revieweridC078C4B6B097298C08B8BD5E2102AAA4reviewernameoptimism1776reviewtextRead very carefully the pattern of many the identical criticisms of the personalities of the two managers They need to control all guest interactions and behavior The hotel appearance is nice and clean but the customer experience suffers greatly They are control freaks leading to an awful pattern of behavior among the managers that manifests itself in dishonesty We booked a double room successfully on Expedia last evening and received an email confirmation of such for a stay in August 2018 Early this morning Expedia sent us a cancellation notice suggesting a credit card rejection by the hotel I called the Hotel Phoenix directly In Reykjavik and spoke to the day manager He was efficiently polite but abrupt I gave him my personal information and he insisted that my Amex card was invalid I assured him it is in good standing and offered to book directly with him I told him the nightly rate I paid online see below He said I must work through Expedia or another online booking aggregator like TripAdvisor He was just reception and had no ability to access their reservation system this in a very small hotel of 9 rooms I then called Expedia Expedia said the Hotel Phoenix rejected my card Expedia offered to call the Hotel while I was on hold and they spoke with the manager The hotel manager reiterated my card was rejected without providing a specific reason to Expedia I then conferenced Expedia and Amex to discuss Amex insisted my card was in good standing The Expedia rep acknowledged this Amex said there was NO ATTEMPT to process my card by the hotel after Expedia confirmed my reservation and accepted my AMEX during the online booking process Now the interesting part The double room I booked last evening was listed on Expedia and TripAdvisor at 21800 per night US The Expedia rep said she would rebook the same room over the phone with me When she gave me the price of the room the Hotel had just raised the minimum rate to 33000 Since bookings are now increasing for this summer in Reykjavik a very busy time of year the hotel decided it did not have to honor its published rate nor its relationship with Expedia to provide that published rate 21800 to guests me wanting to and expecting pay that agreed upon rate Read Delegators review written just one month ago in February 2018 He provides excellent detail on their method Bait and switch pure and simple In reality these guys did me a big favor Life is short Ill find a reputable place to stay in
