The first thing I do when I get to my hotel room is fill up the ice bucket. Who likes warm drinks?

What hotel is fancy enough to have ice buckets and dispensers but not a fucking fridge?

I don't think I've ever been to a hotel that didn't have an ice dispenser/bucket, but have been to plenty that don't have a fridge. Heck, Motel 6 has ice machines and a stupid plastic bucket.

Weird, I don't think I've ever seen an ice dispenser. Is this a USA thing?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Very likely.. A lot of road trip travel by car, sometimes toting coolers. And Americans like their beverages cold.

Yup. I was super surprised when I heard that in Europe, they don't give you ice by default, and they give you seltzer unless you ask specifically for something else.

Fridge takes hours to cool a drink, but put it in an ice bucket and it'll be cold after you're done pooping.

I feel like I'm the only person who goes to a hotel to sleep, not chill a 24 pack of diet Coke and a bottle of champagne to drink (without this hotel ice) after eating a ham sandwich out of my rolling cooler which needs a top off.

Where are you all traveling with your champagne and ham sandwiches?!

  • nice hotels as a romantic getaway
  • less nice hotels for a tinder hookup
  • ghetto motels to avoid homelessness
