The Crown Towers hotel, in Sydney Australia, is where Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce chose to crash out as the pop star continues her record-breaking Eras Tour but she might not be the biggest story to come out of it as a guest made a “crazy” discovery in one of the rooms. As he checked out the bedside table, attempting to find a wireless charging cable, a guest discovered a FoodSaver vacuum sealer and digital table scale and quickly took to social media to offer his theory that it’s used in the drugs trade.
“So, I was looking at this [panel] which opens and closes,” he said in a video on TikTok, viewed over 800,000 times. “It’s got lighting controls, and I just leaned on it too much and it opened up “But what else did I notice in here which is a vacuum sealer machine … and as I look further in here, scales. Someone has obviously been packaging up drugs in this room at Crown. “Like, are you serious? They’re using a vacuum sealer machine and scales, what for? I cannot believe this. This is crazy, and this is all happening at Crown Towers in Barangaroo in Sydney.”
Why is it such a scandal?
New South Wales (NSW) Police confirmed that members from Sydney City Police Area Command are investigating the matter, after being called to the room in question at midnight on Wednesday, February 27. The reason that this is unexpected because the hotel chain is a luxury five-star hotel. Swift actually had to pay $25000 per night in her Presidential Villa with her Kansas City Chiefs’ boyfriend and the hotel has wasted no time in responding.
“We have been made aware of a concerning social media video that was recently posted from one of our hotel rooms at Crown Sydney,” a spokesperson for the hotel chain said. “Crown has zero tolerance for illegal or criminal behavior and we have reported the matter to the NSW Police.”
