Is the price of a bottle of coke in 42 yuan, a hotel in Shanghai, reasonable and legal?

Unreasonable.

First of all, we should know whether the hotel is clearly marked. If not, it violates the provisions of Article 42 of the Price Law on "clearly marking the price". You should choose to complain to protect your rights and interests.

In addition, the goods clearly marked by the hotel are dozens of times the market price, and people are not discriminating against anyone. The hotel provides accommodation, and instant noodles and drinks are for the convenience of customers, not for forced sale. This must be the case in five-star hotels. It doesn't matter to the rich that they consume these things, but we ordinary people can choose not to drink or eat in this situation.

Take-out is so convenient now that you can order. If you can't wait any longer, you can also drink it and sell it to the hotel to make up for it.

Price law refers to the general name of laws and regulations formulated by the state to adjust various economic relations related to price setting, implementation and supervision.
