I always turn my alarm clock away from me when I sleep for the same reason.

In my hotel room:

Moisturizer (for my sunburn I swear)
Phone
Alarm Clock
Pen
Pad of Paper
Jar of Drugs (Excedrin, 2 Types of Vitamin, and Ibuprofen)
Placard that informs me of just how fresh the new Hampton Inn and its beds are

I bought a small scrap of leather from the local fabric shop, cut it into the same size and shape as the face of my alarm clock, and taped it on there with Scotch tape.

If I wake up and want to know what time it is, I just have to lift the flap, then drop it to go back to sleep.
