I haven't been away overseas for years. I was wondering if hotels have somewhere you can safely store valuables and money so I don't have to carry all of my money on me all the time.

The amenities at each hotel we use are different. You may find that some hotels will have a safe in your room, whereas others may have the facility to leave valuables at the hotel reception. When you book a particular holiday with us, we can let you know what facility is available at that particular hotel.

Kindest regards,

Thanks for replying so quickly. I will be staying at the Mijas hotel on the Anda;ucia trip. Do you have any information for this hotel.

Joe

Every room in this hotel has a safe. I understand there is a 3Euro per day charge.

Hi,

Please don't all jump on me 🙂 but personally I would never use a hotel safe, especially the card variety as there is no distinction between the card you are given for your door & the "master" card the cleaners, managers etc have so, technically there would be nothing stopping any of them using that card on your safe; even the numbered codes have an override so that in the event of an "unfortunate incident" (illness, accident etc) staff are able to clear out rooms. So my go to place is in my dirty underwear bag locked inside my suitcase with a coded padlock.... of course now everyone knows where I hide my valuables :rolleyes: but good luck delving into my dirty knick knicks:D

cheers

All the hotel safes I have used and there have been many over the years, most have been the four digit number keypad style to lock it, on the rare occasion it has been a key, not ever had one that's a key card, but thanks for pointing that out.

Unfortunately the underwear bag is not an option for me as I tend to wash my underwear whilst on holiday!!

Overall I think as long as you are sensible there will be no problem. If you don't want to carry around lots of cash - you can now get a prepaid card for your money - or withdraw money from banks (depending on where you go) each day. The world is actually a more safe place these days.

Sure not unusual in a hotel for someone to walk out with a suitcase but very unlikely for staff to do this as would take a lot of explaining as most hotels have CCTV.

On all my trips not yet heard of anyone having a suitcase taken from their room.

Remember the hotel that JY used when i did Austrian Lakes had safes in the rooms and inspecting them thy weren't bolted down, they were small and anybody could have walked off with the safe.
