Shabby- in need of some loving care. When we paid the bill they tried to charge us extra for cleaning the room. Ironically it was so dusty with a slightly grimey appearance we had purchased cleaning products & cleaned the room ourselves! The electrics left something to be desired. At least there was hot water and a safe in the... More

The nastiest hotel I have ever stayed in! Bugs in the rooms everywhere! Had to turn on the lights in the bathroom each morning and then jump on the bed until the bugs cleared the floor. Once you did take a shower, the entire bathroom was soaked! Oh, and hot water? None here! Of the seven nights I stayed here,... More

We were brought here by the taxi driver because it was "cheaper". Well it's not. You can find rooms for less than 400 Rs on Sudder St or even across from this hotel called BMS. If you've come to volunteer for Missionaries of Charity, the hotel is close to the Motherhouse but not necessarily close to the homes you may... More

The spin-doctors may tell you different but to my eyes Kolkata is hell on earth and the hotel circular fits right in to this description. According to the BBC there are 200 million slum dwellers in India and a lot of them live in Kolkata. Situated on one of the busiest streets the traffic noise was only just exceeded by... More

I paid about 1,100 rupees a night for a tiny boxed room here... the sheets were clean here, and staff are friendly and helpful, but I'd say you really can get somewhere else for the same price that is a LOT nicer. Also the room had so many tiny cockroaches running around, which got in my bag and all my... More

We stayed at the Hotel Circular for 2 nights as our first stop in India. The location was pretty good. After crossing the busy street we were able to walk to the sights, the Victoria Memorial, Sudder St., India Museum, etc... We ate at the restaurant several times because it was convenient, but realized as we traveled more in India... More

I have seen real dumps in Calcutta, and this place is not that bad. I was relieved. The staff were really helpful (they want tips, but I didn't mind) and let me check in quite early for which I am grateful. The room was nothing special. There was a crack in the toilet when it flushed, flooding the floor, there... More
