Fed-up hotel staff have returned 100 copies to tour operator On The Beach from resorts it uses in Spain, Greece and Turkey.

And with the school ­summer holiday yet to begin for many families, the company is braced for more Harry books.

Zoe Harris, On The Beach chief customer officer, said: “We’ve never witnessed anything quite like it.

“Lost property offices in our most popular resorts are brimming with copies of Spare.

“We thought it was funny at first but, over the past few months, several other hotels have been sending the books back.

"Now, we have bookcases full of them. I’m asking hotels to please stop sending them over, ­otherwise we’ll never get rid of them all.

“Maybe we should all take a leaf out of Harry’s book and spare ourselves the bother in the first place.”

On The Beach is to give away ­hundreds of the discarded copies online.

The memoir sold 3.2million copies in its first week of publication in ­January — and 1.4million on its first day.

In it, the duke, 38, claims he was knocked to the ground in a row with brother William who, he says, had called Harry’s wife Meghan “rude” and “difficult”.

He was also widely mocked for revealing he applied Elizabeth Arden cream to his frostbitten todger.

And the prince wrote that he lost his virginity in an “inglorious” episode with an older woman who “smacked my rump and sent me off to graze”.
