This hotel has been our go- to hotel for numerous years. I believe that almost all of our vacations have included at minimum, shabbat at the Leonardo. As a matter of fact, in the past I have left raving reviews, particularly regarding Ronit and her staff.
Imagine our disappointment and dismay when our daughter relayed the rude , obnoxious service of the staff during her stay. This was a surprise gift for her and she was delighted at the opportunity to stay here.
Particularly disturbing was the treatment she received by the maitre d' for the Friday night shabbat meal. She was yelled at and humiliated in public when asked to be seated.
Note, that she inquired about the protocol at check- in on Friday, and was told that all she had to do was provide her room number and she would be good to go.
She was also yelled at for holding a pizza box in the lobby. Note that she was not eating the pizza and was waiting for friends,
Suffice to say, I am mortified by this bullying treatment . Honestly, disappointed beyond words......
