It's late in the evening at a hotel in Lisbon, and you can't get into your room. At reception, you'll need to explain what happened and ask for help. If you're tired or worried, even a simple conversation in English can feel harder than usual.

In this free, timed speaking mission, you have 95 seconds to talk to the receptionist. Give the name on your booking and your room number, explain why you can't get in, say where your photo ID is, and ask for a replacement key. Aim to make each detail clear rather than speak perfectly.

Co musisz powiedzieć

  1. Give the booking name
    • “The booking is under Maya Chen.”
    • “My name is Alex Kim.”
    • “It's under the name Sofia Costa.”
  2. Give your room number
    • “My room number is 408.”
    • “I'm in room 512.”
    • “I am staying in room 307.”
  3. Explain why you can't get in
    • “My key card stopped working.”
    • “I left my key inside the room.”
    • “The door won't open with my card.”
  4. Say where your ID is
    • “My passport is inside the room.”
    • “I have my photo ID with me.”
    • “My driving licence is in my bag.”
  5. Ask for a replacement key
    • “Could you make me a new key card, please?”
    • “Can I have a replacement key?”
    • “Could you reset my card?”

Najczęściej zadawane pytania

What do I say in English if my hotel key card doesn't work?

Tell the receptionist what's happening: "My key card isn't working" or "The door won't open with my card." Then give your booking name and room number if asked. To make sure your request is clear, add "Could you make me a new key card, please?"

How do I tell hotel reception my booking name in English?

You can say "The booking is under Maya Chen" and use the name on your reservation. "My name is Maya Chen" also works. Speak the name clearly, and be ready to spell it if the receptionist has trouble finding the booking.

How do I explain that my passport is inside my hotel room?

Say "My passport is inside the room." If you have another form of photo ID with you, you can mention that too: "I have my driving licence in my bag." Answer the receptionist's question honestly; you don't need to invent an ID you don't have.

How do I ask for a replacement hotel key in English?

Try "Could I have a replacement key, please?" or "Could you make me a new key card?" If your card has stopped working, you can also ask "Could you reset my card?" Explaining the problem helps, but make a direct request so the receptionist knows what you need.
