            Is anyone else really annoyed at the hotels' switch to heavy duvets/comforters?

            Jump to last reply Flag this topic

            I have stayed in a number of hotels this year, and am annoyed at the trend toward duvets/comforters that are much too warm for the room unless you crank up the air-conditoning. Or: this would be less annoying if they at least provided a separate top sheet so that you don't have to super-cool the room to be comfortable. (I asusme that most people like a little covering when they sleep.) In every hotel where I've stayed, I ask them to provide a lighter weight blanket, which is often a regular blanket, substituted for the down thing in the slipcase.

            I know there are many reasons for the change (hygiene, fewer items to wash, "the" design trend, etc.) However, you would think that the managers could distringuish between Alpine chalets and modern hotel rooms.

            Your opinions?
