Can you use a debit card as a credit card to get a room in a hotel?

I need to get a room at a hotel and only have a debit card. The hotel says they need a credit card to complete the transaction. Will the hotel use the debit card as a credit card and if so do I need to have a certain amount of money in my account?|||Yes, you can use your debit card, but the hotel is going to put a good chunk of money on hold from your account. I would figure up to $500





Depends on how expensive this hotel is.|||You must have enough to cover the deposit and the debit card must have a credit card logo.|||no, they need to be able to take your money if you destroy the room or something. and they cant do that with a debit card because you would have to go through the bank in order to allow the hotel to take your money with a automatic withdrawal. some hotels accept a down payment on the room. but most don't :( (and with a credit card. you cant be maxed out. or the card wont verify with them. they need at least $1 in there or more)
