The hotel will not return the items left by the guests.

Legal subjectivity:

If it is found that something lost by others is not returned, it belongs to unjust enrichment and should be returned to the owner. Unjust enrichment refers to obtaining benefits at the expense of others without legal basis. Taking other people's property for yourself has no legal basis and should be unjust enrichment. If the owner refuses to return it when demanded, and the amount reaches the crime standard, it can constitute the crime of embezzlement.

Legal objectivity:

Article 270 of the Criminal Law: Whoever illegally occupies other people's property for safekeeping and refuses to return it in a large amount shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than two years, criminal detention or a fine; If the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than two years but not more than five years and shall also be fined. Whoever illegally takes forgetting things and buried objects of others for himself and refuses to hand them over in a large amount shall be punished in accordance with the provisions of the preceding paragraph. This crime can only be dealt with if it is spoken.
