Various Hotel SWAG

Filed under: Hotel SWAG — Laura Moncur @ 5:00 am

These are from the pile of hotel SWAG that I have collected over the last couple of years. I photographed them at home, not at the hotel.

Asira SWAG from Flickr

We got these at the Town Lake Raddison Hotel in Austin, Texas while we were at SXSW in March 2007. They are labeled with the brand ASiRA, and if you like them, you can buy more from their website here: ASiRA Body Care

Ramada Inn SWAG from Flickr

Our last stay at Ramada Inn was not pleasant, so I have no good feelings about the SWAG. Isn’t that strange?

Casablanca Soap from Flickr

The only piece of SWAG remaining from The Casablanca Hotel and Casino in Mesquite, Nevada.

Sahara Hotel SWAG from Flickr

I know there was more, but this was all I could find from The Sahara Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Howard Johnson SWAG from Flickr

I don’t remember ever staying at a Howard Johnson. COOL SWAG, though.

Fairfield Inn Soap from Flickr

This guy is OLD. I have no recollection of staying at Fairfield Inn, so it must be at least two years old.

Hilton Hotel SWAG from Flickr

I like the design of the Hilton SWAG, but it’s hard to get the stuff out of those bottles. Pretty, but not very useful. These are from the Las Vegas Hilton in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Excalibur Soap from FlickrThis soap is from the Excalibur Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. I know they gave us more SWAG than just the soap, but all that was left was this.

I enjoyed going through the pile of SWAG. There is a certain joy in bottles and bars of soap that are the wrong size. When I was a child, I used to think that the small soaps and shampoos that my grandpa brought home from his business trips were for me because they were small. While I was looking through the pile, I found some of the items that I had photographed in the hotel. Tune in on Monday for Hotel SWAG for those photographs!
