Au pied d'une antenne relais 4-5G mais confortable
Pros:

Excellent rapport avec le staff du desk. Belles vues.

Cons:

Une énorme antenne relais, remplie d'antennes 4 et 5G à quelques mètres de la structure! Impossible de dormir tant le champs électromagnétique était fort: et j'avais demandé par écrit à la structure si cette dernière était loin des antennes, la réponse avait été "Oui!". Erreur inadmissible pour un établissement de ce prix. Aucun geste commercial de la part du gérant de la chaîne hôtelière. Qui plus est l'hôtel était en travaux: donc foto trompeuse sur le site de booking, poussière et bruit de travaux pendant tout le séjour.

Antenne relais, champs électromagnétique et bruits de chantier
Pros:

L'hôtel, de bon standing pour l'Inde, avec chauffage (air soufflé) qui fonctionne à un personnel compétant et charmant.

Cons:

La structure est à côté d'une énorme antenne relais: le champs électromagnétique sur les terrasses est insoutenable, il envahit la salle à manger (l'antenne est à un jet de pierre) et les chambres, même celles du bas: donc sommeil perturbé, voire fortement altéré. J'avais posé la question et il m'avait été répondu qu'aucune antenne ne se trouvait à proximité.
Qui plus est l'hôtel, cher pour l'Inde, était en construction lors de notre séjour (une semaine de bruit de chantier, de poussière dans les chambres etc.). Nous n'avions pas été prévenu. Ne vous attendez à aucun geste commercial de cette chaine d'hôtel.

A view to for.
Pros:

The view is breathtaking.
Every single staff was kind and eager to help.
We want to mention the staff in the restaurant who was very attentive to my husband who needed help at the breakfast buffet.

Cons:

A concierge service would have been able to assist with flight tickets.
Our Superior Room with balcony was very comfortable, the view amazing, but unfortunately not enough space for comfortable seating.

High end lovely new hotel in a quiet area
Pros:

Very lovely rooms. Spacious and well designed. Restaurant staff, in particular were great.
Quiet too

Cons:

They need to sort out the surcharge at check-in (referred to by other reviewers too) . The price should be the same as the price agreed on Booking.com

מקום מומלץ מאד לבעלי תקציב גבוה מהרגיל
Pros:

ניקיון והמיקום קרוב למקדש הדלאי למה

Cons:

נאמר שהחדר ללא נוף וכשהגענו נדהמנו לגלות שזה חדר בלי חלון כבר חשבנו ללכת למלון אחר אבל באו לקראתנו ושודרגנו לחדר מקסים עם נוף

Pros:

Das Personal zeichnet sich durch außergewöhnliche Freundlichkeit und umfassende Hilfsbereitschaft aus und stand uns bei sämtlichen Anliegen unterstützend zur Seite. Die Zimmer sind in einem neuwertigen Zustand und hervorragend ausgestattet, ergänzt durch einen erstklassigen Service (täglich kostenfreies Wasser und Tee). Die Betten boten einen hohen Schlafkomfort, und das Frühstücksbuffet überzeugte durch seine Vielfalt und Reichhaltigkeit. Darüber hinaus wurden auch individuelle Wünsche berücksichtigt. Auch im Winter sehr angenehm zu temperierende Zimmer. Danke für das kostenlose Zimmerupgrade!

A Gem of a Hotel.
Pros:

The Belvedere is a gem of a hotel! It is beautiful, comfortable and a 6 star experience. I loved my stay here. The room was beautiful, clean and warm. A lovely bed and a good night's sleep and the Staff are all welcoming, helpful and polite. I would definitely stay here again. The Location is good, walking distance to the cable car and The Dalai Lama Temple.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing.
I loved my stay at The Belvedere.
