I am writing on my visit to Glasgow ...

You are going to London next week, so you need a place to stay. Write an e-mail (no longer than 120 words) to a hotel in which you:

1. say why you are writing
2. ask if there will be any vacancies next week
3. say what kind of room you would like to book
4. ask about the cost of the room per day

Start your e-mail with "Dear Sir or Madam," Before the end of the e-mail, write "I am looking forward to hearing from you." At the end, write "Yours faithfully," and your name under it. It's a formal e-mail, so don't use contractions, such as don't, can't and won't. Instead write "do not,"will not" etc.
