A U.S. hotel chain has decided to offer its guests a spiritual menu, with travelers able to order a Bible, Koran or Book of Mormon among other offerings.

Provenance Hotels, based in Oregon, owns five luxury boutique hotels in Portland, Ore., Seattle, Tacoma, Wash., and Nashville, Tenn.

Guests will no longer find a Bible sitting on the nightstand. Instead, they can get what they want from room service, The Nashville Tennessean reports.

Our guests come from different places and they definitely come from different cultures, backgrounds, ethnicities, so we want everyone to feel welcomed and comfortable, Dina Nishioka, public relations director for the Hotel Preston in Nashville, said.

The available works will include two different translations of the Bible, the King James for traditionalists and the New American, as well as Taoist, Buddhist and Hindu texts and works from Scientology.

Gideons International, the Nashville-based group that has been distributing Bibles in hotels for the past century, had no comment.
