I booked two rooms in Hotel Elm and stayed there on 18-12-24 and checked out on 19th morning. Surprisingly the hotel turned out to be really bad in all respects despite having good reviews. First thing that shocked me upon check in was that lift was not operational and I and my wife (with a painful knee) had to climb the stairs. The staff kept mum when I asked them since when the lift is not operational and when it will be repaired...indicating that generally the lift does not work.
I was told that room was centrally heated but the heating function did not work. When I called the service staff, they switched on the heating mode from their master control. However this did not improve the room temperature.
I had paid for free breakfast so next morning I get a call from their desk saying that breakfast will be served in room only. When I protested then they told me to go to the roof top as they do not permit guests to have breakfast in their ground floor restaurant. So they expected guests to climb three floors (since lift is not working) and have breakfast in bitter cold at the rooftop early in the morning. I was content with having a fixed breakfast in room despite paying for a full fledged buffet spread.
The room was stinking and the staff could not understand the reason behind it. The service was poor. Also we seem to be the only guest in that hotel. The hotel management is only alert about bad reviews and gives great replies to all bad reviews but hardly anybody is available to address the issues faced by the guests. Why don't they inform the guest if the lift is not working and permit guests to use the kitchen lift in case someone is unable to climb stairs is not clear. Why don't they use their restaurant to serve breakfast and insist on giving room service where you have very limited choice to order from is not clear. Why do they charge so heavily? what for? I am surprised that this hotel is still...
