Hotels Are Revealing Some Of The Most Bizarre Room Service Requests

What is it about staying in a hotel that makes people act like they're rock stars who are entitled to anything their hearts might desire?  I guess it's because a hotel is not your home so the normal rules don't apply. I mean, you don't really have to pick up after yourself, do you? The hotel has people to do that for you. And then there's room service. You're certainly not getting that at home.

There is something sort of "rock star" about having an entire meal brought to your room and all you have to do is sign for it. Don't worry, the sticker shock will come later. More than a quarter (27%) of U.S. hotels say their guests spend more than $100 for room service, on average. It's sort of worth it, though, right? Especially if you're worn out from traveling and just want to eat a cheeseburger in bed. But some people go way beyond a burger.

Hotels.com has just released their first Room Service Report, which includes room service requests from nearly 500 hotels in the U.S. and around the world. According to Metro, the report gives us a peek into what people are ordering from their hotel rooms. If you’ve ever felt bad for ordering something off-menu at a hotel, take comfort in the fact that it’s probably not the strangest request they’ve received.

Because regular water is soooo fattening. I'm guessing they meant some kind of electrolyte-enhanced smart water.

When the microwave in your room isn't working and you just don't have time to wait for nature to take its course.

Are some hotels BYOF? Kudos to any hotel that actually honors this request. That's going above and beyond.

If I see any egg white, I'm sending it back! This is definitely a rock star request. It's like the old story of Van Halen demanding that there not be any brown M&M's in the backstage area, although, they had a good reason for doing that. It was to make sure that local concert promoters were actually reading the contracts. Smart.

I have questions about this one. Were they asking for a bison steak, a bison burger, or an actual live bison? It's important to make that very clear up front because it could affect the price.
