Hotel guests from Hong Kong are Asia’s most honest
Are also ranked the fourth most honest in the world.
A global survey by Hotels.com that asked travelers which hotel amenities they decided to keep after checking out showed that guests from Denmark pilfered the least, followed by those from the Netherlands and Norway. Hong Kong, Brazil and Canada were tied for fourth globally.
The results also showed the majority of hotel guests (65%) claimed to have never stolen from a hotel room, except toiletries.
Chinese and Indian hotel guests were found to be more prone to taking advantage of a hotel’s generosity however. Both countries placed joint 23rd (with the U.S.) and 27th, respectively, out of 29 nations polled.
Magazines and books (13%) were found to the most-taken hotel items followed by linen and towels (11%). Just 3% of respondents admitted to having taken a bathrobe and 1% stole the hotel pillow.
