    The receptionist named Vivian was extremely unfriendly. She was not approachable. When we first came in the hotel to check in we did not feel welcomed. She hardly even spoke just took our passports and handed me the form. She did not explain about the basic hotel facilities as we had to figure out there is a spa only by looking at the lift label. The service when guest checks in could be improved as we just came from long flight. Later also when we asked for assistance it was Vivian and we did not feel any helpful gesture as a guest staying. I would not recommend service wise for other people to stay there. As a receptionist you are the face of hotel and it was not the best we experienced. Bathroom was bit outdated had moulds in the shower needs upgrading. Carpet was dirty.

    Room service was very good and the food biryani in particular :⁠-⁠) however we found a blue piece of tissue roll one time the staff member was apologetic as we informed about this.

    This is my 6th or 7th time staying the hotel and still I am treated like a number, no loyalty at this hotel for repeated stays. My room was not ready at check in, they made me move rooms.

    It is an ok hotel

    Breakfast could be better, the serving staff did not appear very happy and the spread was very average. The rooms were a little cold and the two bedroom suites do not have any arrangement to make the room warmer. Windows were water stained.

    Excellent spaciaous suite ( 2 bedroom ) , clean toilettes and a well appointed kitchen. Good Location with easy availability of taxi and metro.

    I had booked a 3 bedroom suite with 2- twin in 1 bedroom and 1- queen in each of the other 2 bedrooms and was given 1-queen and 2-2 twin bedrooms. The problem was fixed a few calls after.

    The staff was nice. There was no noise from outside. Taxi’s were easy to get there.

    1) no staff at reception at the time of checkout. 2) staff in the breakfast restaurant was very loud. 3) the room was too small. 4) housekeeping missed to complete the amenities more than a couple of times and I had to call to get them.

    The place was ok but not value for money.
