Hidden Costs at The Peabody!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/27/06
Our recent stay at The Peabody was much less than what we hoped for from the four diamond ratings of the hotel. The lobby was very nice and the pool/hot tub is excellent. The rooms were good and clean but not anywhere worth what they charge for them (nice beds but no fridge, no microwave, medium size TV, regular tub/shower, etc.). Many conveniences were available... At An Additional Cost !! The exercise room was $10/day for guests, they charged for shade at the pool (cabana rental), there is an internet fee of $8/day (even if you don't use it) that they surprise you with when you check out, etc. In summary, great pool, nice lobby, good service, good location, an average room w/o fridge/microwave, and overpriced with additional costs all over the place.
