Unmarried couples no longer welcome, OYO changes check-in rules

NEW DELHI: Travel booking major OYO has launched a new check-in policy for partner hotels, starting from Meerut, introducing guidelines effective this year whereby unmarried couples will no longer be welcome to check in.

Under the revised policy, all couples will be asked to present valid proof of relationship at the time of check-in, including for bookings made online.

OYO has empowered its partner hotels’ discretion to decline couple bookings based on their judgment, aligning with local social sensibility, the company said.
