And many of the guests would be very wary of them, convinced they were "abandoned" as part of a trick...

Guests who are evicted for brawling and pissing on the carpet come back wearing a different hat and claiming to be someone else.

Guests in a room next door to a noisy neighbour would be wandering around reception asking other guests what they should do about it.

Outraged at having their car knocked in the car park the DIYers would have an assortment of rattle cans in roughly he same colour as the damaged cars, and attempts at removing dents using boiling water, compressed air or stuffing un-popped pop corn in panel cavities before heating the panel would rife.

Anybody found to be smoking within a mile of the hotel grounds would be run out of town by those claiming their clothes now stank of second hand smoke.

The prices at the bar will be claimed to be either reasonably priced or hideously expensive.

Dirty takeaways from the local kebab shop will of course contain more fat and be smothered in 1kg of melted cheese

And occasionally a little boy donning stilts shall turn up claiming to be a grown up.

Yes, and they are allowed to stay until someone works out who they were from before by over-analysing every single detail of their speech pattern and every move they make, and accusing them of being a new person until they eventually flounce off again

there will be a picture hung in every bedroom of a certain council 'lady' clothed in a navy leotard with a navy chiffon covering, holding a wine glass, posed against some kitchen cabinets and white goods

The Honeymoon suite will have two-way mirrors so that observers can secretly watch and give marks on their performance.

Other people would turn up, the hotel would have no record of them ever having stayed, but they'd go on about the hotel as if they'd been there years.

On the same basis, it would be a big no-no to revisit the hotel under an assumed name, but everyone would do it anyway. The management (see above, sealed in an inaccessible office) would not care.

At half term/holiday time small children would arrive, disguise themselves as adults, and walk round the hotel telling outrageous lies.

The hotel owners would refuse to spend any money refurbishing and improving the place and eventually a nice shiny new hotel opens across the way and business suffers. The owners refuse to acknowledge this even when the place is an hollow empty shell devoid of real humans.

It would be kitted out with stuff made by group companies selling the same products under different brands for less, and labelled “the thinking mans hotels”

PH hotel : every hallway would be lined with screens blaring adverts at you.
You would be booted out of your room on random occasions, and have to book in again.

In reception, there would be an old rocking chair with a man (let's call him Eric Stiff) telling gentle anecdotes about the local law enforcement agencies.

Gentle, but very, very long.

A handful of guests would annoy everyone else by saying their name at the end of every sentence they spoke.

Just as you went to put your key in your room's door, the adverts would suddenly appear, push all the doors sideways and you'd end up in your neighbour's room.

Or by 'parrot fashion' repeating the whole of what the previous person has just said before then saying what they want to say themselves.
