Asking For A Room In A French Hotel

If you’re visiting France (or a French speaking country) on holiday then you’ll need some accommodation.

You’ll also need to know how to ask for the kind of room you want in French. So this is what we are going to teach you in this article.

Let’s get started:

Firstly, to ask for what you would like, you’ll need to use “Je voudrais” or “je souhaite”. These phrases mean “I’d like”.

Here are some examples of how you might use them.

“Je voudrais une chamber avec un balcon”. This means I’d like a room with a balcony.

 “Je voudrais reserve rune chamber double pour deux nuits”. This means I’d like to book a double room for two nights.

You would use “je souhaite” like this: “Je souhaite rester deux nuits”. This means I’d like to stay two nights.

Another way of asking for what you would like is to use Je veux instead of Je voudrais. “Je veux” means “I want”, and is a more direct way of asking for something.

If you would like to simply make an enquiry like “Do you have…?” you can use “Est-ce que vous avez”. For example “Est-ce que vous avez des chambers de libre?” This means Have you got any rooms free?

Hopefully these simple phrases and vocabulary will help you out when it comes to booking your accommodation if you ever visit France.
