Terrible experience

I booked the room at the hotel Napoleon based on the reviews and photos of their amenities. The hotel was basic at best. They advertised for things that they didn't offer. The carpets were musty/dirty and the furniture was so scratched up. There was a photo of a restaurant which didn't exist, a bar area which didn't exist, and a $15 breakfast special that didn't exist!!! The front desk guy was on his phone whenever we entered the lobby area and only spoke when I got a soda. As if I were about to rob him the way that I was robbed. All of the photos need to be taken down! The rooms were just average and we paid $171 for absolutely nothing!

We booked Hotel Napoleon after a last minute decision to stop in Memphis. This boutique hotel is both aesthetically and practically appealing. Check in was seamless as they had our room awaiting our arrival, the amenities were plentiful and we even found a fun little welcome bag upon entering the room. A huge surprise when we found our room serviced after a day of sightseeing, most of which was walkable from the hotel. As frequent travelers, this is not something we often count on these days. Parking is simple in the garage directly attached to the hotel, in and out privileges even allowed. We truly enjoyed our brief stay and hope to be back someday.

It’s a cool looking hotel, and the price isn’t bad. But it’s also not perfect by any stretch. After a nine hour drive to get there, the guy working the front desk trash talked our home city (he apparently grew up one town over). Some of our towels were not clean, which became more of a problem when housekeeping never came by our room the next day. Then, when I called the front desk for replacement towels, there was only one guy working the desk and no other employees, so he couldn’t leave to bring us any. And the walls are VERY thin. When the people one room over started smoking weed, we smelled it immediately. When they started having sex, we could hear everything. So, they were having a better time than we were. Also, our room’s AC didn’t work so it was hot as hell. Again, cool looking place, and maybe we were the victims of circumstance more than a bad hotel. But it was not ideal.

All good, except for the parking! The hotel advertises “covered parking”!! The hotel does not have parking! The hotel happens to be directly adjacent to regular street parking that the general population uses (too)! It is not convenient and it is a “trick” by the hotel owner/staff to say that the hotel has parking! The concierge had his tail between his legs when asked about this situation, basically admitting “we” have had many complaints about our parking situation!? Also, there isn’t any ice to be found in this hotel (either)! Which I found odd! The front desk man did offer to have the concierge go and get me ice?! I umm, just said no, that is silly! Little things? Maybe, but those little things add up! Last item. Hopefully, when “you” check in, you’re the only person checking in?? Why? Because there is only one person at the desk, or at least for the time I was there, there was only one person at the desk? It really slows the checking in process! No breakfast and stale or leftover sweets on a very small mantle piece in the lobby! Not what anyone would expect at any type of “starred” hotel! But room was nice, if that helps?

My experience with Hotel Napoleon was unfortunately tainted by a frustrating issue with my booking. Due to a mix-up between Expedia and the hotel, I was forced to pay twice for my stay with the expectation of receiving a refund for one of the charges. The hotel staff personally assured me that I would be reimbursed after making the second payment, but weeks later, after multiple back-and-forth conversations with Expedia, I was told that the hotel’s manager had declined my refund request. It wasn’t until Expedia reviewed the audio recording from the night of my check-in that I finally received my money back—without an apology from either Expedia or Hotel Napoleon. The most concerning part is that if I hadn’t been persistent, I would have been charged twice with no recourse. Neither the hotel nor Expedia seemed to care about resolving the issue until I pushed for proof. If you choose to stay here, keep track of all your conversations and records—they may be the only thing preventing you from being unfairly charged. I can’t recommend a hotel that fails to uphold its word and offers such poor customer service.
