Radek, Richmond

The property was fine. The area was amazing. But the staff at checking seemed confused. I only stayed one night … but just noticed that my credit card had been charged three (3) times?? Can you please assist me to correct this. I was charged twice by the Kimton Hotel $450.28 CDN on July 19 and $540.41 CDN also on July 19 and $617.86 CDN by Expedia on July 18th? I can’t believe that this could happen. Can you please contact me by email at rsedivy@telus.net. Thank you Radek Sedivy

love this hotel and have stayed before. Unfortunately we were given a disabled room with view of a wall. Also now charge £8 room service which I have never been charged at any Kimpton or 5 star hotel. Would expect room service not to be chargeable in a hotel of this standard
