Do Tea Drinkers Get The Short End Of The Hotel Stick?


Coffee coffee everywhere, and not a drop to drink...

When it comes to standard hotel amenities, coffee makers rank up there with pillows, a working toilet, soap. Basic. But for many of us, a bowl of instant coffee packets is about as useful as a hairbrush to a bald person. When it comes to in-room tea options, we've found some hotels to be quite lacking.

Take a look at most in-room tea and coffee amenities and what will you find?. Plenty of coffee! But where's the tea?

Nevermind the inconvenience of trekking to the nearest cafe for an early morning jolt when equally-in-need coffee drinkers can simply reach across their nightstand but it also raises an uglier question. What should be considered an essential hotel room amenity?

Surely, if someone took the time to fold the tip of our toilet paper roll, artfully sealing it with a small hotel-branded sticker, then that person probably had enough time to drop a few bags of Twining's English Breakfast on our desk. No?
