Visited and stayed here last week for 4 nights itself with my family, Wife and 2 kids. Was not that amused with ITC standards in this hotel in particular. I am bit surprised when i saw excellent ratings for the hotel . With due respect I think it has come from Couples who have stared new jorney and there marriage and have very few reasons to be disappointed but for me this hotel is no where near to be a excelent
1.) Well best part is the location . Situated right next to sea shore infact only hotel in Port Blair which is so close to shore. Views are breathtaking from Lobby, Restaurant and Rooms if you are lucky enough to get a sea view room. But you have to shelve extra money for Sea view rooms that is hard to understand .
2.) Rooms are OK when it comes to space . Would be fine for a couple but will feel crowded if you have children. Theme is all wooden with wooden floor. Here again Sea view rooms are maintained better in every aspect . Bathrooms are cramped, average clean . Balconies are again kind of OK. They offer you complementary water bottles , a tea Coffee which are in very sorry state, Very old and desperately need change. We never used them and i got same inputs from many guests i had chat with .
3.) Well Furniture, Cupboards and other stuff is fairly old, stained and need change. They provide you a mini refrigerator but that too is old and noisy . They still have old fashioned CTV's in room where many low rated hotels in Port Blair have LCD's.
4.) Electrical fixings are in Sorry state and dangerous if you have kids .
5.) But they provide Good Lenin's, Bed-sheets Again Beds are not that comfortable . Rooms are not sound proof and Light Filters through windowpanes , It is distracting when it comes to
quality sleep.
6.) Pool is Not clean . Food is Okay , Some times good and Some times Average . They try there hand on International cuisines . well Better stay away from International cuisines.
Breakfast and Dinner are buffet , Diner is better with quality Seafood .
7.) Alcohol is available and reasonable priced and so are food items ,
8.) Best part is service , they oblize quickly and proactively ,
9.) There rooms are well fairly overpriced and so is there travel desk . They will charge INR 300 for KM long trip ... Avoid it ....
10.) and there is nothing for Kids as they claim on there website no kids zone or even a swing to go with ...
11.) Location is biggest point but other things can't be ignored as Port Blair now has everything available like anyother Indian city. There prices are exorbitant for which they need to provide better services . i will give a 2.75 - 3.00 out of my 5 for my stay and that also mainly due to their service ...
