Sophia MurphyHere’s a juicy nugget for you: “Jacuzzi” isn’t the common term for all bubbly soaks aka hot tubs — it’s a trademark owned by Whirlpool. Basically, it’s like calling all tissues “Kleenex” and that’s not something you wanna do as a sophisticated hotel connoisseur!
But let’s be real — haven’t we all slipped up and used “Jacuzzi” when we really meant “hot tub”? Guilty as charged!
I once found myself in a hotel booking debacle, insisting on a Jacuzzi when all they had was a hot tub. Cue the awkward silence matched with the surprised side-eye!
But hey, no need for red-faced moments like mine. Let’s get savvy and scope out which hotels flaunt those Jacuzzis (erm, I mean hot tubs) so you can sidestep the slip-ups and soak like a pro!
