Has numerology helped shape hotel layouts?
Numerology is the study of numbers and how they relate to events. Numbers such as 3 and 7 hold biblical significance. Numbers such as 6 and 13 are said to be unlucky. The thirteenth floor is a designation of a level of a multi-level building that is often omitted in countries where the number 13 is considered unlucky. Many hotels do not have thirteenth floors because of the enduring superstition.
