Went there during Poush mela 2019 with family 08 people comprising of 06 persons above 60 years. Its a trend of hotels in Bolpur to charge you exorbitant rates (INR 3k-4K in place of INR 1200/, 1400/- which they mention in their website).
However, our years of visit to Shantiniketan, first time we had these experiences:
1. It was chilling winter night. The blankets offered was of worst quality having thickness of two bed-sheets. You will need 5-6 of them to beat the cold. All of us had to wear our winter clothes and somehow spend the night. 2. Ground floor rooms were allotted to us. The rooms are adjoining to a very very small dining area, staff rooms and kitchens. Its all packed and jammed. The people started yelling and shouting from 6 am.Staff room doors were banged loudly as if our rooms were being banged. 3. Complimentary breakfast only included cold, thinnest size of puri with sabji. Tea/coffee and even water is to be purchased and not provided with room (Expected with the price they charge with the room). 4. Untrained employees, mostly kids (seems around 14-15 years old), which was even more pathetic. However, kids tried their best to satisfy guests but they were hardly allowed to do anything. 5. Wardrobes with no hanging facility, like hangers, had to ask for soaps and towels Property is not far from attractions, located just beside the main road, with open road-side parking beside the hotel. One can get battery operated vans to move around the town.
Date of stay: December 2019
Room Tip:1. No ground floor rooms.
2. Keep your own warm clothes if travelling during winter.
3. No tea...
