Cambridge Hotel in the Surry Hills wins our newly-invented Best Customer Service Ever award after fulfilling a ridiculous, tongue-in-cheek request made by a customer.

Cameron Oppy booked a room at the hotel online, and wrote in the ‘Guest Comments’ section: “My girlfriend really loves Dwayne Johnson and it’s a special night on the night we are staying. If possible could you please print out a photo of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and put it on one of the beds for her. It would really make her night :)”

When they arrived in the room, the following gem was not only printed out, but framed and placed lovingly on the bed.

Not only that, but will you check the pic they chose, too? It certainly screams ‘romance’.

“I always thought it would be funny to push customer service to the limits and try to entertain them,” Oppy explained to us, “as I’m in customer service myself and understand how much of a drag it can be.

So when I saw customer comments I figured I’d try to give them a laugh and embarrass my girlfriend, as I always do! So I requested there be a photo of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnston be placed on one of the beds for my girlfriends and my special night.

“Not only did they provide a sexy photo, they framed it, posted it on their social media and then replied to my Instagram post saying how much fun they had. Test your hotels, have some fun.”

Sound advice for anyone planning a weekend away in the near future. Our advice is to ask for a ‘Space Jam’ poster to be hung over the bed.
