The Hotel Rouge on 16th Street has eight statues of Venus outside its entrance. Problem is, there should be nine. The ninth went missing on Wednesday night.

“Her sister Venuses claim to have not seen a thing, leaving investigators with no solid leads,” reads a hotel release. She’s described as about 5 feet, 6 inches, with a voluptuous figure and revealing tunic dress.

The hotel is offering a reward of a weekend stay with spa services for two to anyone who helps return Venus.
