I don't think I've ever been to a hotel that didn't have an ice dispenser/bucket, but have been to plenty that don't have a fridge. Heck, Motel 6 has ice machines and a stupid plastic bucket.
Yup. I was super surprised when I heard that in Europe, they don't give you ice by default, and they give you seltzer unless you ask specifically for something else.
What hotel is fancy enough to have ice buckets and dispensers but not a fucking fridge?

Weird, I don't think I've ever seen an ice dispenser. Is this a USA thing?
Very likely.. A lot of road trip travel by car, sometimes toting coolers. And Americans like their beverages cold.

Fridge takes hours to cool a drink, but put it in an ice bucket and it'll be cold after you're done pooping.
