Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and basic rooms that are clean and open to the courtyard, all at the rate of Rs 2500 per room. The service is attentive and makes personal efforts for guest comfort. However, the location lacks sufficient ventilation and is near a garbage area, making it somewhat suffocating at times. The dining experience, especially in-room dining with gluten-free options, was pleasant. Overall, the facilities are satisfactory but may not be the most modern or luxurious.
The hotel has a very convenient location, close to the center but with issues regarding ventilation and garbage disposal. The rooms were not worth the price, unclean, and lacking in appeal, with only a TV as a notable feature. The service was below par, with inconsistent attention to guests. The dining experience was good, especially the in-room options. The facilities were basic and did not offer value for money.
I had mixed feelings about my stay at the hotel. The rooms, though quite spacious, were not worth the price we paid, especially considering the festive season rush and our sudden plans. On the positive side, the service was attentive and personalized, with staff members going out of their way to ensure our comfort. However, the location was uncomfortably suffocated with poor ventilation and facing a garbage area, which made catching an auto quite challenging.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was central, convenient for catching autos but suffocated with inadequate ventilation and garbage in the vicinity. The service was friendly and personalized, with a warm greeting every morning, but lacked overall guest care. The dining experience was enjoyable with good European food offered in-room. The rooms were basic and suitable for a short stay, although I wouldn't justify paying more than 1000 Rs per night.
The sudden plans we made during the festive season led us to a hotel with quite spacious and large rooms that offered basic amenities like TV. The service was very friendly and focused on our comfort. The location in the main town area between 29th Dec and 1st Jan allowed easy access to the center, although ventilation was an issue due to the front location near garbage. The dining experience, while limited to small meals in-room, was good. Overall, the facilities were adequate for a cozy stay.
I had a last-minute stay at this hotel during the festive season, and even though the room was basic and somewhat dingy, it was spacious enough for our group's needs. The service was personalized, with staff taking good care of us throughout our stay. The location, although quite suffocating and close to some discomforting surroundings, was convenient for catching transportation and exploring the main town area.
The hotel's rooms were not worth the Rs 2500 per room charge as they were dingy and scarcely equipped, more like worth Rs 1000 per night. However, the service was personal and attentive, focusing on our group's comfort. The location was very suffocated with limited ventilation but centrally located in the main town area. The dining experience was good with in-room service of home-grown products. The overall facilities were just average.
The hotel is centrally located in the main town area of Udaipur, close to the main tourist attractions, which is convenient for exploring the city. The rooms lack windows, making the ventilation insufficient, and the surroundings can be noisy due to the proximity to a garbage area. The in-room dining experience was enjoyable with delicious homemade biscuits, but the overall facilities could use some improvement.
The hotel is conveniently located in the center of Udaipur, close to the main tourist attractions, but unfortunately, it felt suffocated due to lack of ventilation. The staff were attentive and took personal care of our group, but the reception seemed a bit neglectful. The dining experience with homemade jams was enjoyable, and the facilities were decent.
The hotel boasts a great location at the center of Udaipur, close to the main tourist attractions, making it convenient for exploring the city. However, the lack of ventilation made the room feel suffocated, and the presence of garbage nearby was off-putting. The hotel is a bit far from other sites, affecting accessibility.
