I personally find that sort of treatment kinda irritating. Perhaps I am just too English about it, but please mind their own business. Even the guy handling your shoes knows about what you are doing with your day? Your total itinerary that someone else planned for you? No thank you.
What if actually I just wanted to do my own thing and the shoe guy got it wrong? Now everyone is embarrassed while they go get your tatty shoes and cancel restaurant reservations because you just wanted to go to Starbucks and do some email today.
If I had asked for those things then 110% yes, I love that decent service. But if it is all assumption...? then please leave me alone and don't think you know what I want. Kthx bai
- neom 5y agoFrom what he wrote, it sounds like he discussed his plans for the day with the breakfast butler, and they were able to infer based on his discussed plans what he would need (including a map with the route that they talked about marked). I also don't like to be bothered, but that would be fine enough by me.

For what it's worth, I've stopped at B&Bs in Peak District (England) where you tell them which tor you wish to hike and you're provided with a map and packed lunch.
