LUCINETE A TripAdvisor review

We visit the special Christmas room - The Teddy Bear Suite. It is so cute to visit, specially for children with their families. The employee, Ana Marie, she take care of the place very well and friendly with the visitors.

The Olympic Hotel was always a grand facility. But what becomes more apparent in recent years is that what made the hotel grand was in fact its people and its level of service. Unfortunately, as a lingering effect of the shortcuts taken during the pandemic, and due to other factors, the hotel is no longer grand. The staff that formerly greeted guests upon entry is gone. Doormen now are inadequately staffed and not of the caliber of days past. The check in is a cattle call, with inadequate staffing at the front desk, who are not versed in guest history or reservation details. Having stayed at the Olympic hundreds of nights over 40 plus years, and as a result knowing the hotel's phone number by memory, I now find my call directed to an AI assistant in some other location. This is not the Olympic way. The same holds true with guest services. Room service is relegated to a QVC code as it would take an Act of Congress to get someone to pick up a phone call as the guest phones no longer work that way (given that, it is a mystery why the phone is even in the room). I came to Seattle last weekend after staying at the Fairmont in Las Vegas. My experience there could not have been different. It appears that all of the pandemic shortcuts have become permanent, as an apparent way to save money. An that unfortunately makes the Olympic no longer special and just like any other hotel.

All was great, just one issue, we were supposed too get Champagne and Strawberries in room, upon check in, they weren’t there, called front desk, they said they would be sent up, they never were, upon checkout I adressed this with a very kind manager(did not get his name) He apologised and said he would add some points too my account too make up for mistake, nothing ever added,
