i think this question needs reformulation. we check in 'at' not 'to' the hotel.

Check in at the hotel.
==> phrasal verb + prepositional phrase, functioning as an adverb; Where? At the hotel.

Check into the hotel.
==> phrasal verb + noun, functioning as the object of the verb; What? The hotel.

All the best, :D

Dear all ;
so if ya say both "in" & "into" is possible; this poll is'nt the proper one (bcoz of two equal choice!!!)

kindest regards

I believe "into" is the better choice, though.

EX: Let's check in at the desk.
=> At the desk is where we are checking in.

EX: Lets' check in [/u]to the hotel[/u].
=> *To the hotel is where we are checking in. (ungrammatical)

EX: Let's check into the hotel.
=> The hotel is where we are checking into.

I would use "CHECK IN", It's better in this case!

Check into is more to mean:examine so as to determine accuracy, quality or condition, example: Check the brakes; check out the engine.
Check into would be synonym of: check, check up on, look into, check out, suss out, check over, and used as an hypernym will mean: analyze, study, examine, as an hyponym means: watch, observe, follow or keep an eye on.

I think the "Check in" is the best in this case because: we can define it saying: check in is the process of announcing our arrival at a hotel, airport, etc. When we are in a hotel we can read the sign called "CHECK IN"

I`ve just checked in to a hotel.- this sentence seems right to me.
Am I wrong?
