How old do you have to be to reserve/check into a hotel room?

Question

I'm wondering if I can do it myself. I'm 17.

Answer 1

At 17 you may or may not get a room... depends on how old you look.  You DO know that most national hotel/motel chains REQUIRE A NATIONAL CREDIT CARD to rent you a room... right?

Answer 2

Check with whatever hotel you want to stay at but you most likely have to be 18 with a major credit card.

Answer 3

usually 18 but double check with the hotel
