I'd put a period between noche and estan - instead of a comma !

lag you, I work from an iPad and hit the button and then the "exit" button didn't work and it zoomed in and then where I was hitting was where "Offensive..." came. - SrCientífico, Jun 10, 2011

Signifiqué decir "actualmente". - SrCientífico, Jun 10, 2011
I think of huéspedes more as hotel guests. I would use invitados here. - Tosh, Jun 10, 2011
"actualmente" - does not mean actually. - ian-hill, Jun 10, 2011
En realidad, significa 'currently'. ¿No? - Tosh, Jun 10, 2011
Si, or "nowadays" - NancyGrace, Jun 11, 2011

Tengo invitados esta noche, vinieron a comer / vienen a comer.
Para sounds formal to me, in this sentence a also means for, and it strikes me a lot more natural.
Edit: in thinking on it, I can't decide which sounds better. Para or a. But I would a native to confirm it either way.
¡A comer! - Let's eat.
