The Hotel is very centrally located in proximity to the market and business. It is also very reasonably priced. However it needs few improvements to qualify as a good business hotel. Rooms were fair.

I have been visiting Kolkata for 5 days and staying in Hotel Himalay for 5 days. First unpleasant surprise was the rule which is mentioned, one can not stay with friend unless married. One has to wait quite long during check-in although there are 3 members of staff. Every morning, at 8.30, they asked to leave room for cleaning. Although... More
