We had an excellent 2 day stay. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. We had the breakfast buffet which was very good although being Indian the masala chai did not hit the mark for me, otherwise everything else was excellent. They really try to ensure you have a good stay.

The food quality was not at all up to the luxury hotel stamdard.Street and small outside restaurants serve better food than this.Food menus is very small and unappealing.The food didn't taste up to the par.It is very oily and not appetizing at all.
The "Chai and Jhalmori " served was stale and not at all the luxury hotel standard.
Overall very bad food being served is not edible at all during any time of the day.

Minibar charges were very high and we were not aware of them. Make sure you get both Breakfast and Dinner is your package as food charges are rocket high.
