Guests dislike it when people save pool chairs with towels for a long time, leave their rooms very messy, and are loud in the hallways at night. They also dislike it when people hang wet clothes on the balcony, don't leave reviews, and are mean to hotel staff.

Smoking or vaping in rooms is not allowed, and neither is putting the wrong number of guests on the reservation. Leaving alarms or phones ringing for a long time is also bad, as is not reading reviews before booking and not using rewards points.

Most people think they are considerate hotel guests.

A survey of 2000 hotel guests found that Hotels.com is offering £100 in rewards for future trips after 10 nights. The company made this offer after the survey and also created a guide with William Hanson. Guests can get this reward through the Hotels.com program.

Melanie Fish, a travel expert, said that small changes can make a big difference.

She said that checking reviews and using rewards can make a trip better and help with the travel budget.

The survey found that 90% of guests think they are considerate, but 39% think people have become less respectful in recent years.

Guests also dislike it when people sneak in extra guests and show too much affection by the pool.

William Hanson and Hotels.com made a guide for hotel etiquette.

The survey also asked which nationalities are the most polite and which are the rudest.

Japanese tourists are considered the most polite, followed by Swedish tourists, and then tourists from the UK.

At the other end, American tourists are seen as the most impolite.

They are just below German tourists, according to the survey.

William Hanson said that good hotel etiquette can improve a guest's own stay.

He said that small, thoughtful behaviors can lead to big rewards, like better sleep, service, and savings on future trips.
