Former Knightrider and Baywatch star David Hasslehoff has been in trouble recently at top London hotel, the St Martin's Lane Hotel. He is rumoured to have gone on a wild drinking bender following Simon Cowell's birthday party, eventually annoying hotel staff so much that they ended up locking him in the hotel basement. But Hasselhoff lashed out and is said to have accidentally struck the physician - Dr Paul Ettlinger - in the eye. Staff then manhandled him to the basement of the St Martins Lane Hotel while the doctor called an ambulance.
Sanctum Soho Hotel in London has become the latest hospitality business to abandon service charges on customer bills following the introduction of new tips legislation. Owner Mark Fuller, who opened the hotel in the heart of London Soho earlier this year, said he was banning the 12.5 per cent service charge at the hotel and its No.20 restaurant to make bills more transparent for customers and give them the option to pay what they wanted to reward good service.
