Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is centrally located near M G Road, offering spacious and clean rooms with basic amenities. While the room had a ceiling fan and light, the air conditioning seemed inadequate, but the pleasant Bangalore weather compensated for it. However, we were disappointed that the quoted price was double what was initially agreed upon for a 2-night stay, possibly due to misleading advertising on Make My Trip.
The hotel is perfectly situated near the buzzing Brigade Road, surrounded by great eating places. The rooms, although quiet at the end of the corridor, are disappointing with faulty piping issues and pricing discrepancies. The service is a mix of extreme helpfulness and occasional indifference. The dining experience lacks variety, and the facilities fall short of expectations.
I entered the room and immediately noticed it was clean and tidy, but unfortunately, it had a strong cigarette smell. Additionally, the hotel quoted us double the amount we agreed upon for a 2-night stay. The service was a mix of courteous and accommodating staff with a few who seemed disinterested. The hotel's location is perfect for exploring Bangalore, being centrally located near important business districts and historical sites. The dining options were limited and could use some improvements. However, the smoothies were pretty good. The facilities were decent overall.
The hotel is situated in a prime location near the major city attractions and shopping centers. The rooms are sufficiently spacious, cozy, and clean, equipped with basic amenities like soap and tissue box. However, the air conditioning may need improvement, though the pleasant Bangalore weather compensates for it. The place is unfortunately filled with a cigarette smell and had some faulty piping issues, with pricing discrepancies for the stay.
The hotel's location is a big plus, right in the major happening place in Bangalore. The rooms, while pretty old with damaged furniture, are surprisingly spacious and comfortable. The service was very friendly and helpful, although some renovations could enhance the overall experience. The dining options could be improved, but the central location makes up for it.
