RMT General Secretary Mick Cash said: “The Adelphi is supposed to be one of Britain’s premier hotels, yet its hard-working staff are on appalling pay and conditions.
 
“Britannia Hotels can hardly plead poverty, but for too long they have treated their staff as expendable, with rock-bottom wages, no sick pay scheme and the imposition of insecure zero-hours contracts on the very people they rely on to make their profits.
 
“It is a source of shame that a hotel chain that rakes in millions should seek to exploit any and every means to squeeze ever more out of its staff.

Adelphi Hotel is an iconic building close to the beautiful Albert Dock and City Centre , however the interior ,leaves a lot to be desired, my room on the 6th floor had a lovely view down the main route to the Docks and an even loser view of the Radio Tower, the accommodation in the room however consisted of two single beds pushed together sharing a double bed headboard you could not move them apart, one side table, one lamp no ceiling light so dark when you first entered the room, a lamp on the very dusty dressing table, did not work so one lamp and the bathroom light where the only allumination, over all needed a good lean and updating, unfortunately I cannot recommend the evening meal or breakfast, little choice and what there was didnt look very appetising, a choice of 2 green vegetables at dinner, soggy roast potatoes and the potato dauphine solid, breakfast disgusting sausage, fried bacon, tinned mushrooms, tasteless scrambled eggs, I am not a pinnicky eater but I do like my food cooked correctly, and looking appetising, sorry Adelphi I cannot recommend.......

Room Tip: I was on 6th floor front, and it was noisy, no double glazing in hotel

For a room for a night or two - I have stayed at the Adelphi and would stay there again.   However, I would be very careful which of my friends I recommended it to.

A score of zero really ought to be a "close kitchen" notice until such time they can achieve at least a "4"

 

Not a reflection on the hotel really - I tend not to eat in when traveling alone on business, preferring a sandwich, a take away or a fast food place ... my patience is not what it should be and (as happened on Saturday) if I have to wait 20 minutes (for a ploughman's lunch!) I feel it's about 16 minutes too long.

Train back to Bristol after the event had some engineering related diversions and I went via Lincoln...?

I'm not sure about England, but in Wales it is a legal requirement to display your food hygiene score on the door of your establishment - a jolly good thing if you ask me!
