WASHINGTON - Hotels.com revealed some of the most unusual items left behind at its partner hotels around the world, including a pet lizard, as well as some of the most bizarre room service requests, United Press International (UPI) reported.

The website's annual Hotel Room Innsights Report, based on data from more than 400 hotels across the globe, revealed the most common items left behind by guests include phone chargers, dirty laundry, power adaptors, make-up and toiletries.

The report said 10 per cent of hotels reported finding dentures left by guests.

Some of the most unusual items left behind in rooms include a Rolex watch, another watch worth US$6 million, a Hermes Birkin bag, keys and documents for a luxury car, a car tyre, an engagement ring, a tooth, two full-leg casts, stacks of cash, a pet lizard and a chick.

Hotels.com said the lizard and chick were safely reunited with their owners.

The report also detailed some of the most unusual room service requests at the hotels, including an Evian-filled tub for a child's bath, a customised allergen menu for a pet, burnt toast, a caviar hot dog, fresh goat milk, 4 pounds of bananas and a high five from a team member "to ensure their room service request was read." - BERNAMA
