“Fantastic option for a trip to Kolkata”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

I stayed here in January for 3 nights and would highly recommend it. I stayed with a friend in a twin room and we paid €30 per night between us. I plan on returning to Kolkata later in the year and will very happily stay here again.

Good points:
- Hotel is very very clean and well kept (not always a given in India). Room was very clean, beds were really comfortable.
- When we asked for extra blankets we were given them right away with no quibble.
- Staff were fantastic and really helpful. The porter on the front door helped us with haggling with taxi drivers, lifting bags, getting directions etc. He was brilliant.
- Breakfast was included and there were plenty of options. We had very nicely cooked eggs with toast, cornflakes with milk and really good coffee. Indian options also available.
- We left very early on our last morning to catch a train and the staff were great, they brought us breakfast at 5.30am and then helped us get a taxi with no complaints.
- Both check-in and check-out were smooth, easy processes. No problems with the bill at the end.
- Room had a "minibar" which had no alcohol - that's a first for me. Was useful if you were stuck for a bottle of water late at night and was not very expensive.
- Hot water available 24/7 by means of a geyser.
- Bathroom well stocked with shampoo, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, clean towels, toilet paper (it was a western style toilet, hooray).
- Location was excellent - right at the end of Park Street off a roundabout (Park Circus). Was very easy to travel to and from tourist sights such as Victoria Memorial (walking distance if you have a bit of energy), New Market, Mother Teresa house etc.
- Taxi rank right outside the hotel door so easy to get a cab at any time.

Bad points:
- Slight bit of road noise though not difficult to sleep through (and I am a light sleeper). I suspect road noise would be very hard to avoid anywhere in Kolkata as there is traffic everywhere.
- Can't think of anything else bad about the place!

Room Tip: Ask for a room at the back - might be a little bit quieter.

“Good Hotel with good location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2012

I reached the hotel quite late at around 12:30AM in the middle of the night on 18th Dec 2011 as my flight was late and then there was long Q at Kolkata Airport for taxi.

But I found the reception at the hotel quite prompt, fast alert. At that night time, they provided me with news paper.

The room was neat and clean with towel, soaps etc. in the bathroom. Bathroom was not very big, but quite clean. Hot water is provided by geyser and available 24 hours a day!

The room has complimentary tea/coffee maker. The bar was well stocked though there was no beer in it!

The TV was normal one, not LED or LCD! worked well though! AC was also working well!

Over all, I liked the hotel! Would stay again and recommend others as well.

Room Tip: Do not choose rooms road side if you are not an early riser!

I was given the best room though it was pretty old, furniture were poor, AC was making so much of sound. Staffs were polite.

Room Tip: Check the toilet

“Good Hotel for Budget travellers”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2011

We stayed in this hotel for 5 days, during Nov 2011. We chose this hotel mainly for its location as it was centrally located and almost 10 minutes taxi ride to any major shopping area that we had planned on visiting. The rooms were small, however quite clean. There was ample supply of hot water and the air conditioning worked perfectly.Breakfast was included in our stay and was average. Room service was very prompt. Talking about the negatives I would definitely mention the small cockroaches we saw in our rooms on occasions and also the front desk was not too attentive to our needs for them to call us a taxi when we asked for one. All in all i would recommend this place for you if you plan your stay on a budget, want to be close to all shopping areas and do not plan to spend too much time indoors.

Room Tip: Book in advance and check of the flush works in the bathroom

“Polite,accomodating and warm service.”

The stay at the hotel was pleasant.The staff was polite and prompt.The bathrooms could have been better though.There was hardly any room to move without bumping into pots and basins.The location is very good esp since it is right on the street and taxis are easy to get to and fro from the hotel.The food also could have been better.Their tea was not to our liking [but i guess tea is a matter of indiv preference].All in all a good experience.
