2/10 Terrible

I don't normally give travel reviews but my experience at the Meridian Hotel was so shockingly disappointing that I felt I had no choice but to do so. I paid $460 per night for my stay which in my view was extortionate given the poor level of service and amenities.
I arrived at the hotel at 8 pm to find the front desk unmanned and guests were left to check in using their virtual check in system. After reading the notice on the front desk I had to search my emails to find the Hotel’s email with my room number and smart lock code for access to my room.
When I got into the room I was dismayed at how basic it was. It was like staying in a youth hostel. The bath towels were cheap and thin and of dish rag quality, there were no lights in the room other than one bedside lamp and no plugs in the wall to charge your phone. The room also smelt of mould. To cap it all there no housekeeping service during our stay.
I’m not a prima donna and have no problem in staying at a hotel with such limited facilities and service provided the price reflects that.
I only booked the Meridian as all of the reviews I read about the hotel were glowing and the pictures looked great. It is clear to me these reviews overhyped the Meridian to such a degree that they were truly misleading and untruthful as to the quality of the service and facilities at the hotel. I am writing this review to give some balance to the comments about the hotel, I feel they were truly misleading. I won’t stay there again.
