Very often hotels will accommodate that, but not always. You won’t know unless you ask.

  42. Topic 2: Reviewing the Bill Knowledge Links So what can you take from a hotel room without being considered a bad guest? Basically, you’ll want to limit your pillaging to the bathroom. Shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, and other bathroom amenities are fair game, since they can’t be reused for the next guest. Bathroom slippers are usually complimentary as well, since they can’t be used again, but leave the robe behind.

  43. Topic 2: Reviewing the Bill Knowledge Links Stationary, like logo pens, notepaper, postcards and envelopes, are also left for your use and can be used or packed away for later. Everything else should be considered property of the hotel and should be left in the hotel room when you leave.

  44. Topic 2: Reviewing the Bill Knowledge Links Yes, even the robe. Robes are such a popular item for guests to take that many hotels have taken to listing the charge right on the hanger. Purchasing Hotel Room Items A better idea is to visit the gift shop for that pillow or robe you can’t live without. You’ll get a brand new version for the same price.

  45. Topic 2: Reviewing the Bill Knowledge Links Many hotels now have online stores, where you can purchase everything from those 700-thread-count sheets and plush towels, to the lamps, showerheads and even the hotel’s bed itself. All brand-new, and you don’t have to worry about fitting it in your suitcase.

  46.
