(Note that North American three-pronged plugs, as well as two-pronged polarized plugs with one larger prong will both *need an adaptor, as will plugs from other parts of the world.) The official hotels do not have adaptors to adjust to your electricity devices. We strongly urge that you bring your own adaptor and transformer.
