Sorry to veer off topic, but if you glance at housekeeping's cart in the hallway, you should see they have a collection of clean glasses and dirty glasses. Using the cart, dirty glasses are brought to a dish washer downstairs and replaced with fresh ones.
If you don't see the glasses on the cart, then you have reason to be suspicious. I suppose you may not trust the dishwasher downstairs, but at that point, you might as well not trust a glass's cleanliness at a restaurant.
I agree that drinking out of a plastic cup at a luxury hotel would feel odd.
