Travelodge has revealed the most bizarre requests it has received in Slough, Windsor and Maidenhead over the last year.

This year, Travelodge has experienced a stampede of customers checking into its hotels across all corners of the UK, resulting in Travelodge hotel teams receiving an influx of interesting requests and questions from their customers during their stay. 

Topics have ranged from place names, local dishes, customs and traditions.

The Maidenhead Central Travelodge has received the most bizarre requests in Berkshire with one visitor asking 'Will you pick some apples from Cox Green for me? I’d like some with my breakfast.'

Another asked 'Do they only serve duck at the Fat Duck?'

While staff were shocked to be asked 'Will you sing the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang theme tune for me?'

In Slough's Bar Cafe Travelodge staff were asked 'It’s my daughter’s birthday, can you organise a fully loaded fifty pancake stack with confetti, sprinkles and unicorn candles at breakfast?'

Meanwhile, Windsor Travelodge has received many royal-themed requests, with 'Can we eat Windsor Pudding at Windsor Castle?' and 'What time can we meet the Merry Wives?' coming out on top.

Travelodge is one of the UK’s largest hotel chains with 581 hotels, with millions of customers staying for a variety of reasons each year.   

Shakila Ahmed, Travelodge Spokeswoman said: “Following a very difficult two years, Britons have taken full advantage this year to enjoy everything they have missed during the pandemic and this includes holidays and business trips.

“With more Britons holidaying on British shores than ever before our hotel teams have also received a high volume of interesting requests and questions.

"Where possible, our hotel teams will go above and beyond to help customers as they relish a good challenge. 

"However, there are some requests beyond their control such as being able to answer the question, ‘What time can we meet the Merry Wives?' by a customer who got confused with the title of a Shakespeare play.”
