At Ireland's Adare Manor Hotel everyone is treated like royalty, even if you're a stuffed bunny.

After a little girl's stuffed animal was accidentally left behind at the hotel this past weekend, staff reached out to the public via its official Facebook account, posting a photo of the unclaimed bunny.

"We got such a huge response that we thought we'd show the bunny's journey and what his stay would be like," hotel spokeswoman Sarah Ormston told ABC News.

Perhaps inspired by similar and equally adorable stuffed animal journeys at Toronto Pearson Airport and Tampa International Airport last year, the hotel staff photographed the unnamed bunny throughout the hotel. Each image was accompanied by a caption indicating the lost bunny was having more and more fun along the way.

The bunny's visit at the Adare Manor Hotel kicked off with Sunday morning breakfast and concluded with a relaxing massage.

The unplanned weekend stay culminated when the bunny was reunited with its owner Monday morning.

"They were so delighted," Ormston told ABC News. "Her mom said Kate was sad being away from her bunny because she sleeps with it every night, but when she saw how much fun the bunny was having she couldn't wait to see him again."

By Monday night, the newest Internet celebrity was back home.
