A Deeply Disappointing Experience - Not Even Close to 5-Star Hospitality
I stayed at The Park, Delhi for just one night, and the experience has left me genuinely frustrated. For a hotel that markets itself as a 5-star property, the gaps in basic service are astonishing.
I had clearly informed the team at check-in that I would require an itemised bill. Despite that, the envelope handed to me at checkout did not contain it. I didn’t open it immediately because I trusted the hotel to follow through, a trust that, in hindsight, was misplaced.
Trying to reach the hotel afterward has been even more frustrating. The number listed on the website simply doesn’t work. The IVR goes in circles (16 times to be precise), offers multiple options, and none lead to an actual person. When I did manage to get through, the representative, Shagun, didn’t bother to understand the issue before transferring the call. It was abrupt, dismissive, and frankly, unacceptable for any service establishment, let alone one claiming 5-star status.
What this really reflects is a deeper problem: the management or senior leadership clearly does not care about customer experience. If they did, there would be a functional support system in place, a dedicated team equipped to handle something as straightforward as billing queries. Instead, guests are left chasing the hotel for basic documentation.
It raises serious questions:
Where is the quality control?
Who is validating this “5-star” rating?
And more importantly, who is accountable when basic expectations aren’t met?
All I was asking for was a simple, itemised bill, something any hotel should be able to provide without this level of follow-up. The lack of responsiveness, ownership, and attention to detail is incredibly disappointing.
