Outrageous, But True, Global Guest Requests

While none on the following list have ever come close to the truly reasonable requests that have been made by our Myrtle Beach resort guests, we thought it might be fun to pass along some of the most amusing, if not scary, questions asked of concierges across the world.

5. “Can you arrange for me to be able to ride one of Queen Elizabeth’s horses?” London, England (Didn’t happen.)

4. “Would you please assemble my husband’s surprise birthday present?” It was a full-size golf cart. New York, NY (The hotel staff did!)

3. “Would you please buy a car for my daughter? It’s her birthday. Here’s $30,000.” Chicago, IL (The concierge was able to do it. The daughter was beyond-herself happy.)

2. “I’d really like to lose some weight on this trip. Would you please arrange to have a hypnotist meet me at the hotel? But, first, please have him call a psychic to see if it will even work, first.” Professional Concierge Service (don’t know if the guest lost the weight.)

1. “Would you please find replacement parts for my AK47?” Beverly Hills, CA (NO.)
