It was hidden behind a solid part of the desk and obfuscated by a nest of other panels, messy cut coax cable ends, etc. The jack was also covered by a sliding cover plate (which is pretty common around here). Finally, I was fooled for some time by a decoy jack that had the hotel Ethernet wire plugged into it. The decoy was dead, the hidden jack worked.

There should've been, shouldn't there? But no. I found the tasty Internet goodness within to be sufficient recompense. And at least it wasn't in an unlit cellar with no stairs in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet in a disused lavatory with a sign on it saying "beware of the leopard".
