UPI – Hotels.com has unveiled some of the most unusual items left behind at its partner hotels worldwide, including a pet lizard, along with strange room service requests.
The website’s annual Hotel Room Innsights Report, compiled from data across more than 400 hotels globally, also highlighted the most commonly forgotten items by guests, such as phone chargers, dirty laundry, power adapters, make-up, and toiletries.
The report said 10 per cent of hotels reported finding dentures left by guests.
Some of the most unusual items left behind in rooms include a Rolex watch, another watch worth USD6 million, a Hermes Birkin bag, keys and documents for a luxury car, a car tyre, an engagement ring, a tooth, two full-leg casts, stacks of cash, a pet lizard and a chick.
Hotels.com said the lizard and chick were safely reunited with their owners.
The report also detailed some of the most unusual room service requests at the hotels, including an Evian-filled tub for a child’s bath, a customised allergen menu for a pet, burnt toast, a caviar hot dog, fresh goat milk, four pounds of bananas and a high five from a team member “to ensure their room service request was read”.
