Hotel berhampiran Parroquia Santo Domingo de Guzman di Asuncion

Excellent

Cuando hablo de atención al cliente en mis clases o mis consultorías, me refiero a estas cosas Comienzo por decirte que me hospedé en Asunción desde el 4 al 6 de abril El dia 5 fui a desayunar y dentro de las opciones disponible había un plato que me llamó la atención: unas albondigas. Las probé y realmente estaban exquisitas (se parecían a las que me hacía mi madre cuando era pequeño, hoy tengo 66 años ya). Cuando se acabaron una señorita se encargó de reemplazarlas por otra fuente y cuando pasé junto a ella cuando lo hacía, la felicité por el sabor y la calidad de las albóndigas. Lo cual agradeció. Al día siguiente me volví a dirigir a desayunar deseoso de seguir degustando las albóndigas pero para mi sorpresa no había (el hotel cambia el menú periódicamente). De todos modos todo el desayuno estuvo exquisito, claro. Cuando me retiré, al pasar por el lobby, estaba la señorita del dia anterior junto con la recepcionista y le comenté que no había podido repetir las albóndigas porque no estaban disponibles. Ella se excusó y me explicó lo de la rotación del menú y me dijo, con una sonrisa, que seguramente en mi próxima estadía podría volver a comerlas. Salí a hacer mis cosas y volví para almorzar en el hotel previo a mi check out. Elegí un plato para hacerlo. Estaba almorzando cuando se me acerca el mesero con un plato y con una sonrisa me dice ”Señor, esto es cortesía del hotel y de la chef”. Agradecí y miré de qué se trataba no sin cierta sorpresa, dado que tampoco soy cliente habitual como para merecer esa atención. ¿Qué había en el plato?: Sí, mis albondigas!!! La señorita que he mencionado en varias oportunidades, era la chef de nombre GUADALUPE AGUILAR, quien con una sonrisa me miraba detrás de la barra y luego volvió a sus quehaceres. ¡Me quedé con la boca abierta!!! Felicito a Guadalupe por su gesto, felicito al Hotel por confiar en personas como ella. No tengas dudas que esa experiencia la comentaré en todos los ámbitos en los que tenga oportunidad, ya sea en mi círculo de conocidos, en mis clases de la universidad, en mis conferencias, en charlas con mis clientes y seguramente también en mi blog como un gran ejemplo de lo que significa la atención al cliente. Si en el mundo hubiera muchas más personas como Guadalupe Aguilar, no tengo dudas que sería un mejor lugar para vivir. Me parece que es una historia que merece llegar a tus oídos. Porque no es casual que la gente tenga esa actitud. Alguien le seleccionó, alguien quizás le habló sobre cómo lograr sacarle una sonrisa al corazón del cliente y todos merecen mi reconocimiento y felicitaciones. es el correo que le envié al Gerente General del Hotel Aloft de Asunción del Paraguay por una experiencia que tuve en el hotel fue una experiencia increíble, y eso que uno se llena la boca hablando de esto.. pero vivirlo (y recibirlo) es distinto

Let me start with the pros about this hotel. It is in a very good and secure location near restaurants and shopping. The rooms are spacious and clean and the beds are very comfortable. The staff is friendly and accommodating. There is a nice swimming pool on the top floor and a fairly well-equipped gym as well. There is a spa where you can get a good massage for a reasonable price. The hotel restaurant, Tacuare’e, serves excellent food and the service is top notch. The breakfasts have a fairly good selection of food, but it literally never changes. It is the same thing every day. It would have been nice to have a change since we were there for three weeks. The coffee is awful and you are charged extra for cappuccino, etc. Now let me talk a little about some of the cons. This is what I would call a minimalist hotel and I really should write minimalist in capital letters. The lobby is plain and boring and the rest of the hotel follows its example. The walls are white and literally devoid of any color or decorations of any kind – no pictures, nothing. That goes for the rooms as well. There is nowhere comfortable to sit in the lobby either. They have what looks like oversized mattresses that rest on the floor and are up against the wall, but there are no back rests. They look cheap and believe me, they are uncomfortable. Speaking of uncomfortable, the rooms have very little in the way of furniture – a small desk with a chair and another chair that is not only hard, but extremely uncomfortable. The closets are small with very little shelf space and there were only 4 clothes hangers. There were no drawers to store clothing. There was nowhere to place luggage and we came with a lot. Although the bathroom was clean, it smelled. It was the first thing we noticed each time we came into our room. Although the hotel tries to be accommodating, it needs significant improvement. We often had to ask multiple times for things we needed before they finally appeared in our room: extra hangers, something to put our luggage on, etc. Housekeeping was often slow and our room was not cleaned two times during our stay. And finally, according to the rules for 4-star hotels, one bottle of water per guest should be provided free of charge. The only water was in the minibar and we were charged for it. Although we enjoyed our stay at the hotel, we probably won’t be going back. There are other more attractive options in the area.

