A "luxury" brand with zero accountability: no response from Kempinski corporate
I trusted the Kempinski brand to stand for service, excellence, and integrity. Sadly, my experience says otherwise. Following a deeply disappointing stay at one of their flagship properties — Kempinski Hotel The Dome, Belek — I submitted a detailed formal complaint directly to Kempinski AG’s corporate office. The issues I raised were serious: clear signs of neglect across the hotel, safety concerns, poor guest treatment, and an alarming incident involving a taxi arranged through the hotel’s front desk. All my concerns were supported by photo and video documentation. What’s most astonishing? Kempinski AG never even acknowledged my complaint. No reply. No apology. No basic courtesy. I followed up via email, fax, voicemail: nothing. Not even a confirmation of receipt. I only recevied an unrequested and unsigned email from the hotel, traying to subtly imtimidate and discourage me from sustaining any claim. With no other option, I have now initiated legal action, both in Italy and with Turkish consumer authorities. Kempinski’s corporate silence speaks volumes about how little they care once your credit card has been charged. This kind of behavior is simply unacceptable from a group that markets itself as a symbol of European hospitality and refinement. Accountability is not optional, especially when things go wrong. Let’s see if this public post finally gets them to say something, anything.
