We stayed for 3 days at the beginning of May. Ideal location as just a few minutes walk from Gateway to India, entrance to ferry for Elephant island and local shops and restaurants ( recommend Leopolds ) The hotel itself has friendly staff who were all eager to help. Our room was very clean and spacious. We paid for a... More

Stayed for 4 nights in April-13. We chose to stay here because of its location even though the hotel is totally overpriced. It is located right at the backside of the Taj Mahal Hotel and India Gate. There is also a Starbucks right across the street, and just a few blocks away there are several restaurants and cinema etc. Our... More

We stayed there 2 nights in Jan and we only chose this hotel for the location, just a 2 min-walk from the Taj Mahal Hotel. We paid more than 100 USD for a night and it was totally overpriced. The bathroom was dirty and full of ants so we had to change room. Even though the staff was helpful in... More

I visited this hotel in February and thought that due to the area it was situated, right behind the magnificent Taj Mahal Hotel, it would come up to scratch. How wrong can one be. Dirty, dismal staff and no ambiance whatsoever. When I went for breakfast the next morning I had to ask if what was laid out in front... More

This is a small, somewhat dilapidated and dirty hotel,, with very nice staff, in a great location. You are right behind the wonderful TAJ hotel a block from the waterfront in the midst of the commercial center that has grown up in around this tourst center.

This hotel has a lot to recommend it - a great location within walking distance of interesting sights, a friendly security guard at the door, the morning paper slipped under the door of your room....but the standard of the rooms themselves is not great. Mouldy walls, grim views from the window, thin and nasty bed covers - all of this... More
