A night porter smashed up the hotel where he worked causing damage of nearly £100,000 as he wanted to "teach the owners a lesson", a court heard.
Edward Woods, 50, broke 21 windows, six doors, two fridges, an oven, a breakfast table and three beer pumps while on duty at the Larkfield Priory hotel in Maidstone, Kent, on July 25 last year.
Hotel owners were left with a £94,000 repair bill following the incident, Maidstone Crown Court was told.
