Find the staff member with the key

In the Slovakia hotel, head toward the rear staff areas and staircase. Use your Q-Lens to spot a staff member (a man in a white shirt near the "Staff Only" door) with a key visible in his pocket.

Distract, then pickpocket

You can only pickpocket him while he's distracted. The reliable method is to hit him with the Dart Phone to make him ill, then take the key while he's occupied. Any distraction or sabotage that pulls his attention also works.

What the Staff Key unlocks

Use it on the Manager's Office door. Inside you'll find the clue for the Laundry Room code (1805) and the Manager's Office safe (1952) — both needed to keep tailing the blond bellhop.