We spent two days here after a week in the countryside. We were recognized as Spire Elite and upgraded to #601 as I requested because it has a view of the river. The room was spotless, comfy bed, large tub with a walk in shower. Huge selection of channels on the tv. Large swimming pool on five. The water was cold but clean. The club lounge is closed so breakfast was in the street level lounge as well as happy hour. Few guest because of the quarantine. Aureliano checked us in and the other ladies at reception were always helpful, I would recommend this hotel to anyone and we will stay here again when return. They take Coveid precautions serious.

Hotel muy elegante que se nota que supo ser un gran 5 estrellas en años anteriores. Los baños en el lobby impecables, desayuno abundante, las piezas muy amplias. El edificio al ser antiguo, sus instalaciones también lo son. El patio muy lindo para disfrutar y una cancha de tenis. Los ascensores se cierran o se bloquean mientras la personas está entrando/saliendo. Algo ajeno al hotel, es la zona, es el centro viejo que lamentablemente perdió su encanto y resulta peligroso el lugar. Las alfombras de la entrada y lobby necesitan ser cambiados pero realmente es una maravilla.

I booked two nights for my wife and I and her brother with his wife and two teenage children. This was ”the” hotel in the 60's and nothing much seemed to have changed. The room fridge was barely cooling and no posted prices on the fridge. The rooms are oddly layed out and the view was through large outside shutters which are needed for the intense sunlight. Air conditioning was good once housekeeping set it for me! TV adequate. Bath shower with nice tolietries. Room was spotless but dated. Bed was comfy. the pool on the third floor is very large, unheated but dangerous. All pre ADA stuff non existent. Water was clean. Everyone had a great time. There was also a very large amount of deck chairs and a great view of the park. This hotel is c the best location in downtown Asuncion. Food servive avaiable poolside at reasonable prices. Breakfast buffet was very good with lots of fresh fruit. I ordered fried eggs and was charged about 50 cents each! The hotel staff was very friendly. Our 13 year old nephew was in heaven because soccer teams also stay here. Underground parking was an experience. We will stay here again on our return trip to Paraguay andenjoy the pool weather permitting.

El hotel queda en el corazón de Villa Morra rodeado del mejor shopping de la zona, sin embargo no invade la actividad para un bien descanso, salvo que en mi caso la habitación era bien pequeña y una de las paredes era un ventanal de pared a pared y aunque tenía cortina molestaba la claridad, por lo demás es el hotel ideal si uno va a hacer negocios o de turismo en Asunción. Buen wifi, tiene un Juan Valdez al lado del lobby, su bar a la noche y desayuno son en la tarraza con hermosas vistas y lindo fresco, también ahi está una piscina pero el area es pequeña. Delicioso y completo desayuno, reducida pero buenas opciones en la carta de su bar, sus tragos muy buenos y la picada que probé me encantó a precios bien razonables también. Super recomendado. Ese tema de la claridad le bajó 1 estrella, por lo demás excelente.

The Palmaroga Hotel is my favorite hotel in downtown Asuncion. The historic building has been beautifully restored, the rooms are elegant and comfortable, the rooftop terrace with its poo and view is wonderful, and most importantly the staff are exceptional. The people who work at reception and at the door are always ready to greet guests warmly and to provide friendly and authentic service. The hotel has a good restaurant on site, a steakhouse next door, and is walking distance from many other excellent dining options. Within walking distance to all major points of interest in the downtown area. 10 puntos!

Our stay at Sheraton started on the wrong foot although it might not have been the hotel’s fault. My Marriott Suite Night Award request was approved but when we arrived at the hotel we were told that suites were fully booked and they had no idea why my SNAs went through. So we stayed in a club room for the first night but were moved to the presidential suite on the second night and which was highly appreciated. The first room was an old generation Sheraton room: rough carpet, shower in tub, subpar soundproofing, toiletries were unbranded local stuff, also the bathroom door did not close properly and there was no lock. One positive was that the bed was unmistakably a Sheraton bed = comfortable. The presidential suite was equivalent to 4 normal rooms in terms of size according to the floor plan. It was still a fairly aging room but with the extra space it was very useful to us including our 18-month daughter who was very happy and could run around. Service was quite good during our stay with various staff members addressing us by name which is not that common at a hotel of Sheraton level which is not supposed to be considered luxury like Ritz Carlton or St.Regis. One manager was quite visible during our stay, she welcomed us at check-in, she was greeting guests in the restaurant for breakfast in the morning, same during happy hour in the lounge, and she also stopped by before our departure when we checked out. I also received an e-mail after our stay to inform us that they found one item in the room and asked if we wanted to send someone to pick it up. Most hotels don’t even bother with a “lost and found” service so kudos to Sheraton Asuncion. Regarding dining, happy hour in the lounge and breakfast in the restaurant were above average, and the in-room dining menu and prices were quite good relative to what we could find in the city including in the large shopping mall next door. I also noted that wifi was blazing fast at 350+ Mbps, one of the best I have seen anywhere in the world – not the kind of hotel where I would have guessed this to be the case. Overall this is not a new and modern hotel but when judging a hotel I always compare to the local competition. The other choices I noticed are an Aloft, an Ibis, a Holiday Inn Express, and a Crowne Plaza. Except for the latter I don’t think there are any other international hotel chains remotely close to the level of Sheraton and given the good service and dining, as Marriott Bonvoy Elite I would return to Sheraton.
