River Palace Hotel recensioner

Very popular with business travellers in the energy industry this hotel is located right on the river. There are a number of restaurants in close walking distance. The best thing about this property was they kindly upgraded me to a large apartment. The second best thing is the proces are extremely reasonable if you’re on a corporate rate. As for the opportunities for improvement, it was strange that they only give you one towel for your bathroom. I called reception to ask for a 2nd one and was told it’s not possible. So I waited until later and spoke to reception a 2nd time, explaining a needed 2 towels - again it was clear this was not something they do. That in itself earns the hotel a 3* review. They also only supplied three flat pillows and I only got the 4th pillow sent up on 2nd request. The other annoyance was the internal heating. When I arrived my room temp was 27C. Only after I shut the heating off, and open windows (-10C outside) could I get the temp down to a level where it was comfortable to sleep. Maybe it’s a cultural issue but the heating is set way too high. The other area for improvement is in food service. If you order a meal don’t assume all items will arrive at the same time, as you would expect. Only one of the two lifts were working causing delays during bus6 periods. What I liked was good little mini bar in reception area and nice spa with very inexpensive massage service.
