Requesting Initial Travel and Accommodation Arrangements
You may wish that the administration of the company make arrangements for your travel and accommodation for the first few weeks. However, you could have asked for this requirement right at the time of the interview. It is not advisable to ask for this arrangement in hindsight.
While travel arrangements you may make on your own, you may ask for permission to avail of the guest house facility until you find accommodation for yourself. You may prepare the draft of the letter on your own and upload it here. Some seniors, like me, will correct it further. Roughly, you may include the following points in your letter:
a) Background Information - Provide information about the post you had applied for, general information about the recruitment process, when the offer letter was issued to you, and when you are expected to join.
b) Request - Make a request for permission to avail of the guest house facility. Mention the duration, which could roughly be for one month.
c) Reasons for the Request - Mention why you are making this request. You may write that you are new to the city where you will join and, for the transitional period, you need support from the company.
d) Contact Information - Ask for the details of the Admin in charge who takes care of the guest house.
