An excellent place to wine and dine.....one of the finest kebab makers and live up to the expectation since many years of its fame. Kebab e que is the place to dine with your family for good mughal / indian dishes. Plush is the night-out place for young and happening...it is the best place to do sweet-nothings with your girl-friend.....and... More

As other reviewers have mentioned, the hotel section is closed as rooms are being totally rebuilt. The result is that any reviews written previously are likely to be entirely misleading once the hotel reopens. During renovation the bar etc still operates.

We had our wedding reception on January 1 2012. They ripped us off on the number of head counts after the reception. They said they counted hundred plates when we only had a total of 80-82 max. It is always hard to prove these things on the spot, especially since I was the groom! Besides, they changed the menu without... More

I have previously stayed in the Astor when in Calcutta. When I was there in November this year the hotel was closed for refurbushment but I was able to eat in the restaurant and use the bar facilities. The restaurant is still excellent with a great menu and the Kebabs are as good as they ever were. The staff still... More

I have been there for lunch on my business trip to kolkata. Although bit difficult to guess from its exteriors that there is a very good food available at this place. Very good food. Do try the "Pudhina Paratha", if you planning to go there..

Well, this place is full of childhood memories, otherwise I wouldn't stay here. Its expensive - simple as that. Its got an amazing location, central to most places of interests for a business traveler. The food is good & so is the ambiance. And its close to most shopping areas. Astor will remain a sentimental favorite.

Average Property. Old dedicated staffs who might be working for years together. Average on service, comfort, room quality, overall facilities. Definitely not value for money. Rates are relatively higher. The property is very centrally located. Has a tremendous reputation for Good Food. Tandoori Delicacies or for that matter all preparation. Food tastes good here.

we had a spacious room that was clean, but the decor definitely made it feel like we were stuck in the 80s. BIG PLUS: continuous hot water and a western-style shower (i.e., a glass door separated the shower from the rest of the bathroom). for comparison purposes for future travelers: a decent stay relative to other hotels, but this would...
