I
have
stayed
several
times
at
The
InterContinental
in
my
past
visits
to
Warsaw,
and
have
usually
been
very
pleased
with
both
the
accommodation
and
the
service.
My
wife
and
I
decided
to
celebrate
our
one-year
wedding
anniversary
here,
but
were
met
with
unhelpful
and
downright
rude
staff,
as
well
as
a
room
with
subpar
amenities.
The
ironing
board
in
the
room
had
a
small
piece
of
the
metal
frame
sticking
out
through
the
middle,
which
I
unfortunately
did
not
notice
until
it
had
poked
several
holes
in
my
dress
shirt.
We
decided
to
tell
this
to
the
receptionist
at
check-out,
who
at
first
did
not
understand
what
the
issue
was
until
my
wife
(who
speaks
Polish)
explained
it
to
her.
After
explaining
what
had
happened,
the
receptionist
-
who
apparently
had
not
really
listened
and/or
didn’t
speak
Polish
very
well
either
-
rhetorically
asked
“But
nothing
happened,
right?”.
We
were
then
brushed
off
with
perhaps
the
most
insincere
and
robotic
‘apology’
I’ve
ever
heard.
The
tone
and
attitude
almost
made
me
doubt
if
I
was
being
crazy
to
bring
it
up.
I
wasn’t
expecting
a
reimbursement
or
anything,
but
a
sincere
acknowledgment
that
their
broken
equipment
had
ruined
my
clothes
would
be
the
bare
minimum
that
I
would
expect
from
the
“best
hotel
in
the
capital”.
I’ve
honestly
experienced
better
service
at
budget
hotels.
The
service
once
again
failed
at
breakfast,
where
an
employee,
who
appeared
to
be
the
manager,
acted
in
a
rude
fashion
when
my
wife
tried
to
order
coffee.
The
response
doesn’t
translate
well
to
English,
but
the
essence
is
that
nobody
in
the
service
industry
in
Poland
would
typically
behave
like
this
to
a
customer,
much
less
in
a
high-end
hotel
like
this.
My
guess
is
that
he
thought
my
wife
did
not
speak
Polish.
Apart
from
those
negative
experiences,
the
hotel
is
nice.
Breakfast
is
delicious,
the
rooms
are
spacious.
The
gym
and
spa
on
the
top
floor
offer
amazing
views
of
the
city,
although
it
can
get
crowded.
In
the
sauna,
hygienic
rules
are
often
not
followed
by
guests,
which
is
a
shame.
