People Are Sharing The Worst Hotel Fails From Their Trips (30 Pics)

Do you know the statistics of how many people actually die from soft nipples every year? Me neither. But if you ever have CPR done on you in Thailand and wake up with sore nipples, at least be grateful for it might just saved your life.

Found at the Wingate by Wyndham Hotel, this note was placed under the fitted bottom sheet. The unlucky fellow who stumbled across it said he could "clearly see the sheet of paper when pulled the top sheet and blanket back." Makes you wonder how long it was there, doesn't it? Could be from pre-2000's for all we know.

More like ... Fail-sinki, am I right? Or Hell-sinki? No? Badsinki? I give up. If you want to check out this gem of worst design with your own eyes, visit the Scandic Helsinki, a four star business hotel that always knows how to surprise its guests.

To this point, no one (even Julio) aren't sure how he got stuck. The glass sliding door may have been jammed in some way because Julio had to pretty much completely remove it. Sadly, witnesses say Julio didn't talk much. He just kept telling them to make sure they told the front desk about their troubles so they could get a compensation for that day of the stay. And to anyone wondering, it was the poor guy's girlfriend who called for help and took that priceless pic, no hotel ghosts were involved!

Courtyard Marriott, everyone. Interior design that makes you pay to walk like a penguin. Unless you have the eye of Sherlock Holmes and are able to plan ahead. Then you're fine.

The person who took this photo said that it's a somewhat new hotel, opened a little over a year ago. "Definitely not a temporary wall," they added. "There is another room just to the left of the frame of the pic."
You can check-in anytime, but you can never leave, muahaha!

Cleaner: "Sir, it doesn't matter what we use, the stuff just doesn't come off."
Manager: "Put a frame around it and let's call it art."

You know what that means, right? The architect who designed it probably lives in that building across the street, constantly hoping to see some action.

Everyone has their own motivational quotes that keep them going during tough times. This hotel decided to go with the classical one "Your text sample text your text sample text here your text" because such wisdom surely enriches everyone's lives.

No, no, it's not a design fail - it's called "Shower drain pube collection" and is valued at $250,000. An original work of Pubelo Pissaco.

When you think about it, it's funny that golden letters over golden wallpaper weren't posh enough. They had to get golden nails as well.

This funny fail from China probably was born because of Google Translate. At least they tried to warn the guests. Or maybe they're certain you're going to slip, so they want to make sure you do it with grace.

According to the guest, however, they didn't mind the obstruction. "I see kids playing in the rubbish piles all day long," they said. "Breaks your heart." As you might've guessed, this hotel is located "well away" from the touristy parts of Delhi.

In case you're wondering, you can check out this fabulous view in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, at Residence Inn by Marriott, right across the... courtyard, of course. Just make sure to find out if they have a room with panoramic windows. 

I wonder, how many "displays" had to be stolen before the hotel put up this sign? Nothing says "Welcome" better than making your guests feel like thieves.

This was off of Interstate 95 in southern Georgia and, according to the guest, they just stopped there overnight on their way to Florida. I hope they left the establishment a one-star rating, though! The less motels that don't mow their pool regularly, the better.

Spotted at Novotel (Wellington, New Zealand), at least these curtains made for a really daddy dad joke. And what about those sheets, blankets, and upholstery that also had random red-ish and off-white splotches "printed" on them? Pretty funny, huh?

OK, let's say there's a reasonable explanation for why the salt and pepper have to be sealed. Why keep the bags in bottles, though? Closed bottles? Just put a lock on them if you don't want to your guests to bankrupt you with their excessive use of spices and minerals, you scrooge.

If you haven't liked it, then you should have put a shoe on it. And if you feel as if this hotel doesn't care about its guests at all, you're right. I mean, just look at those misaligned skirting boards in the background.

Jenny Kershaw from Manchester, tweeted a photo from the Booking dot com page of the Mari Gold Hotel & Apartment in Vietnam, highlighting a stunning swimming pool against a sunny sky. But next to the glamorous snap she shared a photo of the reality – a tiny hot tub. Interestingly, as her tweet was going viral, the travel company got in contact with Jenny, asking if she would like to make a formal complaint but she declined. Talk about holiday spirit!

An ADA-compliant sign that's very similar to this costs about $8 on Amazon, but I guess that's way too much if you're a a cheap skate hotel operator.

At first, they give you a breakfast tray that contains a toaster then they charge you for $300 for lost equipment. And that's only for the shampoo.

What's the railing's purpose in this picture? To help guests climb the steep stairs or to... Prevent people from falling to their death each time they leave the room? Well, whatever the answer is, let's hope the door doesn't open outwards.

The person who took this pic said that the symbols were probably made out of plastic or a resin. And even though they confessed they don't know much about Braille, they tried feeling it and couldn’t differentiate between the dots and the bumpy design at all. I wonder why.

No one wants to sleep in used sheets or wear robes that have already been worn by other guests. That's why white is the ultimate color of service since it's easiest to spot any dirt. Some hotels nowadays are going green and only washing the items that have clearly been used. So maybe it's best to leave your dirty robe on the floor instead of hanging it back up the next time you're in a hotel ?

You know that feeling when you're a hotel owner and the customers don't know how to ration their hot water usage? Well, the owner of this hotel apparently had had enough and went to the trouble of inventing ways to stop people from taking hot showers. Perhaps a cold shower of negative reviews will change this owner's mind sooner or later.

At least the lavatory is in a separate room. And you can chat to your SO while they're watching TV. Just don't book this room if you're planning to go on a business trip with your colleague.

A carpet with a killer design. Literally. Nothing's more relaxing than going to your hotel room and finding out that either a murder took place in the hotel's corridor or the blood elevator scene from Stanley Kubrick's 'The Shining' is actually a thing which happens from time to time in real hotels as well. And if that's the case, why should some one be bothered with changing the carpets?

It's what you get after you write 'congrats' and realize that you still have half your rose petals left over. Just one question, though. Who the hell is Tulation?

If you're wondering, the guy's 6'5". But his 5'9" wife wasn't impressed either. Sorry. No pictures of her in the shower, though.

Minibar items are always ridiculously overpriced, but what if you just want to check out what's inside and accidentally move some items? Well in this hotel you'd be safer to never even touch the air around the minibar. Just imagine what the bill would look like if an earthquake happened during your stay!
