When you're a member of the most influential royal family in the world, you'll probably never be on the receiving end of a "no" ever, or at least that's the notion.

A French hotel, Le Hotel Marotte proved this wrong after turning down non other than British royals - Prince William, Kate Middleton and Prince Harry.

According to local paper, Courier Picard, the manager of the property, Olivier Walti said the French Foreign Ministry contacted them (the hotel) in January about booking suites for the famous threesome’s trip to the area this summer, but couldn't accommodate them despite the six-month notice.

Walti reportedly said:

"We had to decline the offer. It is impossible. We are already booked solid. We would not tell people who have booked with us for months and who have already paid for their stay, sorry, but the royal family is coming, we will have to cancel. It’s just unthinkable ethically.”

The royal couple, Prince Harry and other dignitaries are scheduled to be in Somme from June 30 and July 1 to commemorate those who died in the 1916 battle.

Being the only luxury property situated close to the battlefields and featuring contemporary furnishing, Le Hotel Marotte would have been the ideal place for the royal trio's stay.

However, now that they've been turned away, they'll have to find somewhere else. Who'd have thunk?
