32 Bizarre Items Guests Requested from Hotel Employees

Whether it’s media depictions like Four Rooms or The White Lotus, we’ve seen plenty of fictional hotel employees being put in situations they absolutely shouldn’t have to deal with. Unfortunately, those media depictions are on par with real life, prompting those workers to flock to Reddit to reveal the strangest requests guests have made of them. One guy recalls being asked to provide a block of wood, doughnut, ball of twine, three nails, club sandwich, a bucket of ice and a hatchet “as sharp as the devil himself.” Though OP didn’t disclose the reason for this confusing list of items, he somehow managed to gather the loot in a bizarre side quest and was ultimately rewarded with $1,100. 

Others also remembered the things guests needed in order to feel right at home, and maybe these people should consider booking an Airbnb instead.
