Unlocking the VIP Room after decorating all 8 hotel rooms lets you invite guests using amiibo in Animal Crossing: New Horizons (ACNH). Learn how to invite guests with amiibo here, and find out if you can invite all characters in this guide.

To unlock the amiibo scanner in your island hotel, you need to decorate all 8 rooms first. Once that's done, Leilani will introduce the VIP Room the next day along with the amiibo scanner.

Since all invites from amiibo scans are considered VIPs, unlocking the VIP Room is required. As mentioned above, this feature unlocks the day after you decorate all 8 rooms. Since this takes about 4 days to complete, you'll unlock the VIP Room on your 5th day.

Once you have the amiibo scanner, you can invite any character of your choice. They'll arrive immediately and will stay if they accept your invitation.
All amiibo Rewards and Unlocks

All villagers can be invited as VIP guests. Simply scan their amiibo, and they'll happily accept the invitation to stay at your hotel.

Resident villagers can't be invited to stay at the hotel, even as VIPs. This also applies to current campsite visitors. If you want to give your villagers the VIP treatment, you can do so in Happy Home Paradise instead.

Special characters can also be invited, including those who live on different islands such as Niko and the Paradise Planning team, as well as Harv. Characters without specific roles, like Shrunk, will also accept the invitation as VIP guests.

Do note that some characters will continue working even after being invited as guests. For example, Harv won't be available at the hotel if you access his services on his island.

Active special characters on your island, such as Leilani herself or Orville, will also refuse the invitation. As mentioned earlier, if you still think they deserve some kind of vacation, you can at least do that in Happy Home Paradise!
