I booked this hotel for two nights and paid in full. A delayed international flight caused me to lose the first night — a non-refundable booking I accepted without question. What followed, however, showed how little empathy the property extends to its guests.
When I arrived the next morning, visibly exhausted from travel, the staff could see from my booking that breakfast was included. Yet instead of acknowledging the situation and offering even a simple meal, I was told that because the official breakfast time was over, nothing could be done — despite having paid for both the night and the breakfast. I had to request repeatedly before they reluctantly brought a plate of bread and eggs — a petty gesture that only highlighted their unwillingness to care.
Later, when it began raining, I asked for an umbrella at reception and was told to “get it from your room,” forcing me to go back upstairs instead of being helped.
None of these incidents are dramatic on their own, but together they reflect a disappointing mindset — one that hides behind policy and forgets the essence of hospitality. A thoughtful hotel would have recognised the situation and extended even a small act of kindness. Here, once they had my money, compassion and initiative disappeared.
Management should take a hard look at whether this is truly the standard they want their brand to represent
