Das Hotelzimmer war von der Größe sehr gut und das Bett war bequem. Am zweiten Tag war unser Bett geschmückt.
Die Toilette war nicht fest angebracht, deshalb war sie unten undicht.

Questions about Hotel Golden Ray

What time is check-in and check-out at Hotel Golden Ray?

Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 12:00 PM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Hotel Golden Ray allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Hotel Golden Ray?

Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.

Does Hotel Golden Ray have a pool?

Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.

Is breakfast included at Hotel Golden Ray?

Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.

Does Hotel Golden Ray have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Can I book a block of rooms at Hotel Golden Ray?

The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.

Does Hotel Golden Ray have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

Can I check in late at Hotel Golden Ray?

The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 2:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.

How do I book Hotel Golden Ray?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
