Argentinian travellers are the most likely to indulge in hotel misappropriation, a survey has suggested, with 73 percent admitting to taking items – not including toiletries – from their room.

調查表明,阿根廷遊客最喜歡從酒店順東西——73%的阿根廷受訪者承認除了梳洗用品,他們還拿過酒店房間裏的其它物品。

British guests, in comparison, would appear far more reticent – with less than half of those surveyed owning up to pinching hotel property, putting them 16th out of 28 nationalities and regions to feature.

相比之下,英國遊客拘謹得多——不到一半的受訪者表示曾在酒店偷拿物品,這個比例在28個受調查國家和地區中位列16。

哪個國家的遊客最愛從酒店順東西

The global poll of almost 5,000 travellers, conducted by , found that Singaporean and Spanish holidaymakers are also rather prone to thievery, with seven in 10 taking items from their hotel. Germany, Ireland and Russia completed the top five.

在全球範圍對5000名遊客進行了調查,結果顯示,七成的新加坡和西班牙度假者也喜歡從酒店裏偷拿物品,並列第二位。前五名還有德國,愛爾蘭和俄羅斯。

At the other end of the scale, Colombians were found to be the least likely to take something – just 31 percent admitting to bagging hotel property. They were followed by travellers from Norway, South Korea, Hong Kong and Denmark.

而哥倫比亞遊客是最守規矩的——僅有31%的遊客曾偷拿過酒店的物品。其次還有來自挪威,韓國,中國香港和丹麥。

The most common items taken by British travellers were stationary (20 percent admitted taking such items) and slippers (12 percent).

英國遊客最愛順的物品是文具(20%的遊客曾偷拿過)和拖鞋(12%)。

Toiletries were not included, a spokesperson said, as “everyone takes these”. Indeed, the vast majority of hotels apparently expect guests to remove all the shampoo and shower gel.

本次調查並不包括梳洗用品,因爲調查發言人稱,“那是人人都會拿的東西”。其實多數酒店不但不反對,反而很支持遊客帶走衛生間的洗髮水和沐浴露。

As Jacob Tomsky, author of the best-selling Heads in Beds, a memoir of ten years spent in the hotel industry, explains: “No respectable hotelier is going to want to pry open your luggage and search for shampoo. We hope you take the amenities. We want you to use them later and think of us.”

把十年酒店從業經驗寫成暢銷書《酒店那些事》(“Heads in Beds”)的作者雅各布·湯姆斯基解釋說:“優秀的酒店經理從不會檢查旅客包裏有沒有偷藏洗髮水。我們反而希望旅客能帶走這些一次性物品,他們日後使用時還能想起我們。”

Theft of other items is not acceptable, however. In Japan a few years ago, one hotel reportedly had a young couple arrested for running off with bathrobes and an ashtray, while a woman in Nigeria was sentenced to three months in prison for stealing two towels from the Transcorp Hilton Abjua Hotel. In the vast majority of cases you would be unlikely to end up behind bars, but do the same and you can expect to be blacklisted by the hotel, or to find an extra charge on your credit card once when you get home.

除此之外,酒店的其它東西當然不可以拿。幾年前在日本,一對情侶曾因偷了酒店的浴袍和菸灰缸而被捕。一名女士因在尼日利亞的阿布賈希爾頓國際酒店偷拿了兩條毛巾而被判三年有期徒刑。當然多數情況下,偷拿一些酒店物品並不會坐牢,但可能會被列入酒店黑名單,或是等你到家時發現信用卡被額外扣款。
