When hotels are using big pump bottles or dispenser, it is really no way to tell if it is good quality or if they are still what they are susposed to use in that hotel chain, unless the brand of toiletries also make a larger size like Molton Brown. I had stayed at the Hilton YVR, all hilton is supposed to use Crabtree & Evelyn La Source, that particular Hilton has dispenser for all shampoo, conditioner, and bodywash. Sure the stuff is still blue like what La Source, but the smell is totally different, I can tell it is NOT crabtree & evelyn right away.
