Shakila Ahmed, Travelodge Spokeswoman said: “As a result of Travelodge changing for a new modern look and feel, more new business customers and families have been staying across our 500 UK based hotels. Therefore, this year’s lost & found inventory list has revealed some new unique items being left behind, such as: a Coutts cheque book, a business contract for an online company, an antique dolls house, a child’s Porsche car, a Star Wars Storm Trooper outfit and a feng shui aquarium.
“Our 2014 left behind register also revealed how much smart technology has become a part of our everyday lives, as we have had 12,000 tablets and smartphones left behind in our hotels in the last 12 months. This is a significant increase from previous years.
