This is probably among the bigger hotels here. Double room with AC was quite spacious. Space outside the room is also quite open. In a way, this is a nice change from those hotels where you come out of a room into a narrow corridor. But then this also means that the hotel becomes quite noisy when there is a conference or meeting going on on the 4th floor and when there are many people coming in and going out. The dining area (The family restaurant) is okay and seems better in the day when sunlight can come into the room. Food is overall good, except few north indian vegetables on the menu. Food here is extremely spicy for people who may not be used to such level of chillies! Hence, every time we ordered food, we had to specify that we want it to be less spicy. Staff is very helpful and nice. The place would be much better if they maintained it well and if there could be better ventilation. You can often smell food from kitchen when you are outside the room! There is good enough parking space. You can also get autos and taxis within 5 minutes of walking distance. TV has very limited channels. Free wifi is there but it kept disconnecting and speed...
Read moreI stayed in this hotel on 2nd jan. Drove down from Hyderabad and reached very late in the night around 12.30 in the night. At that time in the night wanted a clean room and clean ambience and wanted to go to sleep. ||Got into the room. The corridor was reeking of the smell coming from the kitchen which was very unpleasant. Had to wait for 15-20 min in the night to get a bottle of water and a a towel. The room was not lit properly and water in the bathroom was a trickle. ||Any way, adjusted and went to sleep. Got up in the morning and checked the bathroom. It was shabby. The water in the basin was a trickle an extremely cold. Checked with the reception and was told 'drain away 3-4 buckets of water and then u vl get the hot water'. Had to shave with cold water. By the time, hot water came, I went to take a shower and again water was trickle. ||Went to hv breakfast and it was equally pathetic. Tables were dirty, waiters were non responsive, asked for X but got Y and was also handed over a bill for the same. ||Overall a...
Read moreThe earlier reviewer who said that the entire hotel smells of dosas was not far off the mark. Actually the hotel smells of whatever is the most-ordered breakfast item, whether dosas or poori-bhaji! ||It is grand in size but for what appears to be a relatively newly constructed building it is maintained shabbily. The place is dusty and rather a den of mosquitoes. It could do with a thorough cleaning. Do not examine the rooms too closely for cleanliness, and definitely not the bathrooms! Room cleaning implies folding the blankets, emptying the dustbin and that's about it. Indian railways, BTW, gives better quality blankets. Three redeeming features- a very good AC and very consistently hot water for your bath and large-ish room.||Not much to say about the food- it is very very standard fare. It is also noisy on some mornings especially if some local politician is visiting and the noise carries...
