COMPLAINT MANAGEMENT POLICY & SUBMISSION PROCEDURE

Purpose and Objective

The Akrothea Hotel is committed to continuously improving the quality of service it provides to its guests. Effective complaint management is essential for delivering high-quality services and serves as a vital tool for identifying weaknesses in policies and procedures based on guest feedback.

To this end, the hotel has established and developed a Complaint Management Policy with clear guidelines on how complaints are received and handled. The implementation of this policy ensures that all submitted complaints are dealt with fairly, promptly, efficiently, and with confidentiality.


Policy Statement

The hotel is committed to ensuring that complaint management is immediate and fair by guaranteeing that:

• Each complaint is thoroughly examined and handled with care.
• Fair treatment is provided to all individuals involved in the complaint.
• No charges are incurred for submitting a complaint.
• Personal data protection is maintained in accordance with European Union regulations and the Personal Data Protection Law.
• Complaints are recorded and analyzed periodically to identify and resolve procedural issues and prevent recurring errors.
• Individuals directly involved in a complaint or responsible for handling complaints will not participate in the investigation if a conflict of interest exists.
• Hotel staff receive continuous training and have direct access to the complaint management policy to ensure effective handling.
• All hotel staff acknowledge the guests’ right to submit complaints and are dedicated to resolving any issues fairly and efficiently.


Policy Review

The complaint management system outlined in this policy, along with internal procedures, will be reviewed at least annually to ensure ongoing transparency, efficiency, and the highest possible level of guest satisfaction.
