A steely stare, shoulders back and an air of complete confidence works every time, but if you look nervous and scuttle in, then yes, the style police may pounce.
When the legendary Mr Wachtveitl finally retires I think you will find that dress codes will relax a tad.
Agree completely. We didn't have any grief about shorts in public areas. I think the staff is discretely tuned in, however, to who is a registered guest and who isn't ... I suspect that if you aren't recognized as someone who is staying there you are more likely to get stopped by security over wardrobe issues.
