Booking Process & Information

How can I book and pay for someone else’s stay?

You can book and cover the cost of a stay for someone else, such as an employee, business partner, friend, or family member. The payment process depends on the reservation type and its payment conditions.


If you haven’t booked yet

If you’d like to make a new reservation and pay for someone else’s stay, start by making a guaranteed FLEX reservation on the MEININGER Hotels website.

On the contact details page, select “I’m booking for someone else.” Then, on the payment page, select “Guaranteed booking” and complete your reservation.

On the booking summary page, you’ll see “Allow charges to the provided card for selected services?”. Select “Yes, I’ll specify the services.”.

Accommodation costs are always included. You can also choose to cover additional services for the guest, including breakfast, city tax, parking, packed lunch, early check-in, and late check-out.


If you’ve already made a reservation

For eligible reservations, you can authorize payment for the guest through "Manage My Booking" here.

This option is generally available for guaranteed FLEX reservations booked directly on the MEININGER Hotels website. It may also be available for eligible reservations made through third-party booking channels.

Log in to "Manage My Booking" and select "Credit Card authorisation form" if the option appears for your reservation. Follow the instructions to authorize payment for the guest.


What if the credit card authorisation form isn’t available?

The online credit card authorisation form is available for selected reservation types. Availability may vary for non-guaranteed reservations, certain prepaid reservations, or other reservation types that aren’t eligible for the online form.

If the option isn’t available in "Manage My Booking", contact Customer Care through our contact form.

Let us know which services you’d like to cover for the guest and who should receive the invoice. Please also provide the billing name – either your name or company name – the billing address, and the VAT number, if applicable.


For your security, we can’t accept or store full credit card details sent by email or as an attachment.
