I can’t leave tomorrow, so I went to my hotel site and pushed my reservation back a day. I may do it again tomorrow, depending on circumstances.
Is that wrong to do? I’m effectively “holding” a room that I haven’t even paid for yet, but keeping anyone else from moving in.

It’s not wrong at all. Hotel websites and hotel front desk associates will let you cancel a day from your reservation as long as it is in line with the cancellation policy for that particular hotel. Hotel associates know that flight, weather, business, and family delays can happen. It works the other way too. Let’s say you’re checked into a hotel and you have to leave early. As long as you check-out be check-out time for that hotel, they will cancel the reservation you had for that night.
Note that this does not work for pre-paid reservations such as priceline, travelocity, travelweb, etc.

It’s not really wrong and it’s also not truly holding a room. Hotels expect a certain number of last minute cancellations and routinely overbook to allow for it. Once in awhile they even run out of rooms due to overbooking and send reserved guests elsewhere.
