My
stay
at
Mercure
Grand
Hotel
Biedermeier
Wien
was
a
mixed
bag,
with
both
positive
and
disappointing
aspects.
The
hotel
rooms
were
satisfactory,
providing
a
comfortable
stay
and
rooms
were
serviced
everyday.
However,
the
service
fell
short
of
expectations.
Upon
our
arrival
on
December
24th
at
1:30
PM,
we
were
informed
that
check-in
would
be
at
3:00
PM,
and
despite
our
inquiry
about
the
hotel
restaurant,
we
were
later
told
it
was
full
upon
our
return
at
4:00
PM,
leaving
us
without
a
Christmas
Eve
dinner.
While
the
rooms
were
generally
serviced
daily,
there
was
a
lapse
on
the
second-to-last
day
when
there
was
no
soap
in
the
shower,
and
it
was
not
replenished.
Additionally,
the
TV
in
our
room
didn't
work
at
all,
and
the
bathroom
sink
had
slow
water
disbursement.
The
most
disappointing
incident
occurred
during
breakfast
on
the
second-to-last
day,
where
we
experienced
outright
disrespect
from
the
waitress,
Stella.
She
not
only
slammed
a
coffee
cup
at
me
but
also
displayed
a
dismissive
attitude.
When
my
upset
wife
sought
the
manager's
intervention
going
to
the
entry
of
the
restaurant,
Stella
followed
my
wife
and
stood
in
front
of
her
and
said
“By
the
way,
my
name
is
Stella”
and
then
left
the
scene.
To
our
dismay,
the
restaurant
manager
was
unavailable,
and
we
received
an
apology
from
the
hotel
manager,
who
wasn't
involved
in
the
incident.
Despite
the
reception
manager's
attempt
to
compensate
with
a
bottle
of
wine
that
we
declined
as
the
only
request
was
the
apology
from
Stella
but
the
lack
of
a
genuine
(or
any)
apology
from
Stella
left
a
sour
taste.
This
unfortunate
encounter
significantly
tainted
our
perception
of
the
hotel's
service
and
ruined
our
whole
day.
In
conclusion,
while
the
accommodations
met
basic
standards,
the
unprofessional
behaviour
of
a
staff
member
marred
our
stay,
leaving
us
disappointed
and
questioning
the
overall
quality
of
service
at
Mercure
Grand
Hotel
Biedermeier
Wien.
