Sample Reservation Letters

Find inspiration in our curated catalog of reservation letters. Each sample letter comes with guidelines and advice to help you find the right words.

Reservation letters are letters written to book or reserve a place somewhere, usually a function, conference, activity, hotel, or restaurant. In most cases, a reservation letter is written as a direct request to ask for a spot or as a response to an invitation. Depending on the scenario, you may have to literally write a letter, or there might be a form to fill in. In the modern days and with the advancement of technology, most reservations are made via phone or the internet. However, in instances where you have no access to a phone or have a unique request, it is best to write a reservation letter.

Good reservation letters are specific, simple, and direct to the point. Begin by mentioning the purpose of your letter. Make sure to include all the necessary information. If you are writing to reserve a room in a hotel, for example, state the type of room you want, the check-in date, the number of days that you would be staying, etc. Provide your contact details in case the recipient would want to verify your reservation. Be brief and keep the tone professional and formal. End by asking the recipient for a response.
