Romantic stuff, like petals in a heart shaped on your bed for your anniversary.

At the Hotel De La Paix in Luang Prabang, Laos (now a Sofitel) – for our 21st anniversary.

Placing a bookmark in your book when you have left it upturned on your bedside table, or splayed out on your sun lounge while taking a dip.

Left splayed by the bed – miraculously bookmarked by housekeeping.

Complimentary sunscreen while sun-baking

By the pool at the Imperial Hotel New Delhi, where they supplied complimentary suntan lotion. Unfortunately it’s smell was a little too reminiscent of public toilet disenfectant of the sickly sweet kind.

Tidying your computer or phone recharge cords with a velcro cord tidy.

Velcro iPhone cord tidy at the Four Seasons Sayan in Ubud. Housekeeping tidied them every day.

That thing they do in the bathroom, where the staff tidy your bathroom products, and place them in an orderly fashion on a square of toweling.

I don’t know what it is, but I just love coming back to the room, and seeing that housekeeping has created order out of chaos for my bathroom accoutrements.
