First impression when I entered this hotel was WOW. Its an old building with very modern decorations. Looks clean and high end.
Mick Jagger stayed there, along with many local celebrities, actors, I think even Schwarzenegger had a room there...
Conveniently located near downtown Gratz, everything is basically within a walking distance.
That's about it. Here is a list of cons that really bothered me during my stay:
- My room was in between 2 floors thus forcing me to carry my (very heavy) luggage to my room. not cool when you have 50 pounds luggage in both hands and you just arrive after a 19 hours trip.
- Bed is on the floor. Elevated floor but no spring box. It makes it really hard to lay down if you have a bad back/knee. You literally have to "crawl" to bed. This was extremely annoying.
(The room looks like an IKEA demo bedroom. Nice looking but you can tell it's a bit cheap and very fake.) See here: https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/hotel-wiesler-graz?select=V3cM2cvs93iztzinxaEefQ
- After the cleaning lady came to my room:
- PUBIC HAIRS showed up by the head of the bed! (and those were certainly NOT mines!!!) See here: https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/hotel-wiesler-graz?select=t9f1LWyO4h9IHvesaKYGIw
- She unplugged my iPad and removed the charger from the power outlet...huh... who touches customer's property like this? my tablet was therefore not charged when I got back to my room. Unacceptable.
- You can't walk around the buffet in the breakfast room. Nice breakfast but the space b/w the buffet and the chairs/tables is so small that 2 people can't 'cross' without bumping into seated customers (r bumping into each other). Many frustrated customers. A mess.
- The room has stickers that actually threaten customers in case of bad behavior (Thieves are pigs... smoking in the room and you'll be joined by very angry firemen...etc)
This is childish, offensive for well behaving customers. it's like judging people on their intents. I feel it's very disrespectful. They can just say "no smoking" or "the hairdryer is yours for $100"... See here: https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/hotel-wiesler-graz?select=IBrdgZFwhMitMKuvQW1XQQ
The man at the front desk was quite rude when talking to me. I won't go back read more
