A truly exceptional place to stay.
Pros:

The Glenburn Penthouse strikes a rare balance of comfortable luxury and humble worldliness, devoid of the pretentious undertone that persists in so many luxury hotels. Rather than feeling isolated from Kolkata, it feels connected to it. A place with genuine soul that seems to appreciate discerning, hard-traveling guests who understand the difference between mere expense and true character. The rooftop pool captures this perfectly, offering not just comfort, but a remarkable vantage into the sights, sounds, and atmosphere of the city itself. After long mornings exploring Kolkata’s intensity, returning to the Penthouse felt less like retreating from the city and more like remaining thoughtfully immersed within it. Its position at the top of a nondescript building speaks to its discrete allure. Discretion not for the sake of elitism, but simplicity, a gem humbly perched above the city, central to the very best Kolkata has to offer.

This was not just a stay, this was an experience! Highly recommended for so many reasons.

Lovely stylish hotel with excellent service and fabulous views
Pros:

This really is a hidden gem and a fabulous place to stay in Calcutta. Everything exceeded our expectations. It is an oasis of calm after the craziness of Calcutta. We had a huge comfortable room with terrace and a large bathroom. Our suite and the communal areas were very tastefully decorated and the views from the dining terrace and swimming pool terrace were spectacular across to the Victoria Memorial and Howrah Bridge. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. It was also amazing value compared to other places we stayed in India.

Cons:

I cant fault anything

Very comfortable
Pros:

Very comfortable oasis of calm

Cons:

Breakfast was OK, but the dinner and lunch menu seemed to try too hard with overly fussy western options. A more simple lunch and dinner menu with a connection to Kolkata would have been welcome
