At first positively surprised, staff was very friendly and accommodating. However, we upgraded the room for the last night (Saturday to Sunday) to a king tower suite, and that’s when things became interesting:
1) Initially we were told we can move rooms anytime we want. When we wanted to move, we were told for about 2-3 hours that the room is being cleaned, and we were only able to move at 5pm!!! (Normal check-in time is at 3pm)
2) We had friends visiting and wanted to get some extra glasses.. room service said they only have a limited number of glasses available so only 5 white, 5 red wine glasses could be provided. Never experienced anywhere that a hotel does not have enough glasses…
3) Tried to order a club sandwich at 10pm, and fries. First we were told that someone will get the fries as they don't do it in house, then received a call saying they don’t have anyone who can get it and if we can order them ourselves via delivery service. Then also ordered a tuna sandwich at 10pm, called again after an hour.. Sandwich never arrived, only the fries that we ordered ourselves…
4) on check out we realized that WA billed 750€ too much. When we asked why the first response was that the room rates are changing depending on capacity, this is unacceptable to say to a guest who made a booking with a certain price. Then we talked to someone else, who then said it was an issue with the system, apparently the system is bad and used different room rates..
This was the weekend we got married and we wanted it to be perfect, which is why we booked the Waldorf. Unfortunately, not going to come back to this hotel.
