I regularly scrub my underarms and gonads properly with hotel soap, and it ends up a hairy mess afterward. Good luck to you chaps using that recycled soap

I'd hate to use the soap after you've used it.
All that goat hair.

Unless someone provides some factual info about hotels recycling soap for their customers I wouldn't worry about it.

What hotels are going to risk customers finding pubes embedded in their soap?

The soap needs to be boiled to be re-"set" in new bars. I can't see a problem with it. The bars you using all this time is prob re-cycled already. Same as with your beer cans, coke bottles and so on

Look. Its not all hotels and is just something I heard that they wanted to do and are being done at some places.

Google for more facts, be resourceful

Thanks - I've added this link to my earlier post.

I think people have missed the point here.
The soap is not sold back to the hotels or recycled for reuse in hotels.
It is recycled and distributed amongst the poor.

No, I only use shower gel. Nothing less...

Watch Gordon Ramsey's Hotel Hell and you'll find some dodge practices.

I do a lot of business travelling during the year, easily spending 15-20 weeks in hotels (4-5 stars only), and can tell you that I wouldn't be surprised if the established hotels do it. Some hotels have significant overheads.

Things I do:
-Take my own toiletries (shower gel and shampoo)
-Request the bedding to be changed right after check-in (don't go for an early check-in, they tend to rush the cleaning staff and your suite might not get adequately cleaned)
-If the room comes with a tea/coffee facility, change the water in the kettle, boil the hell out of it, use the boiled water to wash/rinse out the cups, glasses and teaspoons
-Depending on the state of the shower and your familiarity with cleaning staff (more about the sanitising products they use), shower either with slops on or put the shower on hot and full blast it for a 5 minutes
-Clean the toilet seat before you take a sit down (consider it a public rest room)
-Always lock valuables in the safe
-Always be courteous/friendly to the hotel staff (they tend to give you much better service), especially if you are going to be a bit demanding

Sounds pedantic, but rather be safe than sitting with a stomach bug, foot fungus, stolen property or a general unpleasant stay whilst on holiday or business.
