Not ITC standards ! Not for the discerning guest
I have to say, the property looks nice. The staff smiles at the entrance. We checked-in to a Premium Cottage room and realised it was unbearably hot, even with the air conditioning operating at peak. It had high ceilings because of a beautiful design but totally inconvenient and uncomfortable. We would not have survived in the room for the 2 nights we needed to stay at this property and instead of making a fuss about something that cannot be rectified. We asked to upgrade to the highest category - a two bedroom villa. The aesthetics in the villa were flawless - the furnishings tasteful, the linen was ok and we had a vast balcony. However, the service and amenities were a hit-and-miss. The service staff was very very young-looking, possibly just out of college and earnest, hard-working but utterly devoid of finesse or professionalism. There wasn't any/enough cutlery in the kitchen racks, the glasses were few, the water-bottles even lesser! These were stocked on demand. The loos/bathing area was clogged due to staffers (at the hotel) using them just before we checked-in and was resolved only after repeated requests. We then ordered dinner which the same staff got - same staff for Housekeeping and same for IRD service. They came with a tray with food covered in foil (like a 3-star hotel). No serving spoons. No cutlery was stocked in the kitchenette still. Food at high-tea was stale. Many many issues - all to do with lack of professionalism. Great potential though.
