Turndown service at a hotel

lot of the places I stay at for work just do it, part of their service, sometimes the turn down girl stays in the bed and waits for me

I want to meet someone that stays at a 5 star hotel and calls the front desk to send someone up to pull the sheets down for them.

You won't because it's something they just do.

Pay 4 or 5 star prices, get 4 and 5 star service.

In my experience, I'm never in the room when they do it. And if I am, I'll answer the door and they'll often just offer me snugglies like chocolate, towels, blankies, robes, etc. They don't barge in past you and force you to get into bed and be tucked in

Have any of y'all ever used this service?

I expect it, among other things...

Just absurd!

Luxury is absurd in its most basic form. It is not that you need someone to do for you, but derived from the days where servants where plentiful and those who employed them basically did nothing for themselves.

ETA: I like being pampered like this from time to time. If I have worked hard to pay for such things, why shouldn't I pay for services that I enjoy? Same goes for spa services, shoe shines, haircuts, restaurants. Don't know why this concept is shocking to people.

I am sure you can turn down the service.

Stayed at the Sofitel in DC and it was done always while I was out. Lights were set low, classical musical put on, and the sheets turned. They didn't leave candy but left a bottle of water which is just fine for me.
