Meridian Suites Temporary Closure

We have booked the Meridian Suites for November 4th to 8th through Expedia. If anyone has an update on the closure I would really appreciate hearing about it

Meridian Suites Temporary Closure

why not contact meridian suites directly? anything posted here is second-hand at best - is that what you want to rely on? They have a website and contact info.

Thanks for the info. i guess we%26#39;ll have to hope for the best

Why would you want to%26#39;just hope for the best%26#39; when you can call and ask? Makes no sense...

I had a reservation for September. As soon as I read on the hotel%26#39;s review the latest report about it%26#39;s closure, I called the hotel directly.

1) They won%26#39;t likely get their licence back until January 2009.

2) They are calling all their reservations (those for 2008 at least) to inform them that they won%26#39;t be honoring their reservations - but they make the calls in calendar order. So I wasn%26#39;t getting the call yet since I was a few weeks away. I guess if you%26#39;re in November, you would%26#39;ve waited a couple of weeks to get the call.

3)It seems, as some reviewers stated, that they were offered a stay elsewhere at the same rate, but that was a temporary measure for those cancelled on very short notice (it%26#39;s a nice thing for them to care). But for those warned ahead, they won%26#39;t get you a booking elsewhere.

4) The person on the phone processed the refund of my deposit right away and it was, in fact, credited few days later - so no they are not out of funds. In your case, since you booked thru Expedia, you have to contact Expedia for a refund - since you%26#39;ve paid your stay in full with them, the hotel didn%26#39;t get your money yet.

From what I understand, the way Expedia works is that they have a block of rooms in the hotels they book and they manage the guests listings - not the hotel. The hotels receive the name of the guests only some short time before arrival due (I was told 24-48 hrs), until then, the reservation are under ';Expedia'; name.

In your case, calling the hotel would get you the latest as to if they can honor reservations for November, but for cancellation and refund, only Expedia can handle that.
