Tidskrævende

Der var bogstavelig talt for langt fra a til b. Sengen var ikke optimal. Restauranten blev kun brugt til morgenmad, som ikke var inkluderet. Loungen havde en god menu af mindre, men gode retter, men den blev suspenderet, når der var buffet. Så kunne jeg gå ind på det, de kaldte den “italienske” restaurant. Men det var ikke en italiensk restaurant, da de nogen italienske restauranter kommer gammelost i pizza. Jeg bestiller ikke så tit pizza, men bestilte en, fordi der ifølge menuen skulle være artiskokker i. Men de var udeladt. De holder ikke, hvad de lover. De lovede mig den udtjekning, hvilket de også kke holdt, de lovede mig tur til Genocide memorial, hvilket de ikke holdt. Deres tur til markedet er bondefangeri. Du slipper ikke ud, før du har købt en kjole.

Disappointed with Radisson in Kigali

My initial contact with Radisson was for the room rate. I attended a convention and the sponsors negotiated a rate significantly below the advertised rate with directions to email the Radisson for reservations. I emailed Radisson, but did not receive a reply to my reservation request or the reduced rate, although I did receive a welcome email. The Radisson website advertised it offered the lowest rate available, but I booked with hotels.com for a lower rate (but higher than the negotiated rate). During my stay, I videoed a cockroach crawling on the headboard above my pillows that left a stain on the bed. I showed the video to the staff. They apologized, changed the sheets, and gave me a fruit basket. For the most part, the staff was quite professional, except for the discourteous pool staff. Overall, I give this Radisson in Kigali a three star review as my experience with service, cost, and cleanliness did not rise to my expectations for the Radisson brand.
