Thanks everyone This is actually a Chinese outfit, but they are already building in London with other hotels to follow in other parts. Apparently the plan is to charge £7.50 a day for cleaning (at today's prices), £2 for use of a hairdryer. Same for parking your suitcase etc, etc.

ReplyDeleteYou're a whizz with haiku now!
learning from the airlines. realizing they have a captive audience they can take advantage.
ReplyDeleteBring your own towels too or else? I just added you to my sidebar, Dave.
ReplyDeleteYou're right. Towels are being charged for as extras! Thanks for pointing that out - and for adding me to your sidebar Paul.
ReplyDeleteGosh, what could be next?
ReplyDeleteHotels charging for the 'no tell?'
I wish folks would wise up and realise that these budget deals are far from it. Splash out and book the Dorchester!

ReplyDeleteI forgot to add that it is £1 to use the toilet and extra for the loo paper, but I don't know how much extra!
