Making Hotel Reservation by Telephone.

Clerk: - Centre Hotel. Good morning. Can I help you?

Mr. Lavrov: - Good morning. I’d like to reserve a single room with bath beginning next Tuesday.

C: - Name, please?

Mr. L: - Victor Lavrov.

C: - How long will you be staying, Mr. Lavrov?

Mr. L: - I’ll be staying for ten days. And one more thing. I’d like it to be a quiet room, not overlooking the street.

C: - Just a moment … Unfortunately, we haven’t got any such accommodation available at the moment, but the hotel is situated in a very quiet part. I’m sure, you’ll enjoy your stay here whichever room you book.

Mr. L: - Oh, thanks. I’ll leave it to you, then.

C: - Very good, sir. We’ll be looking forward to seeing you with us next Tuesday.
