Karen's Diner, an Australian restaurant chain known for deliberately rude staff, has partnered with the Hadley Hotel in Barnet, North London, to launch a unique project called Karen's Hotel. This allowed fans of an unusual vacation in the capital not only to eat in a tense atmosphere, but also to spend the night in a place where they would be humiliated and denied service.

The hotel promises an "absurdly fun experience" where guests will be greeted by "rude hotel staff and waiters" before being taken to a room where they "never know what they will find." This may sound absurd, but it actually brings a lot of fun to guests who are not used to being treated rudely.

Recently, Eddie Hall, a YouTuber and former world's strongest man, stayed at Karen's Hotel with his young son, who did not realize that his father would be humiliated in the hotel.

The staff, with a disgruntled face, offered the guests to bring their suitcases to the room where two more people were waiting for them: in bed and in the toilet.

The guests saw scattered belongings, crumpled bedding, pillowcases stuffed with paper and foam, toilet paper on the TV, and a photo of a star. The staff was rude to the guests, giving them the middle finger, swearing, unceremoniously entering the room and throwing pillows.
