I recently had the pleasure of staying at Grand Makel Hotel and I can't say enough good things about the experience. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and a genuine sense of hospitality that set the tone for my entire stay. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained, with elegant decor and comfortable accommodations that made me feel right at home. My room was spotless, spacious, and well-appointed with all the amenities I could ask for. The attention to detail in the design and cleanliness was truly impressive. What really stood out, however, was the exceptional service provided by the staff. Every member of the team went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect. Whether it was the front desk staff, housekeeping, or the concierge, everyone was attentive, friendly, and eager to assist with any request. Their dedication to providing top-notch service truly made my stay memorable. The location of the hotel was also ideal, with easy access to local attractions and dining options. I appreciated the recommendations from the concierge, which led me to some fantastic local experiences. Overall, my stay at Grand Makel Hotel was outstanding, and I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable, welcoming, and well-located place to stay. The staff's commitment to excellence made all the difference, and I look forward to returning in the future.

The turkish bath and massage was excellent. The girls and Ashish delivered their promise as we were told. The "private" tour that was scheduled for us on the 2nd day was not at all a tour. Therefore, We demanded our money back and after so many arguments with different members. we got it. The breakfast was excellent service and food. For the price the hotel is ok where we stayed. Thanks

The staff were very friendly and helpful. However, room service needs improvent with how the food is delivered. The food should be covered in order to keep it hot. Otherwise the food was prepared well. The walls are very thin i could hear guest's conversations in the next room which kept me awake until after 2 a.m. Otherwise nice property and conveniently located to where i needed to be.
