“Need a 1 day vacation? Raichak if you can afford it.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I had the opportunity to stay at ffort raichak after the Eid festival when the schools and offices had reopened. So, except for conference meeting crowd - we were the only visitors who had come to relax and explore the property. There are a lot of activities that can be done at the resort. The hotel room had all it could offer. The view from the balcony is very beautiful especially from the top floor where we got to stay. The garden view room however was very disappointing. Not only the view from the room was not worth the cost, the furniture in the garden view room was in bad shape. We made the right decision of taking the river view room, which had better furniture and gave a nice feeling. Since there was no crowd, we got to explore every corner of the resort. The place will definitely be lively with more crowd.

The best thing I liked about the stay was the food and the calm, quiet environment. The restaurant prices were reasonable and the food was delicious. Late at night we ordered hot brownie with ice cream on butter pecan sauce - the best I have had. There is another restaurant located next to the gym which is very expensive, but the food there is amazing. The menu was full of Japanese, Singaporean and Thai cuisine. The good food at this resort won my heart and we were happy when leaving the resort.

Room Tip: Rooms at the top floors have better view of the river

“away from the chuckles of a city... a relaxing experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011

i had a short 1 nite stay at this resort.... it provides all possible amenities and facilities of a resort.. good maintenance,good food, nice pool and spa... its like a place where u just want to relax and enjoy the nature rivrside,., one drawback is that this place has nothing else if u come out of th resort premises.. the area is still very rural.. its like a 5 star in a village.. but a short trip worth it

Room Tip: river view higher floors,..

“Eastern India's best kept secret”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2011

Located by the Hooghly, 53 km from Kolkata city in the state of West Bengal.
The Ffort is a uniquely designed resort which combines an mythical story with modern architecture. The resort is finely complemented by the Spa, The Ffort Holiday Klub, The Club Magna Charta and the Shyamolima - Farmhouses.
Great way to escape the drudgery of city life, breathe the clear air, see a storm brewing in the bay of bengal. enjoy a cup of tea in your balcony and see fishing boats floating away... an odd barge causing the serene river to rustle up waves, feed the fish in the moat, play a lazy game of tennis, indulge at the spa, the options are endless.
Great food, well appointed rooms, great view and clear air are the highlights.

Dont miss an opportunity to take a cruise down the Hooghly.

Room Tip: Take the 4th floor

“Nice place to unwind”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 August 2011

I stayed at the FFort, Raichak as this hotel is now known as as a part of a weekend Business getaway meeting organised by my company. We had a group booking of around 20 and the hotel arranged for a pickup from Kolkata airport. The hotel is about 3-4 hours from Kolkata but once you reach there you will be amazed by the greenery and scenic beauty. The hotel being situated on the river Hoogly has a beautiful view of the river. The property is well maintained and has a variety of outdoor activities though we didnt get time to try all. Food at the restaturant is reasonably good. I didnt get time to try the Spa which this resort is well known for. The disc appeared almost vacant with just a few couples. Rooms are not too spacious but are comfortable and have a good view of the gardens inside the hotel. The toilets dont appear to be well ventilated leaving you desiring for more from a resort of this class. Overall we had a good weekend and though it was a short trip we enjoyed our stay here.

“Expensive and not worth the price”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 July 2011
3
people found this review helpful

My wife and I stayed at the Ffort for one day. The location, the view and the silence away from the hustle of Kolkata was beautiful. That said, the property could be managed better. The rooms were musty, the ameneties very ordinary. Fair amount of the hotel was under construction. Although this was not the peak time, the restaurant turned out very good food. For the prices being charged, the hotel could be better. The beautiful view of the river compensated for the shortcomings. If you are looking for a short escape from Kolkata and willing to put up with the shortcomings, stay here. Otherwise, pass. Not worth the money.
