“Good hotel”

We were booked into this hotel by our travel agents, Travel Tours, Bangalore. It's rather far from the City Centre or Downtown (closer to the Airport and the Art District though).

We were booked into this hotel by our travel agents, Travel Tours, Bangalore. It's rather far from the City Centre or Downtown (closer to the Airport and the Art District though). The hotel is pretty decent. The 2nd-floor room we got was spacious enough for three beds (parents and me). We had to cart our own bags to our rooms, no bellboy service. Rather dim lighting though. Also, it's window was facing into the hotel lobby. So, not much natural lighting. The beds were a little hard, but not uncomfortable. The A/C was great! They provide a water heater and tea sachets, but no coffee makers and creamers. The bathroom was spacious. Closet space was sufficient. The hotel provided us with complimentary breakfasts. The buffet breakfast was well-stocked (cereals, meats, eggs, bread, juice, veggies, etc). Since we were going out all day with our tour group, we didn't get time to have lunch or dinner here. All in all, a decent experience for budget travelers.

I booked into this hotel as I had an early flight from Beijing airport and it was better located than a city centre hotel for this purpose. I had no expectations, as I paid a meagre amount for the room. Upon arrival, check-in was efficient, although not enormously courteous. The porter didn't help with the luggage - just watched us take it to the lift, then pressed the button for the wrong floor and left us to get on with it. The corridors were filled with cigarette smoke, and were a bit like a labyrinth! However, once inside the bedroom, there was no residual smell of smoke which was a relief to me. The room was spacious and well equipped, and the bed was comfortable. The carpet could have done with a vaccuum. In the bathroom (which had a bath as well as a shower) there were cracks in the tiling and the bathroom door wouldn't close properly. But it was clean, and there was plenty of hot water and towels. In all, the room was fine for an overnight - much better than I was expecting. There was good wifi acces in the lobby, but not in the rooms. The breakfast selection wasn't great - but it sufficed - quite enough to set me up for the long travel day ahead. Check-out was efficient, and overall, the place was okay.
