Does anyone else miss single use soaps in hotel rooms?

Same here. And I’ve traveled a lot this year.


Me, too. The faux-snooty poster who says there aren’t bars of soap anymore is laughable.


I don't think it's snooty or faux-snooty. Many Holiday Inn Express pland other IHG properties have the dispensers locked to the wall and don't have bars of soap. They aren't high end hotels.

it reacted to your body because it was a smaller piece of soap versus from the larger dispensers? thats seems like something that could happen regardless of the packaging

That's not at all what Faux Snooty (10:01) said.

I never use the hotel soaps because I am usually allergic to the synthetic fragrance.

I have to bring my own and it is nice having your own products that you know work well on your skin.

They gross me out too op. I’ve had some messed up intrusive thoughts about a pervert putting something nasty in the conditioner one.

I like the fancy shampoos and body washes in these larger containers. I agree they are upgraded from the single use bottles. I also hate the waste. And I like how the large bottles look, design wise. I’m thinking of getting them for home!

Yes, but this is only in tower tier hotels that we stay in for travel sports. Nicer hotels still give individual items.

They are locked.

Only the cheap hotels have the community style crap in them. Stay at nicer places they still use bar soap.

Pretty much everywhere has bar soap available still. Even Waldorf Astoria is using the refillable as of my last stay earlier this year.

No more of these dumb sliding barn doors.


Omg yes. Especially since they sometimes don’t close all the way.


Those doors are my pet peeve!!

I don’t miss them at all. Like others I hate all the plastic waste. I much prefer the bigger bottles.

I bring empty bottles and get a small workout filling them with the pump dispensers in the shower.

I always think to myself during our hotel stays now how the soap, shampoo, conditioner, and body lotion dispensers attached the bathroom wall make me feel like I'm staying in a hospital, or maybe in a fast food bathroom. It's all very anticeptic and low rent now, but that's the way our whole society is going, OP.

Hilton is so low brow.
