We've all probably been guilty of taking hotel toiletries, but is telling "porkies" to a hotel acceptable?

Relatives are off on holiday very soon, to a resort where most of the hotels provide a welcome gift, usually fruit and water/wine. Whilst checking location of their rooms, they advised the hotel they would be celebrating their anniversary, which is untrue. Not a good example to set to the children in the party.

I've stayed in the same resort many times and always enjoyed the welcome gift, which extended to a bottle of bubbly when staying as a repeat guest. Even if celebrating a birthday whilst on holiday I don't broadcast it. Perhaps I'm too honest......
