Which is your favourite hotel freebie?

manila-bathroom.jpgWhether they admit it or not, everyone loves nabbing hotel freebies.

Whereas most of us draw the line at shampoo and shower gel, Holiday Extras' customers will sink as low as running off with light fittings and even televisions.

Managing director Mike Whiting said: "Hoteliers have reported guests stealing toilet brushes, light fittings, mirrors, curtains and even televisions. Many hotels now offer guests the option of paying for items they simply can't resist."

The Holiday Extras survey revealed that top of most customers' wish lists comes fluffy bathrobes, scoring 47% of the votes. Toiletries were a close second at 29.2% with towels coming in at 15.9%.

Hotel slippers aren't much of a temptation, with just 6.1% placing them on their wish list, while a sad 1.9% are tempted by the glamorous shower cap.

Ben:

It would take me a good 10 years to afford even 2 nights in a suite in the Atlantis. So..

2018, here i come!

I think the atlantis is an amazing hotel. (Not that i've been there). From reviews to pictures, it seems like it would be anyone's perfect holiday!

The report was really good. I guess if the atlantis fails, i'll be one of those bidding on eBay ;-)

Great report Chloe! :-)

I'm convinced that certain 6* hotels are possibly not as good as some 3* I've been to.
