Was refused by 3 hotels to be hosted for being a solo traveler (single occupant) in tier 2 city of India.
Hello folks!
I go on a lot of solo trips by cycling. I mostly stay in hostels or dorms depending on the place. This one time I went to Ramanagara, KA for a short trip and decided to stay in a small hotel or lodge. Except for 1 place, all other hotels refused to host me. Is it because I was a single person looking for a stay?
I have experienced this before as well. I love to travel in rural areas for their green cover. But I always booked places before hand. It was first time I decided to stay spontaneously and it was very difficult to find a place to stay the night. Eventually I got one hotel which was in another town, Channapattana.
Is there a reason why hotels are refusing to host single folks? Or is it just a one off experience with me?
