.

[Adoniron]

Wear a suit, carry a laptop bag and walk in like you own the place.

[RedKettle]

I was once in my hotel room and the WG I was seeing was stopped as unknown to me the hotel had a do on and was only admitting guests.  I had to go down and collect her from the front door. No problem but i am sure they knew what was going on, lets say we did not look like a couple!

[webpunter]

You've forgotten:  ordnance survey map, compass & torch 
WTF have you got moisturizer for ?
Johnsons is acceptable

Edit:  i concurr on water, a small bottle not some wanky fitness jobby 

[webpunter]

walk in like you own the place.

I suggest a bluey, nodders, mints & enough folding to double the booking time and / or pay for xtras

[contentguy]

…….Maybe OP should think about doing outcalls.

Now there’s another stack of risk assessments!
- what if she gets stopped in the hotel receptions?
- what happens if they ask her what room she’s going to?
- if in his place, what happens if the neighbours see her arriving / leaving / fancy her?
- or he hosts @ home and his wife comes home early…

[RandomGuy99]

You could try:

1. Running by reception - FAIL
2. Commando crawl past reception - FAIL
3. Walk really quickly past reception while staring at the receptionist - FAIL
4. Dress as a standing lamp and slowly walk your way to the lifts stopping every minute to blend into the background - FAIL
5. Find clothing that matches the decor of the hotel and hug the walls so nobody notices you - FAIL
6. Rush in and set off the fire alarm and get up to the SP's room while everyone else is evacuating the building - FAIL

[webpunter]

@CG & @RG99 

[jimbobted]

They don't give a fuck. I rocked up to a hotel in London in December with WG in tow to check into the day use room I'd booked. Checked out 4 hours later and WG got the concierge to look after her suitcase full of outfits and sex toys whilst we went for lunch.
No problem at all.

[webpunter]

Risk assessement forms need to be completed & submitted prior to punting

- if in his place, what happens if the neighbours see her arriving / leaving / fancy her?

A mate of mine got caught on the very same & the outcome wasn't a surprise
The neighbours jealous bitch wife [pig ugly boring as 'bedroom' taps turned off forever ago & probably a Mnetter] dobbed him in

- or he hosts @ home and his wife comes home early…

More like his mum 

[webpunter]

They don't give a fuck

Not a sausage
They are just interested in room filled / ££
& very unlikely to cause problems
Plus the room gets cleaned & maybe re-let on the same day [could be for the next punter]
When you reference toys, do you mean like Scaletrix ? 

Edit: hotels are full of people civvy shagging & hookering, helps them stay in business
When the receptionists see touring SPs rocking up every now & again they'll clock em / no doubt recognise em within 0.5secs
& be hoping for a decent cash tip on departure
Then there are the concierges [more often than not male]
Who can make loads on providing hookering intel & lining em up

[Dylanbob]

Never had an issue, but would focus on the day time if you are worried.

If you encounter staff on the way up be friendly, more so than you would in real life.

Get the sp to tell you where the stairs or life are pre working in. Especially for smaller hotels.

If you can have a phone or headphones pretend to be using it. 

[Dylanbob]

Also make sure your flys are done up on the way out

[FiveKnuckles]

The word 'shameless' comes to mind once you've walk past receptionist a few times.  5min later you may have your face buried in conveyor punani. 
Reading some of the reviews have me  or  .  As the veterans say, it's not for everyone.

Only thing stopping me is bumping into someone I know.

[bristolnick]

I jus out where the lift is and walk in that direction and try to ignore the reception. Never been stopped and there is no one else in the reception i pretend to be on my phone and " Just going back for a shower mate, will meet you in a bit"

[Southernbloke]

Just one thing I would say is that some hotels that provide free parking you have to enter your car reg into a screen on the receptionists desk. I always make a point of saying hello to whoever is behind the desk because as a previous member says they have seen it all.
As someone who works in the hospitality business I can say that usually you can spot a wg checking in a mile of because they are one of the very few customers who have done all the pre check in online forms, don’t try to check in early, never get drunk and have arguments and on check out have left the room tidy.
Personally I would have an entire hotel of wg rather than “ ordinary “ customers

I'm actually with the OP and this is one of the reasons that I don't really like hotel punts 

I'm OK if i've been to the hotel before and know the layout but I hate walking in and having to quickly scan around to work out which way to go etc.

As for girls giving you directions well some do it OK but half of these girls are so fucking scatty they don't know whether they are coming or going.
I've asked for directions before and been told to walk in then turn left instead of right, i've been told "Just get to the fucking room" and one girl was confused to what hotel she was actually in 

There was a hotel in / near Preston that didn't like WG's working there and I punted a girl who said she had been publicly removed with the Manager openly commenting how they didn't tolerate girls plying their trade in that establishment as he escorted her out so that other guests could hear.

