The hotel is ideally located in the heart of Kolkata, close to bustling city center with easy access to restaurants and shopping areas. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but the bathrooms have only trickles of hot water, which can be a downside.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the bathrooms were a bit of a letdown. On the bright side, having a bath and a balcony added a nice touch. The service was decent overall, especially with room service available. The location in the heart of Kolkata was convenient, but the 'open' dining area didn't quite hit the mark. Despite some positives, the price seemed a bit steep for what was offered.

The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Kolkata, close to everything in Central Kolkata. The rooms, though with hot water coming only in trickles in the bathroom, offer a balcony and a bath, yet the bathrooms could be improved. The service is efficient, with room service available.
