Booking confirmed welcome

Subject

You are booked -- see you at property name on check-in date

Email

Hi guest name,

Your stay is confirmed. You are in a room type from check-in date to check-out date, under reference booking reference.

We are genuinely glad you picked us. Between now and your arrival we will send you two short emails -- one with the things worth knowing before you travel, and one on the morning of check-in with directions and door details. Nothing else, we promise.

Need to change dates, add a night, or tell us it is a birthday? Everything is here: manage link, or just reply to this email and a human will sort it.

See you soon,

your name and the team at property name

6 ready-to-use variants

1

Booking confirmed welcome

When to use: Send it immediately on booking, while the guest is still excited about the trip.

Subject

You are booked -- see you at property name on check-in date

2

Pre-arrival know-before-you-go

When to use: Send it three to five days before arrival, while there is still time to plan.

Subject

A few useful things before check-in date

Email

Hi guest name,

Not long now. Here are the things guests most often wish they had known a day earlier.

Getting here: transport tip. Parking: parking info. Check-in runs check-in window -- arriving outside it is usually fine, just tell us and we will make a plan rather than leave you standing outside.

Packing: weather note. It sounds small, but it is the thing people thank us for most, usually while borrowing an umbrella from reception.

You do not need to reply to this or confirm anything. It is here so your arrival day is boring in the best way.

If anything at all comes up on the way, call us on contact number. A real person answers, including late, and we would rather field the question than have you worry about it for an hour.

Safe travels,

The team at property name

3

Day-of check-in details

When to use: Send it on the morning of arrival, timed before most guests set off.

Subject

Today: how to get in at property name

Email

Hi guest name,

Everything you need for today, up top:

Address: full address. Getting in: access instructions. Your room is ready from check-in window, and if you land early we will happily stash your bags.

Wifi, so you do not have to ask later: wifi details. It works throughout the building, including the garden.

That is the whole email -- no attachments, no app to download, nothing to print. Screenshot it if you are heading somewhere with patchy signal.

If a train is late, a flight moves, or you simply cannot find the door, call contact number -- we would much rather hear from you than have you standing on the pavement guessing. Late arrivals are completely normal and never a problem.

See you shortly,

The team at property name

4

Loyalty or returning guest welcome

When to use: Send it on booking when the guest history shows a previous stay.

Subject

Welcome back, guest name -- check-in date is in the diary

Email

Hi guest name,

Good to see your name come through again. It has been since last stay, which we think means you are overdue.

We still have you down for remembered preference, so unless you tell us otherwise we will just take care of that quietly before you arrive. No need to ask twice for it this time.

Your stay from check-in date also includes loyalty perk -- already applied, nothing to claim.

If anything about the last visit was less than it should have been, reply and tell me honestly. That is more useful to us than a polite review.

Looking forward to it,

your name, property name

5

Event or group booking welcome

When to use: Send it once a group booking is confirmed, to the organiser rather than every guest.

Subject

Your group at property name, event dates -- confirmed

Email

Hi organiser name,

We are holding room count for event dates under reference booking reference. Consider that locked.

Your contact here is coordinator name, and I mean an actual person rather than a shared inbox. Anything you need -- timings, dietary lists, a room swap at the last minute -- goes to them and only them.

The one date to keep: your final rooming list is due by rooming deadline. After that we can still flex, it just takes a phone call rather than a click.

You are probably managing a dozen suppliers right now. We would like to be the easy one.

Best,

coordinator name, property name

6

Post-stay thank-you plus review ask

When to use: Send it one to two days after check-out, once the trip has settled but is still fresh.

Subject

Thank you for staying with us, guest name

Email

Hi guest name,

Thank you for choosing us for stay dates. Small places live on people deciding to come back, and we do not take that lightly.

If the stay was good, a few lines here would genuinely help us: review link. It takes a minute and it is the single most useful thing a guest can do for a place like ours.

If it was not good, I would much rather hear it privately first -- write to feedback contact and it reaches me directly, not a queue, not a form. I will read it myself and reply.

Either way, return offer is yours whenever you fancy coming back. No expiry games, no code to hunt for.

Thanks again for letting us host you.

Warmly,

your name, property name

Frequently asked questions

Can I use these templates commercially?
Yes. Copy, edit, and use them in your business, client work, CRM, help desk, or sem.chat workspace.
Why are there six variants?
One generic template rarely fits every situation. Six variants give your team practical choices without a messy library.
Should I paste these into sem.chat?
Yes. Save the best variants as canned replies, knowledge base entries, routing rules, or CRM notes so your AI agent and team stay consistent.
How many emails should a guest get before arrival?
Three is the sweet spot for most stays: a confirmation at booking, a know-before-you-go a few days out, and a check-in details email on the morning of arrival. Each should have a distinct job. More than that and guests stop opening the one that actually matters.
What belongs in a pre-arrival email?
The questions your front desk genuinely receives -- parking, transport, check-in timing, and what to pack. Not the spa menu. A pre-arrival email that prevents three phone calls is worth more than one that promotes an upsell nobody reads on a train.
When is the best time to ask for a review?
One to two days after check-out, after a genuine thank-you rather than before it. Offer a private route for complaints in the same email. Guests who feel heard privately often leave better public reviews than guests who were only ever pointed at a star rating.
Should returning guests get a different welcome email?
Always. A generic confirmation sent to a fourth-time guest quietly says you did not notice. Reference one true detail from their history -- a room preference, a rough date -- and the loyalty message lands without needing a tier badge to prop it up.
