Indeed, some hotels / chains do create personal files containing all sorts of information ranging from family status, # of children, profession etc. to more obvious things such as preferred drinks, allergies, meals eaten etc.

A while ago I stayed a hotel where the staff asked me how my activity was which I had booked when staying at another hotel (same chain) - which I found both amusing and mildly irritating.
