Head of communications for Premier Inn Claire Haigh said: "We were really surprised at some of the items that our team members uncovered over the last few months.
"It's been a summer of national events and our lost and found certainly had a British theme! The good news is that our teams have worked hard to return a lot of the items that were left behind."
Other items left behind included an Olympic volunteer's uniform, a wedding cake, nun's habit, false teeth, riding crop and nine rubber ducks.
Also forgotten were a pair of tickets for the London 2012 Olympics athletics session including the 100m men's final.
