Local maps, travel guide brochures
Most hotels have city maps, travel guide brochures, tourist attractions… You can find these types of travel guides in the waiting area, reception desk, and they are completely free.
In addition, the receptionists are usually locals or have lived there for a while. They can show you local restaurants, car rentals, directions…
Hair dryer
Some travelers carefully bring a hair dryer with them when traveling. However, most hotels have hair dryers available. Some homestays or cheap guesthouses may not have hair dryers in the room. If you don’t see this item in the room, you can ask the staff to borrow one.
Iron
While traveling, you still need wrinkle-free clothes. Instead of spending money and time on laundry services, some hotels can provide an iron for guests to use in the room. If not, you can ask the staff to borrow one.
Phone charger
Our phones are essential to us. When going on a trip, if you happen to forget your phone charger at home, don’t worry. You can ask the receptionist to borrow a phone charger. Some hotels will have phone chargers available for guests to borrow if needed.
Umbrella
When you arrive at the hotel and find that the weather is too sunny or it’s raining heavily, you can simply ask the receptionist to borrow an umbrella. After using it, you just need to return the umbrella to the receptionist.
Slippers, towels, bathrobes, sun loungers
When staying at hotels from 3 stars and above with swimming pools or near the beach, you can borrow slippers, towels, and use sun loungers for free within the hotel premises.
At budget hotels, bathrobes are something you cannot take with you after checking out. However, at some high-end hotels, bathrobes with the customer’s name printed on them are considered included in the room rate, so guests can take them home.
Personal hygiene kit
Hotels provide complimentary personal hygiene kits, including shampoo, shower gel, soap, toothbrush, and toothpaste… Some places even provide cotton buds, shower caps, razors, dental floss, mouthwash…
Bottled water
Bottled water is something you can use for free at hotels. Hotels from 3 stars and above usually offer 2 complimentary mineral water bottles for guests. In addition, some places will provide free tea and coffee.
With bottled water, coffee/tea, and personal hygiene kits, you can take them with you if you want after checking out.
Sewing kit
Some hotels will provide a sewing kit with a needle and various color threads for guests to use when necessary. The sewing kit is usually placed in the bathroom or on the dressing table near the bed.
In case of accidental button loss or a few loose threads, you can use the hotel’s sewing kit for “first aid”. If this item is not available in the room, you can still ask the receptionist to borrow one.
