I'm really enjoying this effect. As scripted (or some variation thereof) it's wonderful. I might
recommend (in the future) a deck of "motels" that us "trench magicians" stay at around the country
{Motel 6; Comfort Inn; etc)... To some that "know" you're a magician, the obscure hotels might
scream "Props!" Common motel (or even hotel) names, I think it might make it more readily
acceptable to the layman. The cards and instructions are of the highest quality and very
professional.

Ok, basically it's exactly what I was expecting. It's method is very clever and easy to follow and
you're getting a handful of high quality props. I suggest you find a protective case to hold the
business cards in,obviously so they won't ruin. I love this effect because it has one of the best
reactions that I've ever seen and I highly recommend you buy this now.

I give hotel 5 stars. firstly the effect involves hotel visiting cards that look genuine and not
like props. The other effects on the same lines like directors cut(uses movie poster cards),
Geomagic(cards with city names) , certainly make the audience believe that the cards are designed
for the magic effect, but here you are using normal visiting cards . A lot of hard work has gone
into this by Ludovic Mignon(the inventor) and Richard Cauche{his friend (thats what friends are
for)}.All the possable situations in a performance have been thought of and have been covered. You
always end up with a miracle . This is not only a close up trick. Its a stage illusion .Thanx
Ludovic for this gem .

Wow you get alot of business cards and your going to need a pocket or 2! The quality of the cards
are excellent. A lot of work went into this effect. However I will stick with My "Director's Cut"
for strolling,everybody watches movies, and repeatablity. I just can't see it fitting my style!!

My Friend John Lewis suggested me HOTEL by Ludovic Mignon. First I was not sure that this will suit
my style....But just yesterday I performed this for 10-15 times. I got wonderful reactions.
It's
ANDY LEVISS' Brilliant "It's a Match"
But Ludovic's idea with business cards of Hotels is
awesome.
I'm a stage performer I do 45mins Stand up Comedy Magic & Mind Reading shows for
Carnival Crusie lines in USA....after the show the guest always comes to meet. So I was looking some
fastest effect to blow their Mind offstage. and HOTEL is Best for such situations.
It looks like
normal business cards...ans as a Artist we have to travel and stay in different Hotels so It's
perfect Match. GO GET IT....FAST...NOW !!

I knew exactly what this was going in and bought it because I wanted the props. And they certainly
didn't disappoint. The two decks of hotel business cards are exceptionally well designed and so
useful.
I have quite a few different decks that use the same principles, but I like the
organic nature of Hotel. It's well worth your money.
So this is a really great routine!.. i love all the self-working routines where you only need to add
a good story. Big Recomendation. I use it all the time.
Hotel is a fantastic mentalism trick. The only thing I don't like is how you cannot hand out the
second set of business cards for the spectator to examine for the key card prediction.
The idea and gimmick are extremely thought out and well made. The only problem I have with this
trick is that it's really hard to understand. It involves a lot of practice but later on, trust me.
The reactions are amazing.
