Emptying the Mini-Bar?

[Yikes]

As a rule I avoid consuming snacks and drinks from a hotels mini-bar. I would prefer making one trip to the market and buying a few cases of water and healthy snacks. Has anyone had success asking to have the mini-bar emptied? Will the hotels accommodate such a request?

I don't ask - I just empty the fridge onto a surface/shelf somewhere and fill the fridge with my own stuff. No-one's complained yet, and never had a "visitor" go for the warm stuff out of the fridge.

I stay in the sabilodge all the time. First thing i do is take everything out the fridge and put it next to it. Go up to BigC and Subway and fill it with my own stuff. Never had a problem with the hotel topping it up when it obviously does'nt need it.

 

The easy thing to do is ask at reception when you get there. I know loads of mates do the same as me in diff hotels and have no problems

Thanks. I'll ask.

I always make sure I get a place witb a BIG fridge sop it deosnt really matter as the mini bar only takes up a tiny amount of the space.

Which hotels so I can avoid & what happens if you do?

 

For the guys who empty the mini bar do you have trouble with the hotel billing you because you took it out of the fridge? I did stay at the Montien once & the mini bar was chocker with their stuff but too scared to move as afraid they might hit me with extra charges.

The sabailodge has never charged me. i empty it as soon as i get there and leave its contents where the staff can see it so they know what i am doing
