Ulasan Lindner Hotel Bratislava

It was my first stay in a Lindner hotel which was recently acquired by Hyatt and merged into the Joie de Vivre brand. JdV is a full service brand so I somehow expected something similar from Lindner but I was moderately disappointed - Lindner was a clear step below JdV. That said, for the price I paid I cannot say that it was unacceptable; Lindner was fairly inexpensive and the product is relatively well aligned with the price. The good news is that I was upgraded to a junior suite as Hyatt Globalist guest so no complaint about the treatment. That said, the room felt far more like a Holiday Inn or a Novotel than a full service hotel within Hyatt group. The shower was in the bathtub and there was only one door to the bathroom, either to close the toilet enclosure or to close the bathroom itself; it was not possible to close both at the same time because the same door was used for both. Also the bathroom toiletries were cheap no-name stuff. Last but not least, the dark brown carpet was pretty uninspiring. Where the hotel performed better was in terms of breakfast which felt on par with what this hotel should be regarding the food choices and the quality. However I was a bit surprised about how it worked because my understanding is that breakfast is not provided for free to all guests at this hotel but staff just let anybody walk in and serve themselves. In fact there was very little service in the restaurant as nobody spoke to us the entire time we were there. Overall while my comments above might seem on balance more negative than positive, since we can pay a bit more than 100 EUR for a room at this hotel which is also Hyatt category 1 for points redemptions, it's hard to be overly harsh. I simply don't think it fits JdV well but the hotel on its own is ok.
