My room has one power outlet that I don't recognize. It's the only available outlet near the nightstand, where I generally like to plug my phone.  I thought it was a UK style outlet, but my adapter does not fit. On close inspection, it appears to have 3 round holes. The rectangular pins in my adapter won't fit.  It's otherwise the same layout. 

Any idea what this is?

My euro adapters would fit, except it appears to be gated on the ground pin. (Fortunately, none of the _normal_ UK plugs in my room are gated, so I can use the euro adapters in them.)
