We were really looking forward to our stay in Fels Point after reading most of the other reviews but were very disappointed.
On arrival the receptionist was very friendly and we the room was ok apart from a few little things!
However, breakfast the following morning was a disaster. Firstly we were waiting five minutes to be seated, which I could have forgotten about. We replied "Tea" when asked what we would like to drink. However, we received tea and toast (without butter, sugar or milk!!!) when we had FINISHED our breakfast after having asked three separate staff members! We just left.
Before dinner we decided to go to the bar to watch the Heineken Cup Rugby Final but the bar had no Sky Sports, which also annoyed many of the other customers. We had also hoped to watch the Irish soccer match later on so this was disappointing.
Taking all of the above into account we decided to give the hotel a chance and were looking forward to dinner. However, like a previous reviewer (review titled "Disappointing") we also booked a package and had a similar experience at dinner. The waitress made it more than obvious that we were on a package and I had to ask for the "normal" menu. My partner asked what a certain dessert was. The waitress did not know and did not find out! We were NEVER asked if everything was ok or if we needed anything. She didn't smile once!!! It felt as if we were not worthy of service and this is putting it mildly! As we were leaving, a different server followed us out the door of the restaurant telling us we had to sign for our meal, which we had ALREADY done. This was really embarrassing.
After dinner we decided to return to our room and stayed there until the morning. We got up early and breakfast ran more smoothly as we decided to stick with juice and cereal.
Overall the hotel is nice but the restaurant staff ruined our stay at this hotel.
