DH and I were in The Wisconsin Dells for the last few days. It's an annual trip for us. We have stayed at the local Hampton Inn several times and like it. Until this year, they have always provided the usual small wrapped bars of soap and the mini bottles of shampoo, conditioner, lotion, and mouthwash.  This year, mounted on the wall by the sink was a large bottle of Gilchrist & Soames Naturally Kind Zero% liquid hand soap and one of their hand & body lotion.  In the shower, also mounted on the wall, were bottles of their body wash, shampoo, and conditioner.  I'd never heard of this brand before, had to look it up.  I used my own shampoo & conditioner, but the body wash, hand soap, and lotion were very nice.  The zero % refers to none of the ingredient bugaboos - sulfates, parabens, phthalates, artificial colors, and zero animal testing.

I've seen Gilchrist & Soames products in hotels for many years. They're a British company that sells mostly to hotels. Because I like their products so much I started buying some things from their web site. I especially like their English Spa Hand & Body Lotion. 

Seems like the shampoo, lotion, etc. one finds in hotels these days is often kinda crummy (at least in the hotels where I stay ) but I love G&S products.

I've seen Gilchrist & Soames toiletries in hotels for many years, back to the 1990's at least.

At one time their shampoo and conditiiner was very popular right here on these beauty boards.

A future possibility for me to try.

I was thinking the same, @TerryNJ.  It'll be awhile but maybe someday.
