Pros:

A beautiful regal hotel with spacious rooms and large balconies. Pool and gym were good. Outdoor grill and tandoor restaurant was fantastic. Happy hour at bar was very good value.

Cons:

Just a bit more care needed in charging back to room, after we checked out and on the road they picked up a meal had been missed to our room and charged to another. Being international tourists, a lot harder to retro pay for it.

Cons:

There are 2 suggestions .

1) Doors leading to the balcony has glass partition at the top so it becomes very bright early morning itself particularly in east facing rooms . So if there is a curtain / screen it will be helpful .

2) For complimentary snacks it is better if you keep snacks prepared by your chefs only instead of using stored / packaged snacks .

Sleepless
Pros:

Breakfast, and restaraunt

Cons:

Horrible bed, mattress was very very soft due to excess use. Sheets/comforter were unwashed, could smell earlier guests' cologne on that.
