I'd like to title this review: "The Power of Taking Ownership"

My wife and I recently got married in Charlotte, NC. Our Wedding Planner booked the Crowne Plaza for their Honey Moon Suites package. (We needed somewhere local to stay for the night before our honey moon trip).

The night of our wedding, after an EXTREMELY long day, beautiful wedding, and hours of dancing/partying...we arrive in Crowne Plaza me in my tuxedo and my wife still in her wedding dress. When I gave them our names at the front desk, they did not have either of us in the system for a room that night.

We spoke with the manager and had her check with our credit cards and no reservation was to be found. After 20 minutes of exhausting research...nothing came up and I started calling my wedding planner (by now, my wedding planner was asleep after an exhausting 350 person wedding she helped to execute).

Luckily, our wedding planner had all email correspondence with Crowne Plaza's sales rep on file. She began to forward these emails as evidence to Crowne Plaza's manager who was searching for our reservation. By this time, my wife was sleeping in the car, I was exhausted standing on my feet in front of this woman who I was starting to get very irritated with. However, due to my exhaustion I did something I normally do not do - I stayed quiet & patient.

All of a sudden, I noticed the look on the Hotel Manager's face change...her attitude changed instantly as she read the emails and realized that the Hotel's Sales Rep confirmed our reservation but never put it into the system.

INSTANTLY - Crowne Plaza's Manager (or supervisor whoever this woman was) apologized multiple times, took full ownership for the error, and made our stay at Crowne Plaza on the house!!!! :) Not only that but she threw in a few extras that I will not mention so that I don't get anyone in trouble...our stay at the Crowne Plaza was the first of many blessings & gifts in our marriage! :)

Something that had the potential to ruin our evening actually blessed us tremendously. Not just the saved $$$...but the respect, professinoalism, and superior maturity that the hotel manager exercised when she took ownership. I am more than impressed.

A review that would have been 1 or 2 star is 5 stars because of one honorable hotel manager who had the common sense to make no excuses, take ownership, and treat a customer the way they deserve to be treated.

Both me and my wife travel often on business, we both have family in Charlotte, NC and because of that hotel manager we will stay at one hotel and one hotel only - the Crowne Plaza Charlotte!

I look forward to staying at a hotel managed by professional, mature leaders!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
