Here’s Why You Should Keep The Bathroom Light On When Sleeping In A Hotel

Many travelers debate whether to leave the bathroom light on in hotel or motel rooms. However, seasoned travelers and hotel staff often recommend keeping it on—and for good reason.

Leaving the bathroom light on can enhance safety during emergencies like fires or earthquakes by providing visibility to exits. It also helps guests navigate unfamiliar rooms without stumbling or waking others.

For those who feel uneasy in new environments, the soft glow of the bathroom light can ease anxiety and create a comforting atmosphere. It offers enough light to move around safely without being too bright to disturb sleep.

Some guests also find it promotes better sleep, especially compared to overly harsh night lights. Additionally, a lit bathroom can deter intruders by signaling someone is awake inside.

In unfamiliar places, this simple practice helps with orientation, reduces tripping hazards, and provides peace of mind—making your stay more secure and restful.
