I think it's just a matter of time before some legitimate cardiology hospital accidentally adopts this as their logo.

If my state supported UTF-32, I'd name my next kid this.

It looks different on OS X between Safari and Chrome - Safari uses the built in Lucida Grande font to render a full color unicode love hotel, chrome tries to use the black and white symbola font.<p>You actually see a fallback image with the transparent character on top in all other browsers, since there isn't support for unicode characters this high (U+1F3E9). If you highlight and right click on the love hotel character on OS X you'll see "Search google for '🏩'" with the full color love hotel character.

Duck duck go does a great job when you search for the unicode love hotel! <a href="http://cl.ly/3a07430F2i1M1Z1H3u0V" rel="nofollow">http://cl.ly/3a07430F2i1M1Z1H3u0V</a>

A domain dedicated to one Unicode code point!<p>I guess it's only a matter of time before "pile of poo" (U+1F4A9) gets its own domain, too.

So what does it take to make my windows browser show the actual character and not the fallback?

You can remap capslock to &#60;lovehotel&#62; for easy access, if you end up typing it a lot.

Honestly, who decides what characters should be included?
