My arrival was delayed due to flight delay, I contacted the hotel through my booking site. When we eventually arrived (about 2am, initial advice was we would arrive approx midnight. We were told our room was put down as a ‘no show’ delaying us getting to our room further, what was most disappointing that there was no attempted contact to us to see where we were or an ETA.
My last night I went to settle my bill as we had an early check out. The concierge essentially ignored me for a couple of mins till I made a point to him that I was standing there.
Finally, our room cleanliness was ok, but things such as food scraps from fruit wouldn’t be cleared until we left the plate outside our room.
Won’t be rushing back

We got to the hotel at 2 am due to our flight being delayed for 2hrs. We checked in, we went up to our room but there was someone already in the room!
Reception checked our names again, confirmed the room they gave us was the room which was given to us on the system and said they could not understand why someone was already in the room and they would send security to check.
I said we re very tired, give us another room, your internal processes are none of our business

I sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and disappointment you experienced on arrival, particularly after such a long and arduous journey. It is our priority to provide every guest with a warm welcome and a comfortable, impeccably prepared stay, and I am truly sorry that we fell short of these standards on this occasion.
We take your comments very seriously and have reviewed our housekeeping procedures following this incident. Although the room had thankfully not been occupied, it had not been thoroughly cleaned following the previous guest’s departure. This is clearly not the standard we expect, and I am grateful to you for bringing it to our attention so that we can ensure the appropriate measures are taken to prevent a recurrence.
We greatly appreciate your continued loyalty to Accor thank you once again for your understanding. Should you have any further comments or feedback you would like to share, please do not hesitate to contact me directly.
