Famous hotel is a real poop location

Grand Hotel Pupp in the Czech republic has the kind of name that doesn't amuse the locals, but when pronounced correctly (poop), many foreigners will probably giggle like little kids. The hotel may look familiar, as it has been featured in many major movie productions, including Casino Royale with James Bond.And yes, I'd say that laughing about the "poop hotel" is perfectly ok, no matter how old you are.(Creative Commons/Commercial, Flickr user Jim Linwood) 28/05/09
