Hotel Signs
Filed in archive Hotels/Resorts by Melissa Petri on January 27, 2006

Whatever the business is, a displayed structure with letters or symbols is needed to identify or advertise the place of business. Hotels, like all other businesses, need a good signage to attract customers. Some make it look posh and have stars on them to reflect the hotel's class; others have the sign "Leading Hotels of the World" to reflect the standards the hotel has reached. Hotels also have taken to helping conserve the environment by leaving signs in bathrooms encouraging guests to reuse towels, etc.
Some hotels, however, may need to re-consider their signages inside and outside. Read on...
In a hotel in athens
: Visitors are expected to complain at the office between the hours of 9 and 11 A.M. daily. In a Paris hotel elevator: Please leave your values at the front desk.
In a Japanese hotel: You are invited to take advantage of the chambermaid.
In a Vienna hotel: In case of fire, do your utmost to alarm the hotel porter.
In a Swiss mountain inn: Special today -- no ice cream.
In an Acapulco hotel: The manager has personally passed all the water served here.
I sure hope, for their sakes, that their guests' english is as bad as theirs.
