Goodbye Bible, Hello Duckie
A hotel in the Bible belt is throwing out the Good Book.
The Hotel Preston is removing Holy Bibles from its Nashville hotel rooms. Instead, guests will be offered a “spiritual menu” — everything from the Koran to Scientology books (cue Tom Cruise).
While the Bible is off the nightstand, hotel rooms come equipped with lava lamps, complimentary pet fish and rubber duckies.
I like rubber duckies.












The boutique hotels are getting crazier by the day with what they offer.
Recently at the Bi-Lo Marathon in Myrtle Beach, the hotel had a Book of Mormon near the Gideon Bible on the nightstand. (I finished my fifth marathon that weekend, despite all I had to endure, and enjoyed it.)
The sad thing is the major chains are running the boutiques, and we don’t know what they will do next to the mainline chains if the success continues.
