Hilton Garden Inn Tours Centre, France

The hotel completely destroyed my opinion about the Hilton brand by the absolute lack of parking space and providing no help or advance information about the problems with parking in the city centre. I stayed 3 nights in the hotel, which offered no parking at all. I had to cruise the city to find the spot. I noticed many other drivers doing the same. On each day I finally found free space far away from my hotel. Extreme case, on Friday evening I spent 30 minutes cruising (losing fuel and spoiling the atmosphere) and I found the space 1 km from the hotel. Incredible pity. Otherwise the hotel and the city are so nice, but I will always remember only my frustration.

I am a loyal customers of the Hilton brand and this hotel has disappointed me a lot ! I arrived late in the room and all I needed was a hot shower and a good night sleep. I run the water and can’t get it to warm up. I call the front desk who send an intern to check if the water does warm up (as if I did not know how to turn on the water) she is waking in the bathroom with her shoes, splashing water all over the place, waking in the water with her shoes, confirm that it’s not hot and leaves. 30min later I call the front desk to get an update. “You have to wait”. An hour later I call the front desk again because nobody is keeping updated, and they say: “the maintenance guy is gone for a while now, he fixed it”. In addition of not keeping me updated, they assumed it worked without checking with me who reported the problem. Then they continue with, “then you have to wait”. They did not offer to change room, they did not offer to have me shower in another room that could be cleaned the next day so we did not have to change room. And not talking about leaving me in my dirty bathroom, because waking with shoes in water where I am supposed to be bare foot is hygienic to them!! I had to go to bed with my day of plane/train dirtiness.
I am not mad that something went wrong, I am mad at it was handled ! Very poorly ! The next day and for the next 3 days asked to talk to the manager to share my feedback with her. She simply ignored all my requests. The day front desk lady was so apologetic, but the manager could not care less! And of course no gesture whatsoever was offered. Honestly stay away because when management is that bad, everything is bound to be bad in this hotel.
