Be honest: if you have a hotel room, do you bring free gifts?
Travelers have admitted to taking everything from the little shampoo bottles to the TV remote batteries – although we don’t recommend the latter.
So what is good to take and what should be left behind?
The presenter told 9Travel: “There’s a certain unspoken law about what you can and can’t take from the hotel room.”
First the don’ts. “Leave the towels alone, buddy. And that TV isn’t going anywhere.”
However, there is one useful item that Catriona takes with her from every hotel room she stays in: the shower cap.
“When you’re traveling, you can use a shower cap for all kinds of different things,” she advises.
“You might want to take one last dip before you go on vacation. Then wrap the wet cozzie in the shower cap and put it away.”
“When you pack your dirty underwear, wrap them in the shower cap.”
They are also ideal for keeping dirty shoes away from your clothes. “You don’t want a footprint on your clothes, so place a shower cap over the soles of your shoes before putting them away.”
Catriona really likes her shower caps. “It’s just one of the best things.”
Please check the amenity kit in your room to see if you have been provided with a nail file. “These are absolutely brilliant,” she says, keeping them on hand for any nail emergencies.
If you go to Catriona’s house, she admits you might find some familiar soaps in her bathroom.
“I haven’t paid for soap in years,” she confesses, saying she always takes it with her when checking out. “It’s okay, no one minds.”
But just don’t take the towels.
Her golden rule is: “As long as it’s not too big or too expensive, it’s almost disrespectful not to include the little amenity kits.”
