Why is there a piece of cloth on the hotel bed?

A piece of cloth will be placed on the hotel bed to protect the sheets.

Many people think it is just a piece of cloth. In fact, it has its own name, called "bed flag." The most direct function of a bed flag is to protect the sheets. The bed flag originated in the United States, and it can be said that it is an imported product. In the early years, the reason why Americans spread their beds there was because Americans didn't like to take off their shoes before going to bed. In order to prevent the sheets from getting dirty, they put a piece of cloth at the end of the bed.

After entering the room, many guests often like to put their bags and some handbags on the bed. These items are sometimes dirty. If they are all placed on the bed sheets, they will even stain the bed sheets and affect the mood of the guests. And when it gets dirty, it will increase the workload of the hotel staff, because someone needs to come and change it for you. Therefore, in order to reduce these unnecessary troubles, usually after cleaning the room, a bed flag will be placed at the end of the bed.

Bed flags also have an invisible effect, which can prevent guests from catching cold

After staying in a hotel, many guests will kick the quilt or turn over at night, leaving the quilt on the floor. , it is easier to catch a cold at this time. An invisible function of the bed flag is that when it is spread at the end of the bed, because the bed flag is relatively long and has a certain weight, it can indirectly prevent the quilt from falling to the ground.

This actually reflects the hotel's humanistic care. After all, every small detail involves the guest's experience. Only when guests feel that they are paying attention and have a good experience will they repurchase next time and the hotel will realize the spread of its brand.
