    Why?
    Why can you be confident?
    Lots of opinions on here.... None of which have been backed with a shred of evidence!

    Exactly like your confidence that the hotel must have deteriorated really, not a shred of evidence but you still insist it has, Or should that be 'will' in May 2015?.
    Accept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear

    I think we can safely say there will be a deterioration at some time prior to May 2015 - in the overall quality of guests turning up at check in (unless of course the OP manages to get a transfer to some other accommodation more suited in which case there will be no change at all)

    OP have you read lea2012's posts? She has provided a thorough explanation of the branding change. Or are you ignoring her posts because a) you're intentionally being difficult and b) all you are really interested in is getting some money back?

    "While the OP comes across as a serial complainer and not a very pleasant person in general,"

    You sound a very trusting person. Good on ya. Wanna buy shares in London bridge?

    No thanks - we have something far better, bookends made from the real thing :beer:

    I can see why the OP feels the need for compensation.
    All her friends and family know she is an "A la Carte type person"
    Imagine the shame and embarrassment if they discover she's gone on an ordinary holiday without those prestigious A la Carte baggage tags. This could be social ruin.
    Only the socially clueless don't know that content is nothing and the label on a product is everything after all.

    No she hasn't!
    She booked a holiday and paid a price.....she then booked again.
    I've booked a holiday and it's changed before I even got there. Hardly the same!

    But it's not changing until May 2015 and you go 4 months prior to the change

    The holiday price for your week/s may now be 600 cheaper, but who knows, it could be 600 dearer before you go. Would you pay the extra if the price increased.

    So in May, this hotel is suddenly going to undergo a change that will cause it to be instantly downgraded to a lower level. But until then, it's champion!
    Do you honestly believe that?

    I gave you a feasible example of exactly why that could happen, you chose to ignore that.

    Once again because you seem to have difficulty comprehending, just because a tour operator changes the brochure it chooses to put a hotel in does not mean anything has changed at the hotel. Do you think ALL the tour operators who ship people into that hotel have changed which brochure they put it in too?

    And if it were something drastic that has already happened why haven't they changed the brochure with immediate effect, why do you think they are waiting until May?

    Just to clarify....Are you suggesting I give up?
