The short answer
A crib is berço. Ask whether the hotel can provide one for your room and whether it needs to be requested before arrival. Availability and room policies vary, so confirm the details directly with the property.
Ask if a crib is available
Repeat the child's age and the dates of your stay if the hotel needs those details to answer.
O hotel tem berço disponível para estas datas?
Does the hotel have a crib available for these dates?
Preciso solicitar o berço com antecedência?
Do I need to request the crib in advance?
Clarify the beds and room arrangement
Cama extra means extra bed, and quarto conjugado can describe connecting rooms. Ask which beds are in the room and whether an extra bed changes the price.
Use a specific question instead of assuming that a room described as family-friendly includes a particular arrangement.
O quarto tem uma cama de casal e uma cama extra?
Does the room have a double bed and an extra bed?
Há algum custo adicional pela cama extra?
Is there an additional cost for the extra bed?
Confirm what will be ready when you arrive
Ask whether the arrangement is confirmed for the reservation and request a written confirmation if you need one. Check the arrival time and whom to contact if the room is not set up as agreed.
These phrases help you clarify hotel arrangements; the property controls its current availability and policies.
Você pode confirmar o berço na reserva por escrito?
Can you confirm the crib in the reservation in writing?
Com quem devo falar na chegada?
Who should I speak to when I arrive?
Put it into practice
Ask whether a crib or extra bed is available, confirm any additional cost, and get the arrangement attached to your reservation.
