Favorite hotel bathroom products--soaps/shampoos/conditioner/lotion

One my favorite parts of traveling and staying at a new hotel is seeing what types of bathroom products they have (soaps/shampoos/conditioner/lotion/etc).

What are your favorite bathrooms products provided by hotels?

I'd been quite keen on the Aveda products with their Mint/Rosemary shampoo and bar soap provided at some Kimpton Properties--though many of the properties that had used them previously have switched to other brands.

Lately Fairfield Inn/Residence Inn seems to have switched their bar soap from a generic to Paul Mitchell branded Lemon Citrus which I have been enjoying.

Bulgari wins hands down. Not often seen, but last had at Locanda Palazzone in Orvieto. Otherwise Aesop.

Anything that comes in its own bottle and isn't bolted to the wall.

Bulgari is my favorite. Most I won’t bother to even take home.

Oh..I haven't seen Aesop at a hotel yet. I have bottles to use while in a Bed and Breakfast that I liked. Where have you seen Aesop products out?

I loved the cinnamon scented stuff that they used to have at holiday inn express (I’d tip housekeepers extra to get more bottles). Sadly, they’ve replaced it with something boring so I no longer have a reason to stay there.

A few years ago, Hotel Heritage in Bruges had the entire suite of Hermes Eau d'Orange Verte in amenity size.
And they kept on restocking them after I stashed them in my luggage

The Grand American in Salt Lake City had the most wonderful toiletries--Antica Farmacista's grapefruit scent in shampoo, conditioner, bath gel and lotion. And Ritz-Carlton's Asprey Purple Water is nice--citrus and ginger, I think.

I'd love to go back to the Grand American again. One of the nicest (and biggest) hotel rooms I've ever stayed in. As in, at first I thought I'd been given a VIP suite by mistake :-)

The Mondrian in London has MALIN+GOETZ. I'm in love with the stuff, especially the tingly shampoo, and was going to buy some until I saw the retail prices. Really nice stuff.

For those of us with a beer budget, Trader Joe's sells a tea tree shampoo that comes close, but it isn't the same.

I've received that brand in DL lounge showers, some Design Hotels (SPG), and also IIRC some LMs and LCs (SPG).
