Stayed for 6!days..changed 3 rooms...on day 6 got a good room... finally Amarnath ( manager ) understood our problem and moved us to a good room...wish we spoke to him on day 1😀 front office staff is good but not knowledgeable and some are very arrogant. Cleaning staff is top notch. Overall a lovely luxury hotel..

Very impressive building, lobby and reception areas. Unfortunately rooms do not reflect the grandeur of the foyer, reception and lobby. Excellent staff, extremely courteous and friendly. My room had a dirty ceiling which one cannot escape noticing when lying down. Also rooms are small and a bit cramped. Poor air conditioning, lacks humidity control. Overall a positive experience, will most definitely stay here again.
