How do things work at hotel parties?

[openingup]

Thank you so much everyone!

I want to ask a bit about how things work in a hotel setting. Does the group book out an entire floor? Do you attend with playmates you know and grab a room? Where do people meet and greet and talk?

I'm also a bit scared of running into the wrong person/people. How can I be sure nothing bad will happen to hubby or I once a hotel door is shut?

Hi there openingup, and a hearty welcome to the Board!

I can't speak for all hotel groups, but for the two local ones, they will book one wing or an entire floor. They have security to make sure no one who is not part of the party can come into the closed areas.

Most couples book their own rooms if they are going to stay at the hotel. Then they can stay there by themselves and have privacy, and/or invite others to their room for play or just hanging out. Sometimes two couples will attend together and share the room.

People meet and talk in the party areas, and also on the floor with the rooms. Normally there is a party in one of the hotel ballrooms, which is again closed to the general public. At 12 AM or some designated time, the party moves upstairs. Even if you don't get a room, you can go upstairs.

As far as the "wrong" person or people... you just have to talk to people. Though there are a few stories here and there, most people at these parties are just like you and me, and aren't there to make anyone uncomfortable or do anything unwelcome. If someone gives you a bad feeling, or if you don't feel they are there for the same reason you are, just don't talk to them or do anything else.

If anyone does anything unwelcome or puts pressure on you, which doesn't happen very often, do make sure to let the party hosts know. They appreciate feedback.

Hotel parties vary quite a bit, I'd go so far as to say that every one is different.

They range from...

pure socials - a group books a banquet room at a hotel and has an off-premise social (meaning that there is no sex on premise). Couples may book a room at the hotel (and many often do) and may even go to their rooms with other couples after the social and play.

Some socials have started changing their setup to incorporate play rooms into the social, making it a bit more on-premise. These socials usually will block a floor of rooms, where those attending can have a room of their own, and then there are also rooms dedicated to playing (sometimes decorated for specific themes). These parties still usually have the banquet room setting for a more "social" atmosphere, so even if you aren't ready to play you can still go and meet people, and you don't have to go to the play areas at all if you don't want to.

Sometimes couples will book a suite at a hotel and throw their own party, inviting friends. This is the same as a house party, they just use a hotel instead. And sometimes two couples (or more) just decide to get a room and share it and play.

If there is a particular party you are looking at going to, I would suggest that you call and talk to the hosts before going and make sure you know what to expect, as far as the setup. They will be happy to answer your questions, and chances are they've gotten plenty of other calls with the same questions.

Welcome to the Swingers Board, openingup

I think hotel settings go hand in hand with a social settings or social groups, as far as "Hotel parties" or "Hotel take-overs" go.
But we also prefer to play in a hotel room on our own as well.
We have found various groups operate differently. Its important to have good communication with the group owners/ hosts. Usually the hosts either know someone in management or actually own the hotel.

We have found over the years, Circle City Socials in Indianapolis quite a great group to hang out with. The owners/hosts have spent allot of time and devotion to the people who attend. However, there are many groups on swinglifestyle and the new swingerzonecentral. that have asked us to attend their parties. Sometimes we fit in and sometimes we don't. Thats the beauty of variety.

That works out best but the truth is, sometimes hotel management spreads the rooms out a bit. We prefer a blocked floor or wing when invited to a room with people we know well. However we are a bit skittish in an uncontrolled environment with strangers. We usually rent a suite close to the party in a separate Hotel. (Its just our personal comfort issue.)

Do you attend with playmates you know and grab a room?

That sound like the perfect thing to do. For the most part thats exactly what happens. But like I say, we have our preferences. We have gone as a couple not knowing anyone, and with known playmates as well.

Where do people meet and greet and talk?

We have found that most hotel parties either block/close the banquet room to the general public. Where either you BYOB or they have waitresses serve the banquet room. Many times they close the Bar area to the general public(usually a pretty good party ).

These are questions you really need to ask a specific group or hosts. We have seen it all, as far as sex in a banquet room (who knew ) to nothing more than socializing and exchanging ideas and even exchanging names and numbers. Now, if we see three or four people leave the social area and they are heading toward the elevator instead of the exit door. Well, you get the picture.

I'm also a bit scared of running into the wrong person/people.

We have seen doctors, lawyers, police officers, teachers, white collar/blue collar workers, every color and creed known to mankind. Even saw a professional clown once We won't go there now though......

Who are the wrong people ?

How can I be sure nothing bad will happen to hubby or I once a hotel door is shut?

Well depending on your fear you could have anything from a personal body guard ( My job with Mrs.fun ) To a friend on the sideline, awaiting a phone call. We have those also

Like I say, we have seen many varieties of hotel parties and situations.

Have you been invited to a hotel party ? Or, are you thinking this may work over a club environment for your comfort ?

I've never attended a full hotel takeover, so my comments address smaller, house-type parties held in a hotel.

The best small hotel parties I've hosted and attended were held in either a one-bedroom suite or two adjoining rooms. That way, there is room for play and room for people who want to get warmed up or take a break in the action.

It's best if the bedroom(s) have two queen beds, which facilitate more people being able to play. The office chairs that lots of hotels have at the desk in the room are also a good place for getting/giving a blow job.

I always provide bottled water and place a box of wipes in the bathroom(s), and ask housekeeping for extra towels in case people want to freshen up during the party or before leaving for home. If they desire, people usually BYOB.

A one-bedroom suite easily accommodates 10-15 people. Two adjoining rooms up to 20. Set a time window for people to arrive, since you don't want to keep breaking the action to open the door in various states of undress! Since all of the parties I have hosted were after Meet & Greets, the time thing was generally not a problem unless somebody got lost between the M&G venue and the hotel.

We can't speak for all the hotel parties around, but can tell you about the one we do work with and attend regularly.

We have themed nights where we have a member's only party in the ballroom, with dancing etc. Some nudity is allowed in there, and we usually have fun making it a meet and greet type event.

We book rooms in advance at a discounted rate, but due to the hotel set-up, reserving a wing is rather a difficult thing. One side of the hotel is the smoking area, and many couples do not like to be in that environment.

So we sell ribbons to put on the door knobs to identify member rooms that are semi-open to having people over.

It works, a lot of people have fun.
