Here is my most recent direct incident. Please note I gave the hotel ample opportunity to address what should’ve been seen as a high priority. Lissy promised to call back and did not. I will be heard & this should’ve been addressed in a timely manner.
Individuals involved:
• Mariam (Front Desk) – openly mocked and laughed at the only Black woman entering the hotel at that time.
• Another front desk staff member – joined in this behavior.
• Lissy (Manager) – informed of the incident, confirmed that staff had made comments about me, stated she would review the footage, and promised to follow up.
On Wednesday around noon, I entered this hotel to meet a friend for a martini in the lounge. Before my guest arrived, I was subjected to open ridicule from the front desk staff, led by Mariam. I was polite, respectful, and appropriately dressed, yet laughed at and treated with clear disrespect. Other white women entering the same space were greeted warmly. And this wasn’t just one thing that happened. There were multiple things that happened with Miriam and the other Front Desk person but of course I cannot fully capture everything in this review. However, I shared every detail with Lissy when I called.
When I called later that day, Manager Lissy acknowledged that staff had indeed made comments about me and said she would investigate. As of Friday morning, there has been no call, no apology, and no indication of any corrective action.
As a Black woman and a resident of this neighborhood, I made it clear that I will not be made to feel unwelcome in my own community. I have given this establishment every opportunity to address what happened. Since management has chosen silence, I am now making others aware both online and in person of how this hotel allows its staff to treat Black patrons.
Please note the review I wrote a little less than a month ago complementing the martini at the restaurant because it’s become my favorite and that is what kicked off this whole incident.
Apparently in the eyes of the discriminatory staff at Fouquet’s Black women aren’t supposed to be ladies who lunch after our workout class.
I will decide how much further to take this based on their continued inactionShow More
