Hotel hellraisers caught on video

A group of unruly teens are facing thousands in damages after recording themselves trashing an upmarket hotel room in Sydney.

Video of the trashing emerged on Facebook and Snapchat, and was quickly picked up by Australian media.

In the clips, the youths can be seen smashing light fittings and crashing through doors at the Meriton in Zetland, central Sydney.

Meriton told Channel 7 the damage was "significant", but couldn't yet put a dollar figure on it. The tenants paid a AU$1500 bond, which is unlikely to cover the damage.
