A UK airline has revealed just some of the bizarre items British holidaymakers have left at hotels in Europe over the past year.
easyJet conducted a survey of some 100 hotels across Europe, all part of the airline’s Holidays portfolio, to establish what sorts of things people leave behind after their vacations are over.
To say the results are weird would be an understatement.
Topping the list are dentures, with false teeth so often found in hotel rooms after guests check out that some places even confess to keeping them in lost property, just in case.
One hotel said they’d found a whole array of witchcraft paraphernalia, presumably left behind by a wanna-be sorceress.
Some guests flew home without prosthetic limbs, even a glass eye in one case, while others forgot to take with them more sentimental items.
Most often, these include wedding rings and personal photographs, though one traveller returned to her hotel to retrieve a ‘lucky teacup’ left to her by her grandmother.
While it might be easy to leave cash on the bedside table, one of easyJet’s German hotels say they found thousands and thousands of old Mark coins secreted behind a toilet water tank in the bathroom.
Further strange items included an inflatable boat, tins of caviar, rosary beads, and a full clown costume, complete with red nose, wig and oversized shoes.
