Single / Double Occupancy

Single occupancy means one guest in a hotel room, and double occupancy means two, whether in one bed or two. Occupancy often decides how the room is priced and which beds it needs. Some contracts quote the same rate regardless of occupancy, while others charge a per-person supplement above double, so occupancy affects both the budget and the rooming list. On the rooming list, occupancy drives bed configuration — a double-occupancy room may need two beds — and any shared-cost split between roommates. For coordinators, capturing occupancy accurately per room prevents check-in surprises, such as a couple assigned two twin beds or two colleagues assigned one king, and keeps room night math and billing aligned with what guests actually booked.
