1. Contact the hotel: Although the cancellation time has passed, you can still contact the hotel to explain your situation and ask for a refund. Your situation belongs to special circumstances, such as emergencies, weather reasons, etc. The hotel will consider giving you a refund.
2. Apply for a refund through the travel platform: You have booked a hotel through the travel platform, and you can try to apply for a refund through the platform. Some travel platforms will give refunds or partial refunds according to the situation, but it should be noted that the success rate of this method is not high, because you already know the cancellation policy when booking.

For example, complain to consumer associations and consumer rights protection departments, or complain to tourism industry associations and tourism supervision departments.
