British influencer Carrie Fletcher has voiced her frustration after a security guard from the Hard Rock Hotel in Orlando, Florida, issued a warning to her concerning her baby’s crying. Fletcher, who is known for her work as an actress and social media personality, documented her experience on Instagram, describing the incident as an unwelcome start to her family vacation.
In her post, Carrie shared that her daughter, Mabel, woke up at 03:30, appearing jetlagged and “a bit unwell.” Despite the couple’s attempts to soothe their daughter, they were met with a knock on their hotel room door from security, who handed them a “first warning” due to the noise.
Vacation Turned Unpleasant
Fletcher expressed her disbelief at the situation, stating, “They sent a security guard…a SECURITY GUARD… to knock on our door.” She reflected on the absurdity of receiving a noise complaint for a toddler, questioning what would have happened had her daughter continued to cry. “Second/third warning—what? Removed from the hotel? With a 22-month-old?” she pondered.
Despite the rocky beginning to their holiday, Fletcher noted that Mabel quickly calmed down and went back to sleep. Nevertheless, the experience left her contemplating the hotel’s suitability for families. “Note to self: Despite the teddy bears and kids’ clothes in the gift shop… Hard Rock Hotel, Orlando is not a family resort,” she asserted.
In her stories, Fletcher maintained a light-hearted tone, remarking, “Not very ‘hard rock’ to issue a noise complaint to a toddler.” Although she and her partner, Joel, have not publicly addressed the incident further, they appear to have moved past the initial discomfort, sharing updates from the remainder of their vacation.
Public Reaction
The incident has sparked discussions among followers and the wider public about hotel policies regarding noise complaints, especially when it involves young children. Many have expressed support for Fletcher, while others question the appropriateness of such warnings in family-oriented settings.
The Hard Rock Hotel has not released an official statement regarding the incident. As Fletcher continues to share her family’s experiences on social media, it remains to be seen how this situation will influence perceptions of the hotel among potential guests.
This episode serves as a reminder of the challenges families face while traveling, particularly in environments that may not cater to the needs of young children. The balance between maintaining a pleasant atmosphere for all guests and accommodating families with infants remains a complex issue for hospitality providers.
