Bad Front Desk Experience

1.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 4 weeks ago
Upon checking into the hotel, I encountered one of the rudest front desk people ever. To say that the front desk staff are the face of the hotel, he did a bad job. If I had not been there for a conference, I would have never completed the check in process. Also, when I checked into my room someone else's name appeared on the TV as the person in the room. It only changed to my name for 2 hours on the last night, then someone else's name appeared. That was very strange, it made me feel as if someone else would be joining me in my room! I will not be coming back to this particular hotel ever and would not recommend it to anyone.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. I sincerely apologize for the disappointing check-in experience you encountered and the mix-up with the in-room display. We strive to provide each guest with a warm and welcoming stay, and it’s clear we missed the mark during your visit.

Your feedback about the front desk staff is very concerning, and please know we are addressing this with our team to ensure our guests receive respectful, attentive service. Regarding the issue with the TV display, this is certainly not typical, and I understand how unsettling it must have felt. We’re currently investigating this to prevent it from happening in the future.

I’m truly sorry we did not meet your expectations on this visit. Thank you again for your feedback, which is invaluable in helping us improve.

We spent the weekend for a family wedding. The hotel is massive and is very nice. It is conveniently located and only 15 minutes from the airport. The room was very nice and the bed was comfortable. All of the hotel's amenities were top notch. The gym was amazing and not like your typical hotel gym. It had every exercise machine you could think of. Lastly, the staff were amazing. Everyone was friendly and kind.

This hotel was massive and really great. The staff was helpful, check in was a breeze, the rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. It was a quick walk to Lucas Oil Stadium and also the downtown area with many restaurants (about 10 minutes away). We were extremely satisfied with our stay. My company booked the room so I have on value but I can assure you this place is really nice.

Thr JW is the jewel of hotels for Indianapolis as far as I am concerned. The concierge and her staff do a super great job. The area is immaculate and they all do a great job to keep it that way. I am sorry but I cannot remember the concierge name but I remember that it ends in an I. Also I would like to commend both Ethan and Abbie of the front desk that both wanted to make sure I feel welcomed and valued.

Room tip: Please do not pass up the opportunity to experience excellence.

The personalized experience provided by Brandon was the pinnacle of our weekend. It was our first anniversary and the flowers, petals, and champagne that awaited us made us feel like the most important people in the hotel. With amazing views and an elite luxury feel, we will be returning to the JW and experiencing this amazing staff again and again!!
