Nope. I use the shampoo but why would I want to nick a tiny bottle? I have pens. They do them in my local corner shop. Quite cheap as well.

Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob................the pens/pencils in hotels generally have their name and usually phone number on them.

Think it through, that serves no purpose if they remain in the hotel.


Take them with you and, voila, free advertising for the hotel after you've left.

The Mere Court , for example, has 'this pencil was stolen from the Mere Court Hotel' printed on the same.

The mal maison leave a card in there bathrooms telling you to take the toiletries with you as, 'they're yours'

BimboBob, ruining the hotel business since 2013;.)

Fuck 'em. Using me as an advertising board free of charge with their tiny bottles of shampoo when I have no fucking hair.

Evil exploitative bastards. You do have shoes though, have it away with the complimentary shoe wipe. That'll teach'em.

I send them down for that. Shoe wipe, pfft, in 5+* hotels...like I'm going to clean them myself.

Never, although it does remind me of that episode of Friends, ha.
Reminds me of Red Dwarf, can't find the video but it's a classic Dwarf scene:

LISTER: What's a mind-probe?
KRYTEN: The computer was merely searching our minds -- presumably for any
evidence of criminal activity.
LISTER: Whu-what d'you mean, "criminal activity?"
KRYTEN: I shouldn't worry, sir. It's just a routine clearance procedure.
LISTER: So when you say "criminal activity," whu-whu-what exactly do you
mean by "criminal activity?" How criminal do you mean by "criminal?"
RIMMER: What are you bleating on about, Lister?
LISTER: Just define "criminal activity" for me.
KRYTEN: Well, imagine a situation where someone had commited a crime and
concealed it from the law, the mind-probe would be able to uncover that
crime and sentence the person accordingly.
LISTER: Why didn't nobody tell me about this before we put the smegging
boots on?
RIMMER: Oh, Listy, Listy. Is that a small sewage plant you're carrying
in your trousers, or do I detect you're a tad concerned?
LISTER: Well, come on, guys -- everyone has done something in their past
that's a little bit illegal.
RIMMER: I haven't. I've never so much as got a parking fine.
LISTER: Yeah, but most people...I mean, everyone I knew...Aw, smeggin'
hell.
CAT: So what did you do?
LISTER: Well, I mean, like scrumping. I mean, when I was a kid, back in
Liverpool, we all used to go scrumping.
KRYTEN: Stealing apples? That's hardly a crime.
LISTER: Yeah, but me and me mates -- we went scrumping for cars.

RIMMER: Did you get caught?
LISTER: All the time. I was stupid.
KRYTEN: Well, that's no problem then. You've served your punishment.
LISTER: Yeah, but there was other stuff as a kid. Stuff I didn't get
caught for.
RIMMER: Like what?
LISTER: There was one time at this hotel...
KRYTEN: Oh, lots of people take towels from hotels.
LISTER: I took the bed. Winched it out of the window to my mate outside.
I was renting this flat. It was unfurnished.
RIMMER: So you went to a hotel and stole the bed?
LISTER: I stole the entire room, actually. Armchair, dressing-table,
carpet. Even the fitted wardrobe. The only thing I didn't take were
the towels.
I'm not proud of it.
RIMMER: Absolutely despicable. You are a common thief.
LISTER: I'm not making excuses, but everyone was doing it. I wasn't
strong enough to go against the flow.
CAT: Well, I wouldn't like to be in your boots right now, buddy.
LISTER: What's going to happen to me?
KRYTEN: I wouldn't worry anout it, sir. I'm sure they're not interested
in a minor misdemeanour you committed as an adolescent over three
million years ago.
LISTER: Seriously, Kryten: you reckon?
KRYTEN: (Brightens) Boy, I'm really getting the hang of this "lie mode."
That was totally convincing, wasn't it?
 
Not exactly nicked but I found a remote control on my bedroom floor, I had no idea were it came from or what it was for, so as you do with remotes I just stuck it in a drawer.
Went back to birmingham for a weekend with mates and in the same hotel as the one we used on our last trip there.
The remote mystery was solved.

A mate of mine carefully removed a tile from around the bathroom sink in a plush hotel in london as it was a perfect match for a broken one in his house that he couldn't find a replacement for.
He did say when he took it out of his bag on the way home that he'd like to bet that nobody had ever nicked a tile before.
 
Once stayed at butlins with the wife an kids and there was a storage cupboard in our chalet. Which someone had forgot to lock. When I got back home I made the kids beds up with the bnwt bedding sets that I'd pilfered. The mrs weren't happy when I shouted "its butlins beds again tonight guys!"
