Can't complain for the price bad smell in washroom
The hotel in itself was average, can't really complain for the price. But there was a bad smell in the toilet and kitchen sink, probably just bad drainage. We took the 1BR on the second floor. Reasonably spacious. Kitchen utensils were bad, only the kettle was in decent shape. Location wise, good restaurants (and a few bars) in about 15 minute walking distance. Easy to get a Tuk. Staff were friendly and helpful.

2/10 Poor

not recommended for families at all
i had called thrice prior to booking the hotel regarding facilities. we wanted a fully equipped kitchen and it was advertised as a full kitchen. the hotel representative assured us of the same if we booked suite. we were also assured an extra cot with mattress if we pay a daily surcharge. i booked a suite and paid the daily surcharge. there was nothing in kitchen but 2 plates, a spoon and a small induction/electric heater with no vessels etc. i was given a floor mattress even on daily request we did not get anything in kitchen to cook or even boil milk for our young children,making it practically useless and i slept on the floor all days room was smelly the hotel staff could have have informed me when i called 3 times honestly about the realistic situation and i would have booked in some other place when we checked out the staff member profusely apologized but we had finished our stay then

Great Thanksgiving Nagar location
Watch out for reversed cold and hot water connections. For a peaceful night of sleep, take time to learn all remotes...ask for a demonstration before tipping hotel staff.

4/10 Fair

Bad experience
Booked the Suitel through Orbitz at a discount rate. However after checking told, the rate will be high since am checking with 3 people. Don't know what difference does it make. Have to pay twice of what I was originally paid, with no explanation. Also, midway asked to vacate the room for AC repair (AC was working) and offered a room which is smaller. Hotel staff seem not straightforward. Breakfast decent.
