Whether it’s for travel or business, staying in a hotel is a common experience, but one that requires caution. Security concerns in unfamiliar places are not uncommon, especially for solo travellers and women. Concerns about hidden cameras and intruders have left many feeling uneasy during their hotel stays.
To address these concerns, Esther Strus, a flight attendant for a Dutch airline, shared a few practical hotel safety tips on social media, based on her own experiences during frequent travel.
One of her standout suggestions is surprisingly simple: throw an empty water bottle under the bed upon entering the room. According to Esther, this quick trick can help detect if someone might be hiding underneath. “If the bottle comes out the other side, it’s clear. But if it gets stuck, someone could be there, leave immediately,” she advised.
She also shared a clever hack to avoid forgetting valuables. Esther places her shoes inside the hotel room locker as soon as she arrives. “People often forget things in the locker, but no one forgets their shoes,” she explained. By doing so, travellers are more likely to remember to check the locker before checking out.
These simple precautions, she says, can greatly reduce the chances of falling victim to theft or danger during a hotel stay. As concerns about privacy and safety in hotels continue to rise, such tips are resonating widely with travellers around the world.
