What to bring
Check which Nespresso line before you buy
We have confirmed a Nespresso machine in the room but not which line it is. Original and Vertuo capsules are completely incompatible, so buying ahead is a coin flip. The machines are easy to tell apart on arrival: Vertuo takes round, domed capsules and spins them; Original takes the smaller cone-shaped capsules.
- Wait until you see the machine, then buy capsules locally
- If you must pack ahead, bring a small pour-over or instant option as a fallback
Been in this room? Which Nespresso line it is takes one tap to say, and settles this for the next traveller. Tell us which line.
