Read before you book at Le Concorde.
My family came from overseas to visit Canada and I have always wanted to returned to Le Concorde, which I had previously visited with my husband. I was especially interested to return to the amazing restaurant on the 28th floor. Therefore I booked one night for 6 of us, and we checked in on Oct 10 evening around 9pm.
My uncle gave his ice pack which he needs for his insulin to a gentleman at front desk around 1030pm. He asked for it to please be put into the freezer he will pick up next morning at check-out. The attendent took the ice pack and agreed to do so.
The next morning my uncle and myself came down to the front desk.
First, the girl at check out greets "Bonjour" but no eye contact or smile. Below is our conversation, her name is Rluisa, I will use R.
R: Bonjour.
Me: Bonjour, we would like to check-out.
Uncle: And can you please give me the ice pack I gave to the front desk last night. It should be in the freezer.
R: We don't have freezer here.
Uncle: But I gave it to the guy around 1030 last night, and he took it. So maybe it is in the kitchen?
R went in to the office behind the front desk, and after 5 seconds, she came back.
R: We don't have any freezer here.
Uncle: Can you ask him where did he put it?
R: We don't have any freezer, it's not here.
Me: Do you have any notes from last night's shift, mentioning the ice pack?
R: No, we don't have it. You can get the ice from 2nd, 4th ... floor.
Me: The ice pack is very important for us because for medical needs. Because my uncle has diabetes so he needs the ice pack.
Uncle: Can you please check again, maybe in the kitchen?
R went back again, 2 minutes. She came back with the ice pack. But the ice pack is room temperature wasn't in the freezer. She handed over without saying anything.
Ok, I AM MAD!!!
Me: It wasn't in the freezer?
R: Maybe you didn't tell last night it's for medical.
Me: What? What will you do when you have customer's ice pack?
She was silent.
Me: Ok, Please give me the name who was on duty last night.
R: There are two of them, which one?
Me: Please give me all their names.
R: Hamza and Jamal.
Me: And your name please.
R: Rluisa.
Me: And manager.
R: Aymem. Do you want to speak with manager?
Me: Yes, please.
She went back in the office again, and came back in a minute. He is on the phone.
Me: Ok, that's fine, I'm here to enjoy old Quebec city with family. Not spend my time waiting for the manager to discuss poor service. I will post on social media, because I don't want any one to experience this ever again.
Also, we booked 3 rooms, 2 of the bathrooms faucets are missing; we have to use face cloth to get enough leverage to use them. Your hotel is one of the landmarks in Quebec City and I'm sad is not getting good care and professional training.
