The hotel itself is beautiful and the rooms were clean and comfortable no complaints there. However, the service we experienced was absolutely unacceptable and completely ruined what was supposed to be a celebratory occasion.
I had informed the hotel in advance that we were celebrating my friendās graduation. I even arranged to have flowers and 10ā20 balloons delivered to the hotel via my personal driver ā nothing extravagant, just something thoughtful to mark the occasion. To my surprise, the staff refused to deliver the items to the room and instead confiscated them without notifying us.
When I called to ask why, I was told the balloons might āharm the roomās interiorā ā which made no sense. After several calls, I asked to speak to the manager, but was told she was āin a meeting.ā I went down myself and found her immediately and thatās where things got worse.
The manager was extremely rude, making passive remarks about the flowers being ācheapā and insisting they would ādirty the room.ā I asked why that would matter since housekeeping cleans anyway, and she snapped that the hotel isnāt responsible for cleaning āourā flower petals. When I pointed out that flower petals are often part of romantic packages in hotels, she replied, āWe work with a supplier and know his work ā not like yours,ā.
She finally said we could keep our items only if we paid a 100 KWD deposit, which they immediately deducted from our card (not just held) and told us weād have to wait two weeks for a refund. Not once did she apologize. In fact, she spoke to us in a condescending tone, saying things like āIām trying to make this very simple so youāll understandā completely uncalled for and humiliating.
This experience turned what should have been a joyful, memorable night into a frustrating ordeal.
To hotel management: I sincerely hope you review how guests are treated especially when they go out of their way to celebrate special moments at...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWhen I travel the hotel I stay in makes 50% of the experience especially if I go to a new country. Well Grand Hyatt Kuwait exceeded my expectations and made my stay abslutely wonderful.
First I would like to mention that it's one of the most luxurious hotels I stayed in and trust me, I visited 50+ countries and stayed in a lot of luxury hotels. Some of them had 5* for nothing, but this hotel absolutely deserves its five stars.
Room: Everything is of an incredible quality, from the tiles in the bathroom to the bed matress which was very confortable. I have back pain sometimes in hotels, but here I slept like a baby. Also, I liked the pillows, they were made especially for the hotel. They provide toiletries from Balmain and they offer a nespresso machine in the room. Their shower has a really cool system with buttons (unlike those where you turn the shower by mistake to the wrong direction and you get a rainy shower on your just styled hair, yep, did that so I do appreciate the buttons here). For me, a great hotel experience is all about the little details.
Spa&Pool: One of the most beautiful indoor pools I have seen. It looks so atmospheric and elegant! And they made a beautiful green garden outdoor where I took so many photos, it is really unique what they did. I also booked a massage which was really good and needed after my flight.
Other: -The hotel lobby looks incredible. -Their staff were so nice accomodating all our requests, including a late checkout and they also helped us print out boarding passes. -In Room dining food was so yummy, we had it every day during our stay. Their mezze selection is one of the best I have ever had. -Bonus: great location as it connects to a mall+if you want to visit Kuwait, you're in luck as it's only 15-20 min drive from all the tourist attractions.
Honestly I have no complains, normally my husband says I am quite picky, but this time all the boxes were ticked for a...
