For some reason, the reception desk always felt understaffed. On the day to check-in, I was the ONLY one in line and I waited for about an hour, because this dude in front of me was having a dispute with the desk clerk about his room charges, no one, I repeat, NO ONE, seems noticed that I was waiting. Similar story unfold in front of me again when I was waiting for check-out, but this time, there's another twist, after the desk clerk finally have time to process my business, a new intern walks in report for duty, so the desk clerk not only did not greeting me or apologize for the long wait, but also he went straight into business to show the new intern how to process a check-in customer ( I don't understand why he assumed I was check-in), then about five minutes into the tutorial instructions, I used just ablut every last bit of rationality that have left inside of me and told the desk clerk " Hi there." Slowly, desk clerk raised his chin and said " How may I help you?"
Anyway, I was speechless for this level of outstanding services, kudos for all the hotel staff I've been encounter, I think it's a great honor for me to even experience this level of hospitality in this days and age. Also honorable mention goes to customer service representative, i phoned in to report my encounter, but no follow ups. Oh wait! How can I forgot, The Desk Clerk, whom I have such a privilege to meet with, I wish you all the best.
Good bye Hotel Nikko Shanghai.
Sincerely,
A traveler.
