Unused Hotel Amenities: A Look at What Guests Overlook

Osaka, Japan – A recent social media video from Hotel Relief Namba Daikokucho has sparked discussion by highlighting three hotel amenities that, according to their "reverse ranking," are rarely used by guests. The video, featuring a hotel employee, showcases items often found in hotel rooms but frequently overlooked or ignored by visitors. The first item on the list is the in-room humidifier. The employee demonstrates the process of filling the humidifier, suggesting that the perceived effort involved might deter guests from using it. This aligns with observations from some travelers who prefer simpler, ready-to-use amenities. Next, the video points to the humble shoehorn. The employee questions whether guests even notice its presence, let alone carry one to use. While a common fixture, its utility appears to be lost on many modern travelers. Finally, the hotel's paid Video On Demand (VOD) service is identified as another underutilized offering. The employee notes that guests are often unwilling to pay the 1,000 yen fee for content, raising questions about the value proposition of such services in an era of widespread personal streaming subscriptions. The video concludes by inviting viewers to share their own experiences, prompting a conversation about which hotel amenities truly matter to today's travelers. This unique perspective from a hotel insider offers a glimpse into guest habits and the practical realities of hotel room provisions.
