Customer experience needs improved

Check in was terrible, booked a room with Twin beds got given a double, had to wait 45 mins until someone came to room to sort this, rather than just changing room. Very cold staff, we booked breakfast when got to hotel and then they wouldn't refund us when we didn't have breakfast, Carparking we were left in an underground carpark for quite a period of time waiting for hotel to open the gates to get to our car, even though a member of staff walked us down and just left us at gate. Not a great experience at all from the may hotels we have stayed in.

Our stay at The Spencer Hotel was very disappointing. Check-in was not pleasant — the reception staff were unfriendly, with the exception of who we believe was the manager. It set a frustrating tone for the stay. The room was small, with carpets that felt a little dirty, and it was definitely not soundproof — hallway conversations and doors slamming were very audible. One of the two lifts was under construction, something not mentioned at booking. We watched an older couple give up after waiting more than 10 minutes and struggle to haul their luggage down four flights of stairs from the second floor. It was honestly painful to see and completely unacceptable. The hotel is not kid-friendly. There were no vanity kits or other thoughtful extras, and overall, it felt very basic. The location is convenient and accessible, which may work for business stays, and the Rituals products are a nice touch. However, for tourists or families, this hotel is not ideal. Unfortunately, the service, noise, and lack of comfort make it hard to recommend.

Rooms were amazing!! Breakfast and service in breakfast was great (Gloria) was perfect for a morning kind word and start — Hamid at front desk was always attentive to our questions and requests others that we encountered seemed to be disinterested Spa cancelled my service by text even though I was a guest at the hotel — really a call to the room would have been nice don’t always check my phone on holiday
