Well I am here at the PHZ now and this kind of sums up my feelings.
As a Diamond there was no room upgrade, in fact I must be in the smallest room they have tucked at the very end of a corridor far from the elevator.
No Diamond amenity that I am aware of, although there was a small bag of some type of confectionery next to a welcome letter. Fresh fruit is included with all rooms according to the hotel brochure.
I ordered some eggs at breakfast, maybe somebody called in sick, I have had better eggs on an airplane, I am surprised they served it! The rest of the buffet is nice and from here on out I will stick with that. Service is fine but cold and mechanical.
I have stayed at a number of PH's around the world with the last being in Istanbul which I am now using as the benchmark to judge others, and the PH Zurich, while a fine hotel so far as I can tell is maybe more of a Grand Hyatt (GH Berlin is more Park like than this place!).
So a perfectly fine Hyatt but does not feel particularly special or especially welcoming and if my experience is any indication, do not expect *anything* special if you are a Diamond!
Glad I used FFN's here....or am I?
