CUSTOMER SERVICE
What should I do if I
have a problem with the Hotel?
What information
should I have if I need to contact the Hotels customer service
department?
What should I do if I have a problem with the Hotel?
Speak with the front desk, explain
the problem and ask for it to be fixed.
If you can think of a satisfactory
solution to the problem, suggest it to whoever is working with you.
Allow for a reasonable response time
considering the nature of the problem.
Dont play the "big shot" game unless
you are one. "Do you know who I am and how often I stay with your
Hotel?" might be greeted by yes, once over the last two years.
Computers are doing a wonderful job keeping track of customers and
they may have your information right in front of them. If you try to
fake them out by acting like a big shot, they might just think you
are tying to get something for nothing and doubt your whole
story. You are their customer and that is enough to demand good
service.
Remain calm and keep it business
like. Dont make it a personal attack against the person who is
trying to help you. The person is human and your professionalism
will bring you better results than unleashing your anger.
If you dont feel the person whom you
are dealing with is helpful, ask to see a supervisor.
Calmly explain your situation to the
supervisor and allow them to fix the problem.
If you have gone up the local chain
of command and are still unhappy, contact the Hotels customer
service department.

according to proper company policies or feel those policies dont
provide for proper customer service; question the customer service
department about your treatment.
Include the effect this problem will

Include your name, address and a
