We were visiting from the USA and booked two super deluxe rooms in this hotel for February 8th 2012 through internet (HaridwarHotels net) and specifically requested that we do require wheel chair access as we have two individuals that required assistance. We chose based on what they said about this hotel on their website that is its proximity to Ganga ghat etc. When we went to check in around 6 PM or so, we were totally shocked as there is no car access to the hotel and parking, there was a lot of construction that limited the access to the hotel, it did not even look like a 4 star hotel, our uncle almost broke his leg when he was going into the reception because of the ditches and construction and the ambiance and the area of the hotel looked very shady. I am not sure who gave these star ratings to this hotel.
WE DID NOT CHECK INTO THE HOTEL AT ALL ALTHOUGH WE PAID FOR TWO ROOMS. INSTEAD WE WENT AND STAYED AT ANOTHER BETTER HOTEL.
CAUTION TO OVERSEAS VISITORS and also Indian visitors:
1. Do not book your hotel reservations through Hardwarhotels.net as you get nothing per their statement "If cancelled before 7 days: 85% refund, Between 7 days-72 hrs: 50% refund, Less than 72hrs, No-Shows or Early Checkout : No refund." Instead go through makemytrip.com or book reputed Tata Hotels chain or other chains.
2. Do not stay in this hotel as it does not have anything that qualifies it to be a four star hotel.
You can imagine that we were turned away by the surroundings and did not even check into the hotel, although we paid for two rooms. Instead we decided to go for a hotel that has parking, good ambiance and it matches its star ratings with its looks and service.
