Staying at a hotel can feel like a delightful escape from the reality of day-to-day life. After all, most of us don’t have access to room service, mysterious new bath products or complimentary breakfast in our usual routines.
But hotel stays can also come with their fair share of downsides and funny moments. The cost of minibar items and fees added to the nightly room rate can certainly come as a surprise.
As with other life experiences, the hilarious folks on X, formerly known as Twitter, have found ways to laugh about it. We’ve rounded up 35 funny and relatable tweets about hotel stays.
I am 32 years old and still deeply terrified that consuming anything from the hotel room minibar will bankrupt my entire family somehow

Whoever makes hotel lotion needs to answer for their crimes. Leaves skin ashier than before you put it on.

What is more embarrassing the fact that I just washed my hair with the hotel body lotion or the fact that this isn’t the first time?

An ironing board, he saw an ironing board.
I think hotels set their rates based on how hard the shower is to figure out.

I would enjoy my hotel stay so much more if there were fewer full length mirrors in play. Keep the mystery alive it’s called a VACATION

As you book your summer vacations, don't forget that all your kids really want to do is swim in a hotel pool.
Every hotel has an ironing board that works like every other ironing board, and a shower whose operation requires careful study and a bit of luck

It's nice that hotels keep a bible in the room, so while you're committing sins you can check to make sure you don't miss any.
