The Thistle Hotel Barbican - Woeful

10 Things that should stop you staying at this awful hotel;

1. They took 30 minutes to check me in.
2. They gave me a key that didn't work 3 times (having sent me to the furthest room from resception - In what can only be described as a youth hostel.
3. Their orange juice is diluted and tasteless
4. The TV didn't work as it kept defaulting to a message telling me I could book a taxi from the concierge. - This was for 2 days.
5. My colleague had a hairdryer pack up on her like an asthmatic having a bad day
6. My other colleague turned his alarm clock off a fused his room as a result.
7. We had an evening dinner/presentation for 20 people and they pit us in a room to fit 400 plus. - So lacking in atmosphere it killed the evening dead.
8. They gave us awful cheap wine by way of compensation - so bad we left it in the hotel.
9. The staff are surly- especially in reception and the swimming pool
10. It's nowehere near the Barbican

Don't give it a go try somewhere else. - It's theraputic to get bad service 'off your chest' - just take the crap and let it out!!!!!!!
