Good experience for short trip

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 4 weeks ago
Always prefer raintree st mary road for my business travels. The location is perfect especially the helpful staff and the food is comforting. Special shoutout to Ajay Vishveswaran who helped me not only in the restaurant but went extra mile to help me the issue i had with the room.

Check in issue:
1/1 st day of arrival I was asked at front desk if I wanted an extra bed. I asked the person if there was no extra charge and answer was clearly "No"
Finally, on day of departure I find out there was a surcharge for bed. When inquiring for explanation, front desk Mgr showed me a piece of paper stating that extra bed was to be charged.
I said i could not be held responsible for any miscommunication between team members!!!
2/ personnel of taking care of breakfast needs some serious trng. We had 3 breakfast and same issues were encountered during morning.
My wife had to wait an hour to get a massala tea, then next day she was craving for poori so she had to go ask someone that should take 10 mns and later on she asked same person where her order was, person told her to come back in 10 mns.
People are just wandering around the room, talking to each other, not taking care of any customers' s needs!!
Is that the level of service we should expect from a 5 star hotel as you advertise yourself...

Dear Mr. Siva,

Greetings of the day !

Thank you for taking time write you detailed feedback of you recent experience at the Raintree St. Mary's.

Please accept our sincerest apology for the issues and for the delay in responding to you.

Sir, we had received a modified confirmation voucher from Booking.com on 30th June’24 which pointed booking on triple occupancy with two adults and one child. We noticed that the child is above 10 years of age and on the voucher it clearly states that any extra bed will be on a chargeable basis. We only consider children under the age of 10 years as complimentary whereas this was a case of a 17 year old. We accept that the duty manager was at fault in reading this as with further investigation we have found that you had paid on triple occupancy. We are happy to refund you the extra bed differential charged back to your Amex credit card used at departure.

Also we have escalated the matter on breakfast service and our Director Food and Beverage with the training team will work towards better training of staff so that none of our esteemed guests have to face such an issue. Going forward we will assure that we provide a seamless service.

Thank you for your kind understanding.

Kind Regards,

Rajesh Elumalai
General Manager

While the room, the ambience and the amenities are nice, services are below average. I stayed at this hotel for two nights and I had to call and remind the reception multiple times for every little thing. They tend to forget what I had requested and when I would call again, an other person would start afresh.
