5 Star Hotel - 1 Star Service

1. No response to our pre-stay requests via the hotel website 2. No service at the outdoor pool (drinks, towels etc.) 3. Told Sunday Brunch was full even though we were hotel residents, a table was found when we complained 4. The Sunday Brunch was a self-service buffet, food was uncovered, flies everywhere. Desserts were melted. Fish dish was inedible 5. Asked receptionist for a taxi, the response was 'her colleague would arrange' - I guess she meant the concierge who never returned, we had to walk. 6. Bar person could not understand English, had to get a receptionist to translate 7. Damaged bathroom tiles and very dirty behind the door 8. No mention of car park charge of 30 euros a day at check-in. 9. Hotel staff appeared disinterested and unmotivated. 10. 5 Star prices though – cheapest small bottle of beer 9 euros, same price for a tonic water! We only stayed 3 nights and yet so much to complain about. If you are looking for any kind of value for money, stay well clear.

Traditional Seaside hotel,

The hotel has undergone a makeover since we were last there and since we stayed in low season it was less than 50% full. We were given a disabled room, not requested or needed) and told it was the only room they had available which was itself rather strange. The downside of this was that the bathroom was constantly flooded when we took a shower (no bath) and certainly the bed was on the small side. The staff seemed at best disinterested and the cost of breakfast, parking etc was on par with a top city hotel. None of which may be out of order in La Baule in July but March??
