COURTNEY LOVE BANNED IN LONDON HOTEL

Courtney Love has been banned from London's Claridge's Hotel.The former Hole singer, who started a fire in a £1,630-per-night suite on her last visit, was refused a room when she contacted the exclusive Mayfair hotel.A source told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "Courtney is desperate to stay in Claridge's again, but when her people tried to get her a suite it was a no go.Even the best known fixers in the business can't get her in there."When Courtney's name was mentioned they were told it was fully booked. But when her people rang up again requesting the same dates under a different name they were told there were a number of suites available."Courtney, 43, was smoking a cigarette in her Claridge's suite when the fire broke out on her last visit. The room had to be redecorated and a fire marshal was stationed outside her suite for the remainder of her stay.This isn't the first time Courtney has upset staff at a five-star London hotel. In July, the rocker celebrated her 43rd birthday by reportedly getting drunk and "wildly" wrecking her £495-a-night Covent Garden Hotel suite. A source said: "Staff said the room was left in a right state - like a wild animal had been let loose in there."She had used the place as an ashtray with butts strewn about and burn marks all over the bed, carpet and upholstery. I feel sorry for whoever had to clear it up."A spokeswoman for Claridge's declined to comment on reports Courtney is not welcome at the hotel.Courtney's spokesman said: "Sorry, I don't know anything about it."
