How to Complain to St. Regis

St. Regis is Marriott's luxury hotel brand. Common complaints include surprise fees added at check-in, post-checkout charges, rooms that don't match the booking, and refused refunds. Put your complaint in writing to both the property and corporate guest relations.

Quick answer

Best way to contact St. Regis

Official complaint form

Put your complaint in writing — it creates a record St. Regis has to answer. Useful channels:

The hotel's front desk and duty manager — raise it before you check out if you can
The brand's central guest-relations / customer-care form on its official website
The loyalty programme support line (Bonvoy, Honors, World of Hyatt, etc.)
Email or postal mail to the property and the brand's corporate guest relations
A public review or social post often prompts a faster corporate response
Your credit-card issuer for a chargeback on charges that were never authorized

What to include in your complaint

The stronger your documentation, the harder it is for St. Regis to dismiss your claim. Include:

Reservation confirmation number and the rate you booked

Check-in / check-out dates and the room type promised vs. provided

The full folio / final bill showing every line item and fee

Photos of the room condition or anything not as described

Screenshots of the listing, rate, or fee disclosure at the time of booking

The exact amount you want refunded and your preferred resolution

Step-by-step: how to complain to St. Regis

Gather your evidence

Collect your booking or confirmation number, dates, the amount in dispute, receipts, photos or screenshots, and a short timeline of what went wrong. Strong documentation is what turns your hotel complaint from "your word against theirs" into a claim they have to take seriously.

Send a written complaint

Submit a clear, dated complaint in writing through the hotel's front desk in writing and the brand's corporate guest-relations form. State what happened, the law or policy that applies, the exact resolution you want (refund, compensation, or reversal), and a reasonable deadline to respond. Keep a copy.

Give them a reasonable deadline

Allow a defined window — typically 14 to 30 days — for a written reply. A deadline in your letter creates a paper trail and removes the "we never received it" excuse.

Escalate internally

If you get no reply or a brush-off, escalate to the customer relations or executive office and reference your original complaint and deadline. Restate your requested resolution and note that you are prepared to take it further.

Escalate externally

Still unresolved? File with your consumer-protection regulator or credit-card issuer, and consider a credit-card chargeback if you paid by card. These external routes are free and put real pressure on the company.

Common reasons people complain about St. Regis

Unauthorized charge after checkout
Resort or facility fee not disclosed at booking
Room not as described or advertised
Loyalty points not credited or wrongly deducted
Refund refused for a cancelled reservation
Double-charged for the stay

Your rights and possible remedies

You are entitled to be charged only what was clearly disclosed before booking. Undisclosed resort, destination, or facility fees may breach deceptive-pricing rules; charges added after checkout, double charges, and rooms materially different from the listing are all disputable. Remedies include a refund of improper charges, a rate adjustment, loyalty-point restoration, or a chargeback.

Laws that may apply

· FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45
· FTC rule on hotel fee disclosure
· State consumer protection laws
· Consumer Protection Act (Canada)

Frequently asked questions

How do I complain to St. Regis?

Put your complaint to St. Regis in writing — through its official complaint form, customer-relations email, or a letter — rather than only by phone. State what happened, the resolution you want, and a deadline to respond. A written complaint citing FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45 creates a record St. Regis has to answer.

Can I get my money back from St. Regis?

Often, yes. Under FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 45 you have rights when St. Regis wrongly charges you or refuses a refund you're owed. A formal written request is your most effective tool; if St. Regis refuses, you can escalate to Federal Trade Commission (FTC) or dispute the charge with your credit-card issuer.

What should I do if St. Regis ignores my complaint?

If St. Regis misses your deadline or brushes you off, escalate in writing to its customer-relations or executive office, file a complaint with Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and consider a credit-card chargeback or small claims court for the amount owed.

Can I ask St. Regis for compensation?

Yes — where you've suffered a loss St. Regis is responsible for, you can request compensation, a refund, or a credit. Be specific about the amount and attach evidence (receipts, photos, a timeline). Vague requests get vague answers; a precise, documented claim gets results.

Can I dispute a St. Regis charge with my credit card?

If you paid by card and St. Regis charged you for something you didn't authorize, didn't receive, or that wasn't as described, a chargeback through your card issuer is often the fastest route. Keep your written complaint and St. Regis's response as evidence for the dispute.

How long does St. Regis take to respond to a complaint?

Response times vary, but you should set your own reasonable deadline — typically 14 to 30 days — in your written complaint. If St. Regis doesn't reply in that window, that itself becomes grounds to escalate to Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
