SAVOY HOTEL — Hotel in Uttarakhand

Savoy hotel at Almoda was the only and BIIIGGG disappointment in this entire trip. It is a recently painted old hotel. Rooms are specious having a huge common verandah and a nice view of the mountains. They swithed on the gyser as promised as solar water heating was of not much use in cold mornings.||But: a. Few of the electric points don’t work. b. You need to ask for soap, towel etc and insist again before you actually get it. c. You get smelly worn-out towels, of different colors, designs and patterns with threads coming out. d. You need to insist on switching on the DG set on power failure (2nd time they did it without asking). e. Smelly blankets f. Extra hot noodles when we ordered normal / medium spicy ones. f. Old uncleaned cupboards. g. The entire hotel is managed by one person (with some experience) with the help of few teens who barely understand the business.||We did not complain at all during our entire stay as somehow we had a feeling that its useless. There is nothing that they could / would do. I would have still not complained here and on the net but the smelly towel and blankets is too...

This is my third visit to Almora and i always choose Savoy hotel to stay. ||Positive: ||-Hotel is located at Starting of Mall Road with Himalaya facing view from garden of hotel. ||-Hotel Staff was very polite and 24*7 available to help. ||-Food rate was also very affordable and two times veg dinner with tea and coffee for 3 person was billed approx 800/-Rs. ||-This time i also hired taxi through hotel with less price than others. ||-Connectivity to local market is good. ||-I also enjoyed sunbath on hotel's mini garden. ||||Negative: ||-Wifi was not available. ||-Separate geyser is not installed and I have to call on phone extension to start the hot water supply on your bathroom through centralize hot water tank. So it can be manageable and not a big issue. ||||||||Mr. Bist is very coporative made me feel like my own house....
