A friend of bellinghwoman was there at a company do, some months ago. The hotel's cleaners were moving through the seating area picking up rubbish and putting it into bin bags. Various women's handbags disappeared during this process.
When the management were then asked to ensure that clear rubbish bags be issued, so that such 'mistaken collectiosn' would be minimised, management refused.
A couple of years ago, another person we know was there at a union conference. The report afterwards was that every credit card that went across the bar got skimmed.
You don't get to be running a hotel whose burglary count is four times that of every other hotel in the city combined unless you have a place with a criminal culture.
(Not unless you are bigger than all the other hotels combined. Yes, the Adelphi is big, but not that big. Not by a very long way.)
I have heard of thefts in other hotels I've stayed in. But I've heard of more thefts in the Adelphi that in all the other hotels I've been in, combined, by a long way. At least one person on this FList has been stolen from in there.
It's a shame, because it's an ideally situated place, and the lobby area is to die for. If not for the crime problem, I'd be recommending it. (OK, parking is not wonderful. And the late night disco is something to make sure your room isn't directly above. But solve that crime, and I'd be recommending it.)
