The state of the Merlin parks and hotels has been in a state of managed decline for years. Each time I've visited the state of operations has been worse than the previous season, more and more things have been obviously broken or deteriorated, presentations and general standards are poor, we have staff that don't seem to know or care what they're doing, hotels that don't offer anything close to a premium product, food that is overpriced and barely edible... I could go on.
Last year we got new senior management across the parks and hotels. This year we were promised the best season ever and there was a new found sense of optimism that maybe we'd start to see a corner being turned.
As we now get to the back end of the season, I ask the question... is Merlin actually rotten to the core? Can it actually be saved? The park, hotel, standards, food and operations are worse than ever and the new management team seem incapable of steering the ship away from the impending iceberg.
