Set in 32 acres of lush, well-tended gardens, our stay at the hotel was a delightful experience with small attentions and delicious treats in our palatial room. The service was impeccable, making us feel valued, although the noise from the city's heart was a downside. The dining, accompanied by gentle bansuri music, was a memorable affair with excellent service. The facilities offered added to the overall luxury and comfort of our stay.
