<title>What Is This Libyan Hotel Really Asking?</title>
<link>http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/7/15/15346/8003</link>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/61268/Libyan.jpg" class="top"><p>We found ourselves, once again, tittering in the corner after discovering this sorely mis-translated hotel sign from Libya. Canadian-British journalist <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/dougsaunders">@DougSaunders</a> recently shared the photo via Twitter, and we felt compelled to repost it. Not that it's right to make fun of linguistic barriers&#151;but, well, they said the word "kink." <p>Unlike last week's <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/7/1/162722/0580/hotels/What_Chinese_Hotel_Has_An_Execution_Floor_">mess</a> of a hotel sign, we're pretty sure we know what the hotel getting at here. Equally appealing is the caption provided by Doug Saunders, who writes under the photo, "My Libyan hotel seems to know me too well." Don't get too comfortable there, Doug!]]>                  </description>

<title>What Chinese Hotel Has An Execution Floor?</title>

<description>&#x3C;![CDATA[&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img src=&#x22;http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/61268/tumblr_lno80bqlRd1qg8bayo1_500.jpg&#x22; class=&#x22;top&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;We found this bizarre sign while trolling some Tumblr blogs this afternoon, and have to admit, we&#x27;re a little stumped. After &#x3C;s&#x3E;some diligent Google image searching we determined these were Japanese characters&#x3C;/s&#x3E; two people pointed out to us that these were simple Chinese characters, we&#x27;re still unclear as to what hotel this is, and what exactly an &#x22;execution floor&#x22; might be. &#x3C;P&#x3E;Our guess? It&#x27;s probably a poorly translated version of &#x22;Executive.&#x22; But maybe executing of a different sort does happen on this floor? &#x3C;p&#x3E;We are reminded of a certain &#x3C;a href=&#x22;http://www.vegaschatter.com/story/2010/9/27/11351/7561/vegas-travel/The_CityCenter_Death_Ray_Was_Not_A_Figment_Of_Our_Imagination&#x22;&#x3E;death ray hotel&#x3C;/a&#x3E; in Vegas that left one guest with a melted plastic bag and singed hair. This was also an initial concern at the &#x3C;a href=&#x22;http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/6/20/95041/9302/hotels/It_Turns_Out_New_York_Does_Have_Room_For_Two_Porthole_Hotels&#x22;&#x3E;newly-opened &#x3C;b&#x3E;Dream</description>

<title>London: This Hotel Makes Complicated Light Switches Uncomplicated</title>

Well, thankfully, we found an anti-dote to that at the &#x3C;a href=&#x22;http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Radisson+Edwardian+Hampshire+Hotel/ian/122650&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;b&#x3E;Hampshire Hotel&#x3C;/b&#x3E;&#x3C;/a&#x3E; in London&#x27;s Leicester Square. &#x3C;p&#x3E;This is the light switch panel found next to the bed (actually on both sides of the bed) inside a deluxe king room. See how easy they make it for us? If hotels are going to get all fancy schmancy with their lighting, then subtle directions for us would be nice--even if we did feel a bit like a grandma who needs labels on all her light switches. &#x3C;p&#x3E;But when we were passing out</description>

<title>Crazy Hotel Workers Update: Don&#x27;t Climb on the Balcony</title>
<link>http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/7/30/85510/7716</link>

Other Crazy Hotel Workers chimed in with a few good suggestions for the signage, like &#x22;Idiots cannot fly or land on their feet&#x22;. But we think this sign might get the message across more succinctly than the rest:&#x3C;blockquote&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E; Do not climb on the railings of the balconies. If you choose to do so and fall, the hotel staff will</description>

<title>The Disturbing Results of Embassy Suites&#x27; &#x27;Do Not Disturb&#x27; Sign Contest</title>

Please?&#x22; and &#x22;Shh... I&#x27;m hatching a plan to bust some little soaps out of here,&#x22; receive a three-night stay at select Embassy Suites locations and, beginning March 5, will see their designs displayed at the hotelier&#x27;s 190 properties. &#x3C;p&#x3E; But not all of the winning slogans are as embarrassingly childish for a grown adult to hang on his or her door as</description>
