Title: Severe privacy violation – male staff ignored Do Not Disturb sign and refused to leave while guest was naked in shower
We recently stayed in a suite at this 5-star hotel, expecting the highest level of service, privacy, and respect. What we experienced was deeply disturbing, and I feel a responsibility to warn other guests – especially couples and women traveling.
When this incident occurred, our Do Not Disturb light was actively on – a red light displayed outside our door, clearly signaling that no one should enter. The hotel has since confirmed themselves that the light was indeed on at the time. Despite this, two members of the cleaning staff chose to enter our suite anyway.
One of them was a man. At the time, my partner was completely naked in the shower. We immediately told them to leave. They did not. We had to shout at them – repeatedly, at least five times – before the male staff member finally left the room. By that point, we are certain that both of them had seen my partner naked and exposed.
This is not a misunderstanding or an accident. The Do Not Disturb signal was active and visible. The hotel has acknowledged this. There is no excuse. Entering a guest’s room under these circumstances is a deliberate disregard for guest privacy, safety, and basic human dignity.
My partner is now scared and deeply shaken by what happened. No guest should ever feel unsafe or violated in their own hotel room – least of all in a suite at a property carrying 5 stars.
