Travelodge has experienced a "stampede of customers" checking into its hotels across the UK following the lifting of Covid-19 restrictions this year.

This has resulted in the Travelodge hotel teams receiving an influx of interesting requests and questions from their customers during their stay. 

Topics have ranged from place names, local dishes, customs and traditions across the diverse regions that make up the United Kingdom to random requests.  

Shakila Ahmed, Travelodge Spokeswoman said: “Following a very difficult two years, Britons have taken full advantage this year to enjoy everything they have missed during the pandemic and this includes holidays and business trips.

We have experienced a significant increase in bookings across our 581 UK Travelodge hotels this year including our three hotels in Oxford, with Britons taking more short breaks and turning a concert or sporting event into a Minication.

"Also with more Britons holidaying on British shores than ever before our hotel teams have also received a high volume of interesting requests and questions especially around attractions, locations, local dishes, customs and traditions across our diverse British regions.  

"Where possible, our hotel teams will go above and beyond to help customers as they relish a good challenge. However, there are some requests beyond their control such as arranging for a bedtime story to be read to a customer’s Bichon Frise called Betty when she was going out with friends for dinner.”
