Disappointing hotel experience for a leisure trip

What a disappointment. This is clearly a hotel which relies on the Corporate customer and relies on the fact that patrons are not having to pay out of their own pocket. I was staying as a non business guest and was shocked at the attitude and unhelpfulness of the staff. Furthermore, and quite coincidentally, this is a hotel that does not accept cash in any way, shape or form. I say this because my stay started on the day of the outages in Spain and Portugal when the digital world ground to a halt. To add salt to the wound, they insist on card payments up front to cover your entire stay i.e. they took £50 per night from my card irrespective of whether I was going to spend any money in the hotel or not. Accessing the hotel to begin with was incredibly difficult as I was carrying an injury which staff knew about. This involved having to negotiate a spiral staircase with luggage. I raised this as an issue and the manageress arrived at reception addressing me as 'dear' which she continued to do throughout my brief and shortened stay. General indifference and lack of friendliness was common among all staff apart from the night porter who was very pleasant and helpful. The Breakfast experience was also very disappointing due to staff issues and the attitude of the Breakfast Service 'Manager'. I wrote to Malmaison to give them the right to reply prior to submitting my review and I received a voicemail saying that they had received my feedback and wanted to discuss. No further call.

The Malmaison is set in the heart of Aberdeen within walking distance of the city centre . It has a unique boutique vibe and has had a recent lavish refurbishment. The restaurant is very popular and can be very busy at the weekend in particular so be sure to book. The one slight drawback is that there is limited parking onsite and lots of parking restrictions in the area .

The hotel itself is beautiful—stylish rooms, great location, and excellent room service staff. Unfortunately, the front desk and customer service left a lot to be desired. I tried to book directly, but the hotel’s website was down. When I called the reservations office, I was disconnected—and when I tried again the next morning, they were closed until 10am. I ended up having to book through a third party. At check-in, I expressed my frustration and asked if they would honor the “member rate” listed on their site, which included a discounted dinner, breakfast, and late checkout. I was told curtly that there’s no such thing as a membership—despite that being the term used on their own website. There was no assistance with luggage, and the directions to the rear parking were vague. Though the setting was lovely and dinner was enjoyable, we skipped breakfast and chose another spa for the rest of our stay due to the poor front desk and reservation experience. Sadly, Malmaison Aberdeen has lost my confidence. I won’t be returning.
