Fire alarms blocked with beer mats, fire-hazard electrics and crumbling walls at real-life Fawlty Towers
Fiorenzo Cazari Hotel was closed on the spot after inspectors found the shoddy electrical wiring could spark a huge blaze
FROM crumbling bedroom walls and blocked sinks to fire-hazard electrical sockets and filthy showers, these grim pictures reveal the inside of a grotty hotel dubbed the ‘worst in Britain’.
Fiorenzo Cazari Hotel in North Wales has been branded a ‘dangerous slum’ by visitors who were shocked to discover its dodgy electrics, battered security doors and soiled carpets.
The real-life Fawlty Towers has now been forced to close on the spot after inspectors said guests could be electrocuted by the building’s shoddy wiring.
Guests will not be allowed to stay at the hotel until owners carry out the required safety work needed to bring it up to an acceptable standard, in what has been dubbed the latest in a string of blows to its credentials.
The hotel has awful ratings on TripAdvisor, with previous customers calling it “a slum” and describing it as “beyond my worst nightmare”.
The hotel has 79 reviews on the travel website, 65 of which rate the hotel as “terrible”.
One TripAdvisor reviewer wrote: “This hotel is dangerous, fire alarms blocked off with beer mats, trailing wires across doorway.”
Another said: “This is hardly a hotel more like a slum booked it through hotels.com could not sleep here as absolutely filthy.
“I am well-travelled and this has to win hands down for being the worst hotel I have ever entered.
“If it was free for the night I would rather sleep in a doorway.”
Dave Roberts, business fire safety compliance manager for Conwy and Denbighshire, North Wales Fire and Rescue Service, said inspectors found “significant fire risk”, and were forced to serve a prohibition notice “preventing the use of two of the spaces in the property”.
He told the Daily Post: “When business owners put their staff and guests at risk of harm from fire and fail to improve their safety standards, it is our duty to work with partners to intervene to ensure the highest levels of safety for the public.”
