Absolutely appalling experience! One of the worst hotel stays we have ever had.
We booked the Niagara Falls Marriott Fallsview Hotel & Spa expecting a premium experience, professional service, and the standards associated with an internationally recognised hotel chain. Instead, we encountered billing problems, broken promises, and shockingly poor customer service.
First, we were charged TWICE for our accommodation! Our reservation had already been paid in full several months before our arrival. Yet, upon checking in, the hotel charged us again. How can a supposedly reputable hotel fail to recognise a prepaid booking? This is completely unacceptable and raises serious concerns about the hotel’s billing procedures. It’s been a week since we stayed there and the money is still on hold.
Second, the hotel failed to honour its promise of complimentary parking. We were specifically assured that parking would be provided free of charge. However, at check-out, we were suddenly informed that we had to pay for it. Apparently, what the staff promise at check-in means absolutely nothing when it comes to settling the final bill.
Third, the customer service was absolutely dreadful. The staff were unhelpful, dismissive, and showed little interest in resolving the problems. There was no genuine effort to make things right or take responsibility for the inconvenience caused.
What makes this experience particularly frustrating is that this hotel charges premium prices while delivering service that falls far below even basic hospitality standards.
Guests should not have to worry about being charged twice, receiving contradictory information, or fighting to have promises honoured. These are fundamental expectations, not luxury extras!
The spectacular view of Niagara Falls cannot make up for such an unacceptable experience. However, the widows are dirty and the view of the falls is quite blurred. .
My advice to anyone considering this hotel: THINK TWICE BEFORE BOOKING. Check every charge carefully, keep proof of all payments, and get every promise in writing.
We left feeling frustrated, disappointed, and completely let down.
Marriott Fallsview should be ashamed of this level of service. This experience has seriously damaged our trust in the Marriott brand.
Definitely NOT recommended. One star is already too generous
