This is truly a piece of history. It is an actual radio ad for the Huletts Hotel from approximately 1956 to 1958. Be sure to listen to it before reading the rest of the post below.

Only read below after listening.
The “gag” of the joke revolves around the fact that the keys for the hotel’s rooms would open more than one door. Our serious guest finds this out unexpectedly but during the last years of the Hotel’s existence this was a known fact. This harkens back to a more innocent time where the “gag” is on the guest who has never stayed in Huletts before. It speaks for itself that this was actually advertised. So we wanted to share a little history and a little fun. What a truly special place Huletts Landing is, where all the doors open with one key and you find friends in every room.
