Runaway Bug Solutions

Hotel Volii Door Inaccessible

Players have reported a bug through the Bethesda Official Discord channel where the door to Natan's room is labeled inaccessible, causing players to be unable to complete the quest objective.

Talk to Minerva After Receiving Activity Notification

A fix found by other Starfield players in the Bethesda Official Discord suggests going directly to the third floor and walking near Natan's Room until you get an activity update notification. After receiving the update, you can talk to Minerva about the delivery, and the quest should progress normally.

The walkthrough team has not encountered this bug and cannot confirm it as of writing. If this fix has worked for you or you have an alternative solution, you're welcome to share it in the comment section, and we will make sure to confirm the fix!

Runaway Walkthrough and Objectives

Main Objectives

  1. Obtain Red Harvest Reserve Whiskey
  2. Go to Hotel Volii
  3. Find Out Which Room Natan is in
  4. Speak with Natan
  5. Return to Rivkah

1. Obtain Red Harvest Reserve Whiskey

Starfield - Obtain Whiskey from Jack .png
After talking to Rivkah and learning about the situation with her father, talk to Jack in the bar, where you will have three options for obtaining the Whiskey.

You can buy the Whiskey at a full price of 15,000 Credits, Persuade Jack to sell it to you for 600 Credits, or Steal the Whiskey.

(Optional) Steal Red Harvest Reserve Whiskey

If the persuasion fails or you don't want to spend any Credits, stealing the whiskey is the best alternative to get it. Hide first and ensure you're undetected to avoid getting caught. Sneak behind Jack once everything is clear and pickpocket him to get the whiskey.

Invest in Theft Skill and Stealth Skill to do this easily and increase your chance of succeeding!

2-3. Find Out Which Room Natan is In

Following Rivkah's instruction to meet with her father on Neon, head to Hotel Volii, and talk to Minerva Clement and tell her you have a delivery for Natan. Head to the third floor and enter Natan's room after.

5. Return to Rivkah

1. Tried not to speak, go 3rd LVL, back & speak to Minerva, 3rd LVL. Result: Did not work. 2. Speak to Minerva. 3rd LVL. Back to Minerva. 3rd LVL. Result: Did not work. 3. Rent room for 1 day. Sleep in hotel room bed. 3rd LVL. Speak to Minerva. 3rd LVL. Result: Did not work. 4. Have another quest active. Result: Did not work. 5. Here's my solution: BETHESDA! MAKE YOUR QUESTS DOABLE! So from now on I'll skip this stupid crap. Maybe I'll try it in New Game+ (hardly unlikely). /DBB
