کیا کوئی کمرہ خالی ہے؟
Kya koi kamra khaali hai?
Is there a room available?
Usage
The basic phrase for checking room availability at a hotel reception.
Grammar Note
"Khaali" (empty/vacant) is an Arabic-derived adjective widely used in Urdu. In hotel contexts, also learn "double kamra" (double room) and "single kamra" (single room).
ایک رات کا کرایہ کتنا ہے؟
Ek raat ka kiraya kitna hai?
How much is the rate per night?
Usage
A practical phrase to ask about the nightly rate.
Grammar Note
"Kiraya" broadly means fare/rent/rate in Hindustani — used for hotels, transport, and rentals alike. The genitive "ka" links "ek raat" (one night) to "kiraya" (rate).
چیک اِن کا وقت کیا ہے؟
Check-in ka waqt kya hai?
What is the check-in time?
Usage
Used to ask about the earliest check-in time at a hotel.
Grammar Note
"Waqt" (time) is an Arabic loanword deeply embedded in Urdu. English loanwords like "check-in" are also common in hotel and business contexts.
کیا ناشتہ شامل ہے؟
Kya naashta shaamil hai?
Is breakfast included?
Usage
Used to confirm whether breakfast is included in the room rate.
Grammar Note
"Shaamil" (included) derives from Arabic. Pakistani breakfast (naashta) typically includes paratha (flatbread), halwa puri (sweet + fried bread), and chai (spiced tea).
میرا کمرہ صاف نہیں ہے
Mera kamra saaf nahi hai
My room is not clean
Usage
Used to report a cleanliness issue to hotel staff.
Grammar Note
Urdu negation uses "nahi" before the verb: "saaf nahi hai" = "is not clean." Possessive "mera/meri/mere" agrees with the noun's gender: "mera kamra" (my room, masculine).
براہ کرم تولیے لے آئیں
Baraah karam tauliye le aayein
Please bring towels
Usage
A polite request to room service or housekeeping for towels.
Grammar Note
"Le aana" (bring) is a directional compound verb: "le" (take) + "aana" (come). Urdu uses such compound verbs to specify motion direction: "le jana" (take away) vs. "le aana" (bring here).
وائی فائی کا پاسورڈ کیا ہے؟
Wi-Fi ka password kya hai?
What is the Wi-Fi password?
Usage
Used to ask for Wi-Fi connection details at a hotel or guesthouse.
Grammar Note
Modern Urdu readily borrows English vocabulary, especially for technology. English words are phonologically adapted to Urdu phonetics: "password" becomes "paasword" in Urdu script.
مجھے ایک اور رات رہنا ہے
Mujhe ek aur raat rehna hai
I need to stay one more night
Usage
Used to extend a hotel stay by one more night.
Grammar Note
"Mujhe + verb infinitive + hai" expresses necessity or desire in Urdu: "I need/want to [verb]." "Mujhe jaana hai" (I need to go), "mujhe khaana hai" (I need to eat).
کیا لفٹ ہے؟
Kya lift hai?
Is there a lift (elevator)?
Usage
Used to check if the hotel has an elevator (called "lift" in South Asian English).
Grammar Note
Pakistani English, influenced by British English, uses "lift" (not "elevator"). The pattern "Kya + noun + hai?" forms a basic existence question: "Is there a [noun]?"
بل تیار کریں، میں کل چیک آؤٹ کروں گا
Bill tayaar karein, main kal check-out karoon ga
Please prepare the bill, I will check out tomorrow
Usage
Informing the front desk in advance about the next day's checkout.
Grammar Note
Interestingly, "kal" means both "tomorrow" and "yesterday" in Urdu. Context (future or past verb tense) disambiguates. Here "karoon ga" (future tense) signals "tomorrow."
