I have to say that the paying of our restaurant bill totally changed my thought of the whole situation (especially as a surprise). I went and shook the managers hand after we returned from dinner. Really well done.

I suppose that it being Sunday made for difficult handling of the situation initially since the general manager was out.
It sounds like you reserved a table for dinner through the hotel and they contacted the restaurant to arrange to pay. Did they suggest the restaurant or was there some connection such as being a restaurant of a sister hotel?
