What is your Raddison Rewards status?
VIP

Where did you stay?
Prizotel Bonn, Germany

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes.

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked standard and got standard

Did you receive elite benefits?
Complimentary Room Upgrade - No.
Complimentary Breakfast - unclear, no one ever challenged me for a room number

Early Check In - Not requested
Late Check Out - Not requested
In-Room Welcome Gift - No (everyone checking in got a free drink regardless)

How are the rooms
Compact but well designed, very 'instagram' friendly. Clean and functional no concern for a one person for two it would be a bit tight.


What was good and what was bad?
Check in was painfully slow, it didn't matter how the reservation was made it was painfully slow for all. Only one staff member on duty but appeared to have up to 4 positions available. Anytime I passed through reception in the evening there was a queue.

Rooms are compact (think Paris compact) but functional, clean, quiet and in good order (Hotel is only just opened). Minimal desk space so not a place you would try to do any serious work from.

WiFi worked, no messing just a simple password

Breakfast was actually pretty decent for a bottom of market product

While this was booked through Radisson rewards site, on a cash rate with free cancellation, Prizotel does NOT count for status nights and it does NOT earn points. Invoice shows VIP status but statement shows as non qualifying stay. It is not shown in the program T&C's despite appearing all over the website.

Value for money or Gold Points? Would you return?
Good value on cash at 68 euro/night compared to paying 130+ in what was the outdated Hilton nearby (now reflagged as a Dornit) The new Motel One might a better option
