Yeah - I KNEW you just HAD to take a look at this thread. ;)

In some of the finer hotels of the world, no detail is too small to overlook. I once stayed at the Plaza in New York City and when I first entered my bathroom I noticed that the toilet paper ends had been folded Origami-style.

This intrigued me, as I normally stay in hotels that don't even HAVE toilet paper - they use back isses of National Geographic.

For every successive day the paper was folded in a new shape. Evidently being skilled in Asian paper-folding techniques is a requisite for maids these days. If you'd like to add a touch of class to your own home, or are just terribly bored, here's how to do it. Enjoy!

Yes, you tricked me with curiousity SifuPhil but it is amazing what the pictures show. Now about these other "hotels" you stay in . . . that would be an interesting thread!

LOL - it would be a tale told by idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing (Macbeth - Act 5, scene 5).
 

Nice photos, I have never seen anything like that in any hotels I have stayed at. That is a really nice addition to any hotel I think..
 
Came across these origami pieces today, very cool! :cool: More here.

(bolded) :lofl:

The Plaza?? Oohhhh, I’m scared of you! Fanciest hotel I stayed in was in NYC 1994 – the Rihga Royal. But the hotel and flight were paid for by a morning talk show. :) I've stayed at a plushy Marriott and Hyatt, but nothing special about the toilet tissue.

That is some impressive TP, Phil.
 
One of our favorite waiters at the Edgewater Buffet uses their standard table napkins, paper, and makes the most beautiful roses out of them! Wish I had a pic to show. Last one went home with my wife's Mom to Indiana. imp
