I've dreamed of staying here since Oi saw Octopussy (back in the 80s I guess!). I was so excited to finally come here as the last stop of our 3 week trip in India - and am left feeling so disappointed, frustrated & let down that I cried. It started out very promisingly with a lovely little arrival ceremony. We were then told that our room had been upgraded & we thought - wow! We were shown around the premises - which didn't take too long. It certainly has a lot of charm & history & they're still living on the Octopussy thing. We were shown to our room which, at first seemed charming but stank overpoweringly of really strong, heavy, horrible floral (maybe rose and/or neolithic?) . I'm allergic to perfume & soon began to feel ill. I asked for whatever was creating the smell to be removed. But the smell remained even after various purifiers were used. We are currently waiting with the door open & fan going full blast to be able to consider going to bed. Meanwhile, we've had tome to notice more flaws. There may be a fine line between age & charm & tired & tatty but this room is clearly on the side of tired & tatty & given the thick layer of dust on the writing co****dium, doesn't seem to get a really thorough clean. The "coffee & tea machine" that was pointed out is a kettle with tea bags & instant coffee. The blinds aren't effective, the bathroom old, damaged & unappealing. Compared to all the other hotels we've enjoyed in India, the service is lacklustre. Instead of meticulously laid out mat & slippers at turn down, a plastic bag of slippers was thrown on the floor near the bedside tables. Not worth the money & an incredible let down.
