Stealing items from hotel rooms – while not completely unheard of – is, generally, frowned upon. But one luxury hotel in Melbourne has flipped the script, by creating a limited time promotion that actually encourages guests to steal from its rooms. 

The Prince Hotel in Melbourne’s St Kilda has this week launched Steal The Suite, a new offer that gives the thumbs up to thieving guests.

The hotel has decked out its rooms with over $2,000 worth of extras for guests to swipe, and it’s not your average ‘pack of artisan biscuits and a sample-sized shampoo’ kind of loot either, it’s bonafide swag worthy of a YouTube haul video.

The steal-worthy new additions from coveted Australian brands include high end robes and linen, luxury toiletries, swanky towels, designer vases and must-have mini bar items.

Each Steal The Suite room includes: 

• Cultiver robes, tote and linen sheet set 
• Grown Alchemist toiletries 
• Marloe Marloe ceramic vases
• Hommey cushions and towels 
• Selection of wines from Mitchelton Wine
• Open mini bar filled with charcuterie from Little Prince Wine

“We have seen some guests go to extraordinary lengths to smuggle items out of their hotel  room, so we decided to expose this guilty pleasure and let guests steal items that are truly worth it,” said Hotel Manager, Ben Chan. 

The Steal The Suite offer runs until Tuesday May 31 and is priced at $999 per night. Bookings can be made online at  www.theprince.com.au
