Why are hotel pillows always so soft? Do people really like a soft pillow? Are they cheaper? I never have a hard or supportive pillow in. Hotel. submitted by /u/Appropriate-Mark-930
Be careful by Hotel De Ville in Paris First time in Paris, so please feel free to call me an idiot. My fiancé and I were in front of Hotel De Ville (town hall), and I was filming on my phone and go-pro on a gimbal. I did notice a lot of commotion by a van of what appeared to be African Migrants. Nothing violent so I didn’t think much of it. I kept walking, and I as I was filming he…

Would you stay at Budget Hotel Chains when traveling? When I was younger I would always stay at the budget hotel chains when traveling to save money. I thought every middle class person I knew stayed at these places. Hotels like Marriott, Hilton, Westin and Doubletree were for the rich and business travelers. I stayed at places like Red Roof Inn, Days Inn, Econo Lodge, Sleep Inn and Rodeway Inn. No…
Hotel Pros: Accidentally Flooded Hotel Room, What’s Next? Accidentally flooded a hotel room while on business travel. Ran the sink with a bar of soap in it and fell asleep. It was a slow trickle but enough hours went by to dump a good amount of water on the floor. I woke up to a welfare check. I don’t think any adjacent rooms were damaged but the water did run down to the level below. The room was loca…
Maui Fire Refugees Are Temporarily Housed in Hotel Rooms People who lost their homes in last week’s fire increasingly are being housed in hotels a few miles away.
Hotel breakfasts need a massive update It feels like hotels are stuck decades in the past when it comes to breakfasts. I’m talking mainly about ‘resort’ hotels here, but this does apply to city spots too. I understand that their majority clientele are probably 50/60+, but as someone in their early 30s, I think they could do way more to accommodate younger people. Personally, and I kn…
Going to 5 star hotel that I don’t “belong” in A friend of mine won a nights day in a pretty fancy hotel. Its a country castle, very luxurious and idk “proper.” She asked if I wanted to join her because it was a trip for two and I instantly agreed without caring where it was. I honestly assumed it would be like every other trip we had, just small quaint, easy stuff lol. I checked online and…

Hotel cancelled and refunded my money even though I stayed there?? Checked into a hotel on Sunday the 6th. We checked in one hour early and they gave us one of the only rooms that was available at that time. We stayed and checked out on the 8th. Didn’t do any of this electronically (the checking in and out) we did it all with an actual person at the front desk. A day after checking out we received a full refun…

Is this hotel trying to scam me? I booked a hotel in Venice recently via Booking.com. I paid in full at time of booking. Today I woke up to these two messages from the hotel via the Booking.com app saying I need to pass a card check which involves clicking on a link, entering details including credit card, paying the cost of the stay in full before they apparently then refund t…
Why You Should Use a VPN When Booking a Hotel VPNs, or virtual private networks, can help you watch international Netflix, hide your activity from your employer, and protect your privacy online. Tech writer Brendan Heese previously explained how important it is to use a VPN when you visit hotels, but new evidence suggests that you should also use them when you… Read more…
Should I keep my passport and hip pack in my hotel or take it with me wherever I go? I’m going to London for the first time later this year. And I bought a small hip pack/Fanny pack to keep my passport in and also will probably keep my phone in it when not looking at it for directions. I’m just wondering though, assuming I do end up going somewhere fancy-ish like a restaurant or a tour, if I should take both of the aforementione…
Hotel reservation cancelled by travel website without refund I booked a hotel via an travel website and once I reached the hotel, the hotel told me that the reservation was cancelled. Apparently the reservation was cancelled by the website without informing me. Customer service for the travel website is unresponsive and my credit card declined a charge back as there is no evidence that the cancellation wa…
Shoes on or off in hotel room? I always take my shoes off when I’m at home. But at a hotel, I’m still figuring out if I should have shoes on or off. submitted by /u/78523985210
Money stolen from hotel room Uganda Today we found out that some money was stolen from our hotel room in Uganda. Although it’s not a lot (70.000 UGX / 19 USD), it still feels weird. My wife says we just need to accept it, as it’s not a lot of money and as local people here don’t have much, she hopes it goes to someone who desperately needs it and uses it to get some food. Althou…
Hotel in NYC for 6 nights I’m looking at hotels to book in NYC for 6 nights at the end of September…everything I’ve come across is looking like a minimum of $2600 CAD for a pretty bare bones room. I’ve looked at millenium, paramount, park Central, hotel 57, ridge, off Soho suites….the list goes on. Just looking for a decent place to sleep at night with a private bath…
