TX2: Grand Hotel

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.thief-dark-project (More info?)

Well, I think I've been everywhere but I can't work out how to get in to the
basement. You know, the door with no handle. In fact, I'm sure I found two
lots of stairs down in to the basement but now I can only find one.

Anyway, all hints appreciated...!

Ummm... you need a key.

I'll be damed if I can remember where you get it from though.

Ah, well I've just found myself back at part of the hotel I'd stopped, and
thus not finished, exploring earlier (I ran in front of a hidden big robot
and had to run for my life!)

You get the key from the manager's office. I can't quite remember how to get
in there but I know to begin with you have to get a key from a guard who is
patrolling in a room just off the hallway with a large Karras statue. I
think that opens the vault and the managers key might be in there. Something
like that anyway.

The key to the basement is in the general managers office (next to the
hotel safe room with the heavy security outside), but you should get the
blackmail note from the accounting office upstairs before confronting
him to make life easier.

If I remember rightly I got the security key from the guard officer
upstairs by the Karras statue, went back downstairs and disabled the
lobby security (small room near the restaurant), and took the key from
the board lobby desk to get into the accounting office at the top of the
building.

The great thing about pessimism is that you are either 'right as usual' or 'pleasantly surprised'.

Ah, but how do I get in there? The door is locked and I can't find a key for
it anywhere...!

Check the lobby where the two camera-alarm faces are.

Seems some small items in the game have a narrower
latitude to highlight on than T2.

As Mos says,. I'm sure there is a 'spare' in the lobby and a note about
it elsewhere, something to do with the manager 'losing' his often.

Once you have read most of the notes the clues are there

I got so frustrated with that door, so I ended up bashing it down. Found the
key later on though
