Hotel with LO

We're planning a trip in May and this will be our first time in a hotel with DS as a toddler. The sleeping arrangements are kind of stressing me out. At almost 40 lbs, I'm guessing he is going to be too big for a little hotel crib. The only time he is ever in our bed at home is on Sunday mornings when we're cuddling and goofing around. He has NEVER slept in our bed. When we lost power during the hurricane, we tried to bring him into our bed after he fell asleep to keep warm, but he woke up and thought it was a party. We ended up bundling him up and returning him to his crib.
So....what is my best option? Get a room with double beds, bring bed guards, and put him in a bed by himself? Have one of us sleep with him? Or get a king bed and try to have us all in one bed? I'm afraid king bed = party, so that's probably not the best of the options.

I'd be getting a room with a king bed and making my kid sleep on the floor. You could get one of those toddler cots or just ask the hotel for extra blankets to make a cushy floor bed.
As for what to do that won't wake him, when I was little

I was stressed out about our trip to Disney for the same reasons. If she gets in our bed at home it's party time not sleep time. There we got two queen beds and asked for bed rails. It worked out fine. She was so tired that when
O is still ina crib. When I traveled with him recently he slept in his own double bed. I stacked pillows and stuff up around the edges-he doesn't move much at night-so he was totally fine. When he sleeps at my in-laws they have an air
