Pillow menu

Wednesday, November 20th, 2013

Why is it that hotels offer pillow menus? You jokingly state all the logical conclusions including but not limited to:

Fluffy ones
Flat ones
Hard ones
Latex ones
Everyone’s different! I hear you shout hotels are just adding value meeting the needs of their guests. The business hats amongst you say the hotel is adding a point of difference to its competitors to increase sales loyalty and ultimately profit.

But does this menu help with the thing you need most a good nights sleep? For unless you are on a dirty weekend away with the one you love. Sleep is all this bed is for.

Sleep is about relaxing the mind and having to make another decision at the end of the day right before I go to sleep is just unnecessary. You wake in the middle of the night was it the pillow? Should I have gone with latex instead of fluffy? You get my point. When you spend about 100 nights a year in a hotel like I do 5 different pillow types multiplied by 100 nights. That’s 1200 combinations and choices that I just don’t need.
