Niall Horan has admitted his frustration at being trapped in hotels whilst on tour.

One Direction regularly tour the globe and their hotels are usually surrounded by excited fans.

This means, however, that the quintet are often stuck inside the building due to security fears.

Speaking to Now, singer Horan admitted that being trapped inside is one of the downsides of touring.

He said: "I can understand that [it can get quite lonely on tour]. It can be quite frustrating being stuck in a hotel.

“I remember in Peru - I got up, went into Louis [Tomlinson's] room and said: ‘Right, what we doing today?’ and he goes: ‘We should go shopping!’ Then we looked out the window. There were 10,000 people on the street outside our hotel."
