St Christopher's Inn Camden

London|0.95km from London Zoo
Dear Management, I voiced my concern to the receptionist about how the power unit at my bed couldn’t function, specifically a male supervisor who didn’t provide his name but referred himself as FB. The first thing he said , I could do nothing about it and asked me to charge my phone in the lobby. He went on for about a minute to lecture me on how they are not responsible for making sure I have power supply , he is not a electrician and how I should ‘solve my own problem’. *End of discussion*. When I followed up on room available , he told that there were parties that haven’t arrived in the same room, but he refused to let me switch , claiming it is unfair to them , but without having thought on my situation or the fact that they might not even show up . I asked him to refund me instead , but he refused , even thought he wouldn’t do anything about my situation . Throughout the conversation , he showed me little respect , quoted ‘ I don’t understand your English ( I am an Asian who has IELTS level 8 btw ) ‘ , ‘ I don’t work with people who are passive aggressive ( how does it have to do with my tone ? As far as I am concerned I didn’t use any instructive tones nor name calling . ) . I read the raving reviews about your hostel , in fact I visited your other branch located in borough, they impressed me with their eager and helpful tone , I had to say it was a dismay to have wrongly chosen to stay at Camden . And I recommend people who read this review think carefully .

Holiday Inn London - Camden Lock
4.2/5119 Reviews
I have been staying at the Holiday Inn in Camden on and off for a few years now (before and after COVID) and have seen it change management a couple of times over the years and remained loyal as it works as a great location. However over the past few months there has been a noticeable change in the customer experience and I must say it makes this place special. They understand their customers, adapt to each of their needs, can never do enough for you and are just so delighted to see you and welcome you to the hotel. Whilst the whole team have impressed me, I must call out Bianca who is sensational, her level of customer expeience is as good if not better than any I have experienced over my years travelling across countries. Thank you to Bianca and the whole team
