People use different ways to reserve a room.Someone write letters,someone goes to the hotel personally and someone reserve by phone calls (the people who reserve rooms by phone calls have to send a written confirmation after that).Of course,someone also reserve by telegram.
Recently,there is a new development of reserving hotel that is setting up a computer controlling reservation network and connect every sub branch of the chain hotel.And the seat reservation system of airline could also be connected with the office computer terminal in some important travel agency.This new development could make the procedure of reservation more convenient.
After getting the request of reservation,the reservation clerk should check the reservation status of the hotel and check whether the room is available in the specified date.If the reservation is accepted,the reservation clerk should fill a reservation form and record all the information in the daily records.
