Hotel closed and boarded up

When we arrived to check in we found the hotel closed and a brick through the window. We were left having to book a second hotel at our expense. Still looking to receive a refund for our booking.

Don't Book it's closed.

Hotel is closed but still taking bookings & money. Arrived at the hotel to find the reception in darkness & unmanned. I came back 2 hrs later & still no receptionist however a workman appeared & told me that the hotel was closed. I asked for the manager & when he arrived I explained that I had 2 nights booked & paid for, he just told me to contact Hotels .Com for a refund. Thanks for ruining my easter weekend.

Tried in vain to contact hotel to advise late arrival ignored emails when we did eventually get through on phone apparently no English was understood which seemed pointless so we missed booking in also when we went for 2nd day of stay we were told our room had been re sold and they had no room for us. Still they did not respond to the numerous emails sent the day before
