My stay at the hotel started off promising with a grand entrance, but it quickly turned into a disappointing experience. The rooms varied significantly, with some offering great views of the lake, while others were poorly maintained. On the dining front, the buffet lacked quality, and the service left much to be desired. The beautiful lake view is definitely a highlight, but the overall facility needs some serious improvements.

The hotel is situated right by the beautiful Chandrika Lake, providing splendid views that are hard to beat. My room was spacious and included a comfy king-sized bed with ample wooden furniture, but the bathroom was quite compact. The dining experience was decent, with a variety of curries, though breakfast had its issues with cleanliness. Overall, the hotel needs some improvements in service efficiency and cleanliness, yet the atmosphere and view are fantastic.

I had high hopes for this hotel given its stunning location by the lake, but overall it was a disappointing experience. While the rooms are spacious with a lovely view, the cleanliness left a lot to be desired. The service was pretty lackluster, and dining could use significant improvement in both variety and freshness. It's a shame because the property has great potential, but many corners seem to be cut.
