Default Mayfair hotel tweets Gina...
Saying that they hope she is enjoying her stay with them.

So she was telling the truth then? It's sure looking like it.

After all that wasted speculation lol.

Is tweeting now customary concierge practice? #noprivacy

She may or may not even be there. I suspect it's a promotional gimmick not requiring her presence to garner attention and if she is there, either the Mayfair or BB put her up for what is I'm sure a short-lived visit.

There was a documentary on last week about how companies tweet celebrities for money. Will have to provide more than that to convince me that shes not sat in a council house right now watching midsomer murders

Mayfair Hotel is great at marketing. They are known for their outrageous marketing. Smart to embrace Gina while her fame was up. Bet she isn't paying the bill. The publicity company backing Gina probably worked out a great deal.

She got her Ł2000+ EXPENSES from Endemol! She can afford a couple of nights in the Mayfair and just why would they tweet that to a REGULAR customer??

It's all part of the set up. She obviously has to keep the story going for at least a week or two to throw people off the scent. Then she can disappear back to her council esate once everyone in engrossed in CBB.

She may or may not be there.

Looking at their twitter feed, it seems they're tweeting a similar welcoming message to all of their guests, not just "celebrities". Doubt it's some promotional thing, would the Mayfair Hotel really want to associate themselves with a Big Brother housemate in that way? Very much doubt it.

If the Mayfair Hotel is tweeting its customers, it is a bad breach of privacy...and security.

No it's not. It's he twitter I've used for a while now and I always tweet them to cofirm my booking. I've seen Gina around a few times but she didn't used to have blonde her. She looked very different.

If it really is a kosher account, The Mayfair Hotel need to be stung for all they have got.

Looks like a stock phrase the Mayfair uses to all its customers.

Gina might have just popped into the bar!

I imagine it's an option when you book (updates via text or twitter)



My mistake: just checked the account and the tweets are in response to guests tweeting their stay and using @The Mayfair Hotel

Sounds like she is a recent guest - not an established one.

Seems like the MayFair has an automatic greetings generator when anyone uses that address. Probably works from the Bar as well.
