When do you use "Be my guest"?
I am not sure.
Please give me some examples.
is it a frase in hotel?
is it also formal?
is it used often?
thanks

its pretty much a formal way of saying "please go right ahead and do whatever it is you are wanting to do" or "please do so" however it can also be use sarcastically which i have heard more often and a "go right ahead buddy- your a** not mine!" kinda deal. i think it is used pretty often. lets see, an example...
well, when you are trying to open a jar and you can't and your friend asks to let him try you can say "be my guest!".

Like right now, I'm your guest in answering this ridiculous question of yours, be careful with the one who you ask to be your guest, you should be more concerned about who to not make your guest, and who to be careful with, because it is not about making or having guests, you get plenty of guests in your livingroom from the dangerous violent guests coming out of the plasma and digital screen from all those violent movies from the entertainment center there, plus you get plenty of guest when you go to the theatre to watch all that crap. So, thank you for letting me be your guest by letting me answer your ridiculous question.

if someone says "can i watch the superbowl at your place" you would say that. It basically means sure, but if you are talking about inviteing them to your house, they might say something like
"could i go stay here a bit longer?", the reply would work in both manner in that case. :) (hope it helped) i personally like saying abode more, that means your home.
