30 FORGOTTEN Hotel Amenities We All Miss #1960s #1970s #1980s #backtoyesterday Do you remember when staying at a hotel felt truly magical? In this video, we’ll take a nostalgic journey back to discover 30 FORGOTTEN Hotel Amenities We All Miss—features that once defined travel but have quietly vanished over the years. From complimentary shoe shines and personalized stationery to quirky in-room gadgets, these little details made hotel stays unforgettable. The 20th century was full of unique travel experiences, and many hotels went above and beyond to impress their guests. Today, those touches are rare, replaced by modern conveniences and budget cuts. But for anyone who remembers, 30 FORGOTTEN Hotel Amenities We All Miss will bring back warm memories of simpler, more personal hospitality. Whether it’s the thrill of a coin-operated vibrating bed, the joy of a rooftop dining lounge, or the charm of a real room key with a heavy brass tag, these vanished traditions remind us how different—and special—hotel stays used to be. Join us as we revisit 30 FORGOTTEN Hotel Amenities We All Miss, and see how many you still remember.. 00:00 Intro 00:27 Metal Room Keys with Bulky Fobs 02:47 Ashtrays in Every Room 03:46 Mini Soaps and Shower Cap Packets 06:08 Bulky Plastic Ice Buckets and Hallway Ice Machines 07:06 Wake-Up Calls from the Front Desk 09:18 Printed In-Room Dining Menus 10:27 Hotel-Branded Matchbooks 12:32 Lobby Pay Phones 14:21 Wall-Mounted Hair Dryers 15:26 Hotel Room TVs with Built-in Pay-Per-View Boxes / Coin-Operated TVs 17:16 Grand Piano in the Lobby 18:55 In-Bathroom Telephones 19:37 In-Room Bibles 20:26 Complimentary Slippers and Bathrobes 21:28 Evening Turndown Service 23:04 Live Fish in Some Hotel Rooms 23:57 In-Room Fireplaces 26:28 Manual Guest Registers 27:34 Key Cubbies 28:30 Fully Stocked Minibars #nostalgia #memories #americahistory #lifeinamerica #goldenage #1960s #1970s #1980s Subscribe: youtube.com/channel/UCuJBQl-_LZcFepZ_SFyhXbA COPYRIGHT DISCLAIMER Back to Yesterday does not fully own the material compiled in this video.
