The Olympic Games are ongoing in Paris, attracting athletes from around the world and famous personalities to the French capital.

Unexpectedly, a post appeared on Serena's account, accompanied by a photo of a sign with the hotel's name. It turns out that the restaurant within the Parisian establishment refused to accommodate her and her children. The tennis player did not hide her disappointment and commented on the situation rather bitingly.

Yikes – she began, tagging the hotel. I’ve been denied access to rooftop to eat in a empty restaurant of nicer places but never with my kids. Always a first.

Her post caused a great deal of emotion, and internet users quickly commented. Many were surprised that the establishment refused the tennis player and her children. Soon, a response from the hotel owners appeared, who hurried to offer an official apology.

Dear Mrs. Williams, Please accept our deepest apologies for the disappointment you encountered tonight. Unfortunately, our rooftop bar was indeed fully booked and the only unoccupied tables you saw belonged to our gourmet restaurant, L’Oiseau Blanc, which was fully reserved.
