First and foremost, I love flowers! However, please refrain from bestowing me with flowers. Giving flowers is such a lovely gesture; I hesitate even mentioning it. Still, in my opinion, it lacks discretion and screams liaison!

You're visiting, with a lady, at her hotel. You walk through the lobby, with flowers, pop onto the elevator and head to floor 8...like others before you. How do you think the hotel staff interpret gentlemen walking through, with bouquets of flowers, all going to floor 8?. Then, the charming and discrete Ms. Bouvier, on the 8th floor, goes to check out, with 2 to 5 - dozen flowers, with vases. Capiche? What am I to do? Shall I risk it and ask the bellman to assist me? If touring, I can't take it on the plane. Leaving them in the room, confirms any previously raised eyebrows. What would you do? Me? Glad you asked. Late at night, I secretly dispose of them, via stairs, to the other floor garbage receptacle. *Sorry, they were beautiful!*

A lady comes to visit you, at your hotel. I would pull into valet, dressed to kill. Upon stepping out of my automobile, the staff automatically rushes over to assist me, watching my every move. I walk through your upscale hotel, looking like a stunning and successful attorney. I'm in the hotel for 1 or 2 hours (average for most ladies), doing "business." Prior to departing your room, I have attempted to pull myself together and straighten my attire...while fussing with my unmanageable hair with one hand and carrying flowers in the other. I'll guarantee, valet is saying, "That must've been a great business transaction!"

There are some circumstances, that it is okay to bring flowers. Perhaps, to a private residence/apartment. Even then, I would be concerned about nosy neighbors. I've viewed numerous profiles/websites and it's not odd to see flowers mentioned, as a gift option. If you're working out of a hotel, have you considered that flowers could bring undesired attention to you?  

You might enjoy this true story:

I had a date set up with a very nice gentleman, while touring. He requested a bed-time rendezvous, desiring to tuck me in for the night.  Sounds dreamy, right? Think again. Before my eyes, stood a man, with the attire mirroring a pimp. Vizualize one of those flashy teal suits from the disco days, with freshly shined white loafers and a white top hat. Why, what is he carrying? A dozen roses in one hand and body lotion in the other. Oh my! Come in....! After a moment, I ask, "where did you get that lotion?" He responds, " I stopped at the front desk and asked for massage oil....all they had was this spare lotion." "WHAT!" I was livid....absolutely furious, inside. On the outside, I shined like a star on Christmas Day. On the inside, I wanted to say WTF were you thinking!

Always a pleasure,
Paris Bouvier

you are paranoyed or if in USA things really are that difficult...

God bless London!

1. You are very correct about the flowers. That is a mistake I made once, while a newbie to this.
Now I give out vibrators and Hitachi Magic Wands. Easily concealable....and it's the gift that keeps on giving.

2. Did the guy in your story happen to mention where he picked up that dazzling ensemble? I'm thinking that would be snazzy attire for the next M&G.

Just sayin'

And yes things in the USA are very difficult.  We have to screen our butts off!! Being in Europe you guys don't have these issues...we do!!!

Makenzie

LOL

You would be even a hotter dude than ever...Oh come on now...I dare you!!!

I am sure Bob will reconsider his initial thought to telling you not to think about it..

i recently visited a gentleman at his hotel for an evening rendezvous.  although we'd not yet met, we'd learned enough about one another to know we're both romantics at heart.  he'd expressed a desire for a steamy seduction scenario, with a twist of long-lost lovers as an undercurrent.

we met in the hotel bar for a drink, enjoying it and each other's company on the outdoor veranda in the moonlight.  we eventually strolled slowly back to his room where i closed my eyes and was led across the threshold to find...a beautiful sanctuary lit only by dozens of tiny tealight candles!  the bed was strewn with long-stemmed red roses.  more of the gorgeous blooms awaited me throughout the room and the adjoining luxury bath.  WOW...pretty heady stuff indeed!!!  it was a beautiful romantic fantasy come to life, and when i departed much, much later in the wee hours of the morning, i proudly carried my roses Miss America-style as i sailed through the lobby of the hotel.

it was utterly delicious!

We have concerns, that you are fortunate enough not to be burdened with. If you do or ever tour in the USA, please do keep my post in mind.

You never once mentioned how nice the simple gesture was .........But explaining how you would throw the "gesture" down the stairs.
Glass half full - leave a note with them for the $8 an hour cleaning girl - "sweetie I hope they bring you joy as your hard work made my stay a plesant one !"
Glass half full - When you check out give them to any female behind the counter - " I bought these this morning to show appreciation to your efforts that made my stay here so enjoyable "
Glass half empty - throw them down the stairs !
Notice how you gave us un needed details and complained about a paying customers clothes - My customers can wear overalls and chew tobacco for all I care , they chose to buisness with me and for that I am blessed .
Life must be difficult when the glass is ALWAYS "half empty".
Gentleman read these posts and when they see a "thankless bitch" it reminds us of past girlfriends and current wives. Kinda leaves the impression on me that I am doing you a favor by choosing you.
Note to those that see Paris ..........Don't put the money in an envelope - she will bitch that she had to tear the paper to get the money that she so rightfully deserves ! Dont put it in a nice thoughtful card as it won't be color cordinated to her outfit.
Glass and Life view half full - chick cooks me a meal , so thankful for the thought and effort, I could care less if its a burnt turd, she thought of me and put forth and effort.
Man cooks Paris a perfect Lobster dinner - Damn fork is on the wrong side of the table ! Napkins don't match tablecloth ! Red wine instead of white - Idiot ! Butter not on the table ! Black pepper and no white pepper - BASTARD ! Table salt and not rock salt or BOTH - What an Idiot ! He did not remove my plate and refill my wine glass with that crappy white wine ! What no dessert ?

What a pretentious, self centered little princess bitch !!!
