Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious with a wonderful spring bed, and I even had an automatic shower curtain overlooking the bedroom. The service could have been better as the reception desk didn't seem to understand customer service well, but the value for the price paid was great. The location was superb, being in the center of Bangalore and close to the main attractions. The dining experience was delightful with Indian specialties at throw-away prices. Overall, a fantastic stay with some minor service issues.
The hotel is centrally located in Bangalore, making it easy to explore the city's attractions and nearby markets. The rooms are well-maintained with modern facilities and a comfortable king-size bed, although the service was inconsistent at times. Dining options offer a mix of European and Indian specialties, enhancing the overall stay experience with convenience.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were equipped with all modern amenities, but some had see-through glass to the bedrooms, which was not ideal. The top-floor location offered nice views. The service varied from polite and prompt to lacking basic customer service skills. The central location made transportation easily accessible, but some staff members were not knowledgeable about extending stays. The dining options catered to Indian specialties, but the menu lacked variety. Overall, a decent stay with both positive and negative aspects.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel with its great location near the main attractions in Bangalore and comfortable rooms. The hospitality was top-notch, but the limited information provided by the staff about extending my stay was a bit concerning. The dining options were varied and satisfying, making it a good value for the money.
