Hotels in Wales will be able to keep serving guests after the Christmas Day cut off for hospitality.
First Minister Mark Drakeford announced this week that hospitality had to close from 6pm on Christmas Day.
This restriction is coming in ahead of Wales moving into alert Level 4 on December 28.
From this date all holiday accommodation must close.
But hotel owners were seeking clarification whether they can keep serving guests food and drink after the Christmas Day cut-off.
This was a big issue for sites with guests booked for breaks over the festive period.
UK Hospitality now says it has been told they can keep hospitality open for guests until the end of December 27.
The ban on serving alcohol remains in place.
Executive Director Wales at UK Hospitality Cymru David Chapman said: "Following successful representations by UKHospitality Cymru, Welsh Government have now informed us that hotels can remain open for residential guests as booked and provide them with meals until midnight on December 27th, when they have to have completed their departure."
