Currently travelling around Europe and staying in many different hotels. As most would know, if ur in hotels long enough u will c some funny shit. My best so far was in paris, was doin some window watching and see a middle age asian man dancing around his room like a teenage girl. Was pissing myself laughing.
What's everyone's else's best hotel observations?

Was staying down the coast with my girlfriend and we were sharing a nice spa bath, next thing, knock at the door "housekeeping" as she walked in. We quickly yelled out "no thanks".

I remember something that sort of surprised me in France. I was staying in a room in Lourdes, and the hotel was very classy. Very very classy. They gave us a free upgrade because a previous booking was canceled. I loved everything... however the shower had liquid soap dispensers which is generally what the lower-class hotels have. The classy joints usually have the small soap cakes rather than that liquid crap which doesn't do a very good job!

The fiancee wanted to go to the Entrance for NYE for some bizarre reason, and the only hotel available was the shit one across the road from the Diggers, so we booked it through wotif no sweat, 90 minutes later we get a call from the hotel informing us our chosen room is no longer available as it burnt down :lol: you'd figure half your establishment burning down might inspire you to cnange your room info.

I think the reason she wanted to go was due to the 9:00pm fireworks they usually have there out on the water.

Once stayed at a place in Noosa where the manager looked almost identical to John Cleese. Which was funny as a Fawlty Towers fan

stayed at a resort/lodge that was one of a few bunched together on the range just outside of banff. Surrounded by wilderness so plenty of critters and the occasional bear but the worse was the marmots (ground squirrels) that infested the place. They dig burrows in ground big enough to get your foot stuck in them so on a big night in town (we were there for 3 days over the weekend and was some festival on at the same time) it was pretty funny getting back stupidly late in the morning after the sun was already up and seeing a fair few drunks that lost at minesweeper on their walk from the cab rank and have just slept where the have fallen over after stepping into a marmot hole

Had to go to Dubbo for work. I needed a room, the best they could do was ask a current customer if it was okay if I slept in their room haha. I turned it down and went to a motel.

WORST IDEA EVER.

The room had a snake under the bed. I ran out the room and to the front desk. We came back and could not find the damn thing. It felt like every 15 minutes I woke to inspect the room.

Hotel in Santorini - I witnessed a cat fight that I'll never forget. A big grey cat was chasing a small black one around until it cornered it on the verandah of the house next door to the hotel, and an old Greek lady who was sweeping the verandah at the time ran towards the 2 cats fighting and tried to sweep them off the verandah :lol: I've never seen anything like it... and old European woman charging at 2 feral cats going all out on them lol.

It could have been worse - they could have made you share a room with Julian O'Neill
