Paying fines in hotels

RestlessNatives · 11th July 2011, 02:37 PM

Lad at work is in a Brass Band and was playing at the Big Meet in Durham at the weekend. This lad doesn't drink and is very quiet and I doubt his bandmates are exactly party animals.
He claims they were fined by the hotel for 'being rowdy'. The explanation being that they would have to pay compensation to the other guests.
I think they've been done by the hotel, is this common practice?

Ive had many a rowdy night in a hotel and have never been charged, nor have I ever heard of anyone else being done.

Which hotel and where?

To be fair if they were in brass band they were probably playing their umpa lumpas or whatever they are called at 2 in the morning.

No - but he deserves the fine for playing in a brass band
