Your worst ever hotel experiences...

[Butch]

For me it was very easy. Leonardo Royal hotel, London City in London.

Started really well , we turned up at the other Leonardo hotel which was nearby called the "Tower Bridge". so, we turned up at the Leonardo Royal hotel London Tower bridge, but were meant to be at the Leonardo Royal hotel London city, 400 yards in the other direction, Sir. No, we don't run a courtesy car either.

My Mrs was complaining as her shoes hurt her feet, it was hot and my daughter was borderline going into one because she didn't want to be there anyway.

turned up at the correct Hotel, the  room was on the 4th floor. Then the fun starts.

Got everything squared away, but the Air con wasn't working. Clever cloggs here, having a bit of history dealing with HVAC stuff gives the unit a thump, it then dumps about 3 gallons (imperial) of water all over the floor, me, and the wife's bag which was open with her clothes in.

One anxious call to reception (now 21:00) the night staff moves us to another room. We have to move our own stuff though. Wife is upset to say the least and mutters something about homicide. Stuff taken for free laundry at least.

New room, AC works but keeps clattering like a 30 year old Skoda and doesn't work. 0100, i'm down at  reception with my pants on and a T shirt moaning, it's hot as f**k and I can't sleep cos the A/C is wankered. "Sorry sir, we've no more rooms".

Stay awake , get about 3 hours sleep, wife and daughter fall asleep thankfully but I'm waiting in reception at 0800 for the Day manager to stick 7 bells of shit into them. Turns out she's arguably the hottest looking Singaporean bird I've ever laid eyes on, so I'm like a 13 year old teenager in her presence. I explain the situation, invite her to the room to check (she declined) but told me she would "put it right". I'm all giggles and red faced, she knows it and is really nice to me.

Wife then turns up with a face like thunder, watching me looking like a twat trying my best to flirt with the manager accepting everything she says with a nod and a smile  and me saying "don't worry it's fine", while she is ready to stick the f**k into the her as she's livid, but doesn't give me time to tell her I've sorted it. As a result, the Philippines officially declared war on Singapore in that hotel lobby.

The hotel declined to honour our accomodation for the following night, and they refunded the cost of our stay. It was only until the threat of the Police being called (after my Mrs referred to the Security / porter as a "c**t" - which he wasn't and graciously accepted my apology on her behalf, fortunately for me).  Our laundry was duly returned freshly pressed and nicely cleaned and we were then asked to leave the premises with the advice that our business was no longer welcome at any of the Leonardo chain of Hotels. Ever again.

I booked us into the Hilton to make amends. luckily it only cost me 600 quid for one night, which was lucky because for a moment I thought I was going to have my pants pulled down and charged something ridiculous like £200.

That pretty much sums it up.

I was moving out of a motel room in Houston, Texas.  I checked the bathroom, the closet and all the drawers in the dresser to make sure I wasn’t leaving anything. Lastly, I got down on my knees by the bed, threw back the blanket and stuck my head down to check under the bed. I almost had a heart attack. I was nose to nose with one of the ugliest men I have ever seen. Then, I realized the bed was sitting on a mirrored frame.

My first holiday was a Club 18-30 in Ipsos Corfu .... arrived at about 02:00 and as we were getting off the coach some revellers asked , "what hotel you staying in ? " ... "The Costas" I replied .. "Get back on the fcuking coach , it's a shithole !!" They laughed ...

Checked in and we were given a safety box to put our valuables in ... well it was a cardboard shoebox with the room number written on it , which they locked in the office at night ...

there were three of us and one of my mates was told he had to share with a random stranger as there weren't any other spare rooms ..

myself and my other friend went up to our room and I sat on my bed and fell through it ... someone had removed the wooden planks that supported the mattress 555

other than that it was a fun two weeks  🍺🍺🍺🍺🍹🍹🍹🍷🍷🍷🍷🙃

Carbondale, Illinois (SIU campus), 1979.

 

I was down enrolling for the first time. Took the drive down spent the night, enrolled in classes drove back after that (about a 6 hour drive each way).

For the nights stay I picked a hotel off the main stretch as you entered into town.

Not one thing was particularly dramatic. But the sh#t lighting, leaky faucet, awful smells, and just overall greasy feeling of the place really put me off. I don't think I slept a wink.

 

That was when I promised not to ever spend the night in a sh#tty hotel again. Although I have been in some very trashy short time rooms, but I don't consider those in the same way.

Having to share a bed at Nana Hotel in 2001 with my mate shifty Paul. Like a fucking scene from Morecambe and Wise.
 

I ended up fucking my girl in the bed and him fucking his in the bathroom.

Are you suggesting that @galenkia and his mate wrestled each other naked in a homoerotic scene ???

In the 80's in Pattaya & the PI I always stayed in the cheapest I could find,except in Manila where it was part of my airline ticket so I stayed in the Hilton & the Sheraton.I think the cheapest was Pattaya at 150b a night.

Probably the worst was a hotel in Phuket where there would be turds surfacing in the shower every now & then.

Another bad one was also Phuket where someone helped themselves to some of my money in the 'safety' deposit box.
