How good this location is depends on the kind of traveler you are. By my standards, the metro is walking distance, but it is not a comfortable walk for some people. Also, it is long enough a walk that you can expect multiple auto solicitations. Just as with any good hotel in India, the staff will assist with arranging and auto or taxi ride anywhere you need to go. The hotel also arranges the ride to the airport very swiftly. The room service was excellent as well as the breakfast offerings. This hotel also supplies a copy of the local English newspaper to every room every morning (similar to US News) which is not that common in India. I also enjoyed the way the bathroom has been redone to have shower walls, so that water does not spread through the entire floor when one showers. The room furniture is adequate, although some pieces were not very convenient. Spacious closet/dresser/shelving is provided as well as an electronic lock box. However the room door uses traditional keys, not key cards, and sometimes the lock was a little stiff. The bed was very comfortable. Also the TV service includes many international channels. I was able to watch BBC News and HBO. For me it turned out to be a very comfortable stay finish my two weeks tour of the Golden Triangle.
