Categories

Cleanliness
8.5
Generally reported as clean and well kept (several guests mention tidy rooms and fresh condition), though a few noted aging elements and one guest reported insect-bite-related rash and a poor extra-cot mattress.
Service
9.6
Consistently praised: multiple reviewers call staff very helpful, polite and cooperative; management and staff efforts to accommodate room changes and assist guests were highlighted frequently.
Location
9
Good location for airport access and near the metro per several reviews; one comment noted the hotel is away from many Calcutta sites (mixed but generally favorable convenience).
Room Quality
8.5
Rooms offer spectacular views and comfortable beds for many guests, but several reported small room size, limited storage, an initially wrong/smaller room and a hazardous bathtub in one case.
Amenities
7.2
Strong amenities concept (infinity pool, rooftop bar, club) frequently mentioned, but multiple guests reported the pool/hot tub being closed, under maintenance or in need of cleaning which downgraded this score.
Value for Money
9
Several guests explicitly called it good value for money and praised breakfast options; some noted restaurant prices are high, but overall perception of value is positive.
Food and Beverage
9.4
Food repeatedly described as awesome and breakfast as amazing with variety and made-to-order options; a minority found the buffet quality not fully matching the price or restaurant pricey.
Overall Experience
9.2
Overall stays were described as relaxing and enjoyable with many guests stating they'd stay again — strong staff, views, rooftop and dining make for a very positive overall impression despite some amenity/room issues.

It was alright
Pros:

The view from our room was spectacular. We could see the whole city laid out in front of us. It was the bonus of the property in my opinion.

Cons:

I didn't like the extra cot provided to us in the room as it the suite was booked for 3 adults and 1 toddler. The quality of the mattress was very poor. And my son got some weird rashes of some insect bite after the stay.

I will stay here again. Lovely staff, love Capella, love the restaurant.
Pros:

Lovely hotel with beautiful rooftop bar and a fantastic restaurant. Food is delicious, breakfast had lots of variety and made to order options too. Very please by the staff and their efforts to make our stay comfortable.

Cons:

Only two things to complain about, the room we were given at first, clearly wasn’t the room we booked online. It was small and the bathtub was hazardous. It was too high and dangerously tiles fitted which caused me to skip while getting out. After requesting they moved us to a better room with shower and we loved it. Another thing is not enough storage space as the cupboards are too small for longer stay in every room as the staff mentioned.

Pros:

Breakfast was amazing! Staff were very helpful and proactive.

Cons:

The pool (which seems to be their main attraction while booking) was under maintenance and it would have been nice to mention this at the time of booking, or at least in their website.
