Hotel guests have made bizarre requests to staff, including wanting a spare bed for a child’s imaginary friend, and a room to store 200 butterflies for a wedding.

Travelodge said many of its 575 UK and 10 Irish hotels had received “interesting” calls from guests or those making a booking in recent months.