Must have been 6 or 7 years ago in another Preston hotel and a different Manager / area Manager turned up and spotted random men coming and going to a few rooms every 30 minutes or hour.
Apparently she looked like a 16 stone shot putter and physically stood at the entrance asking all the men what their room number was before letting them enter and turning blokes away if they said specific rooms.
Another girl I punted said she had punters calling from the car park saying they couldn't get in so she called it a day and checked out, this must have been 6 or 7 years ago and i've never punted in that hotel since as word got round and girls swerved the place.

I sympathise with this. I've had SPs tell me they've had problems with management and/or been kicked out. It happens but not so much, in my experience, at the bigger, inner city hotels. That said, I punted one SP in a one of the big places in Tower Hill who sent me on a magical mystery tour through the restaurant to some secondary lifts. One of the serving staff was laying out for evening service and asked if I needed help since I looked lost. Just smiled and styled it out. She even walked me to the lifts.

If you're worried about it, go with an experienced SP who works the hotel scene and knows the ones to pick to avoid hassle for all parties. Some might even work the hotel staff - give some money to the maids for extra towels and privacy, and maybe pay off the manager in whatever currency works.

Each to their own preferences, but as observed earlier, last year the OP was concerned about punting in residential places:
https://www.ukpunting.com/index.php?topic=335246.msg3483750#msg3483750

I'd prefer some hotels to others, e.g. the Village groups have so much going on with Starbucks / Gym activity that it's pretty anonymous and lots of excuses for being there.

[JontyR]

Apologies if this should be placed as a separate topic, but does any of the brainiacs on here have any thoughts on the legal position of the hotel in such an instance? The advice pages on legality etc all talk about multiple girls working under the same roof, but does a hotel class as a number of different dwellings?

A number of old school independent hotels round my way have been converted into care homes, but one wonders if there was a potential market for a whoretel catering for touring escorts and those punters who may want to see an outcall only SP.

[Southernbloke]

I think most hotels and wg are happy with “ don’t ask don’t tell “

[southcoastpunter]

whilst i am not legally qualified, my take is that as a hotel that was "WG friendly" but operated as an "open to all" hotel it would be ok but as a hotel that only allowed WG, it would fall fowl of current legislation.

i suspect the problem would be that even if a hotel started as the first, it would become known that it was a WG/punter hotel and "normal" guests would be put off and it would become the second by default and hence attract the attention of the authorities etc. Additional side issues would be things like funding  - would say Barclays Bank be happy to provide a loan or an overdraft to enable prostitution to take place. Probably not.

If you knowingly marketed or positioned your hotel as a place for SPs then you'd probably be on difficult ground legally.

However, if you have a number of independent guests all doing their own thing with separate bookings and rooms and it then turns out that some of them are escorting, then you could say you didn't know and probably nobody could argue otherwise.

The ten floors of hoors in South Kensington seems to get on OK.

[bigboy96]

I've punted in a hotel twice, once in Bournemouth  and once in London. I just walked in with my phone to my ear, spotted the lifts, and up I went.  The receptionists at both places were far too busy to take any notice of me passing the desk. 

[Punterperson1971]

Only been stopped once by reception,I was going to see an ebony wg who I’d seen before and reviewed but they asked me questions just as I was about to go up the stairs I simply turned round straight past them with no further issues

The owners - some Lord type CBA to check - has got loads of shit in the press

The biggest issue with this place is getting lost & trying to find whichever apartment it is
& also how to exit the building tanks emptied
If there was ever a fire 

Donkeys ago i recall reading that some unfortunate UKP'er was coming out of one of the apartments
To come face to face with one of his OHs girlie friends going into hers opposite
& the corridors aint exactly wide
How unlucky is that in the rabbit warren with however many apartments it is

Yikes. Hard to blag your way out of that. If the girly friend actually lives there then she can validate any story you try to conjure up in the half second you have after saying "Oh hello..." I agree it's a warren but it's also part of the charm. Every good looking woman I see in there I wonder if she's there on business 

[akauya]

Cleaners have probably seen more than receptionists 

They have indeed. Once a cleaner walked into the room (without knocking) and there I was busy pumping away (a woman off Plentyoffish) when we booked a dayroom.

Reception must have forgotten to tell the cleaning staff the room was booked for a couple of hours.

[Joball87]

Reception not an issue. Only things that worry me a bit are a) late night security on door with list of rooms/occupiers (basically a bad hotel choice by SP unless there is a back entrance (!) b) cleaner walking in whilst in the job (has happened to me) - keep door double locked or worse case c) fire alarm / water leak and whole place has to be evacuated. All part of the excitement tbh

I once visited an SP in a hotel that had a big security guard standing at the front door. I was a little unsure when I approached the hotel, but I just said "Good evening" to him as I walked into the hotel and he didn't challenge me. That was around 9pm on a week night.

I was once staying at a hotel and there was fire alarm and we all evacuated.  There were some odd couples in the car park where we all had to gather, so I guess some SPs may have gotten caught out.

I'm sure on previous similar threads it's been stated that some hotels / the management don't allow girls to work from there as it technically means they are operating as a brothel
