B Correct answer
Explanation

'Let in' is a phrasal verb meaning to allow someone to enter a place or to give someone access to something. When you 'let in the VIPs', you are allowing them entry. 'Let down' means to disappoint someone, 'let off' means to release someone from punishment or obligation, and 'let for' is not a standard phrasal verb in English.
