Hotel bedroom slippers

Many years ago we stayed at the Pera Palace Hotel (of Murder on the Orient Express fame). There were bath robes that would have drowned a six footer and the bath had sides that were so high HymnsElf had to lift me in and out. No slippers though.

I would assume anything washable will be done along with the hotel laundry.

I recently bought a nice big cotton towelling dressing gown and the company also sold the famous "hotel" slippers...I think they were about £1.50 a pair..I bought some because as a person who finds drying feet difficult due to arthritis...they are really useful...out of the shower, on with the slippers and feet dry themselves!

Just stayed somewhere that provided dressing gowns and slippers. The dressing gowns were obviously washed and re-used; we could buy them from reception if we wanted to. The slippers were new in a pack, surely not recyclable so we brought them home.

They are disposable. I occasionally bring a pair home..very handy for any visitors staying.

I'd have thought those flimsy slippers wouldn't survive a wash in the machine!

I brought them home but they will probably end up in the bin! Now, how to recycle them?
