Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Terrible experience. The mattress provided by the hotel staff was infested with roaches, which was absolutely unacceptable. The elevator button for the 8th floor was not functioning, forcing us to go to the 9th floor and carry our heavy luggage down the staircase every single time. Despite our struggles, no staff member offered any assistance. Additionally, there were no bathmats in the washroom, and when we asked, the staff suggested using towels as a substitute, which was highly unprofessional. Overall, it was the worst experience I have ever had at a hotel, and I would never recommend this place to anyone.

We have stayed at The Shalimar Hotel, every year for last at least 30 years now, as it was good for all the amenities and staff were very friendly and looked after us very well! This time, there were too many issues, which I have submitted to the hotel on their feedback firm and I was very verbal too with complaints. Not staying on our return to Mumbai, which we had booked with Expedia, and cancelled it today.

Beautiful old hotel that gets a lot wrong. I booked a non-smoking room, and they had none left. So room smelled. They changed my room which improved it a bit, but another room they showed me smell SO STRONG of perfume. Old hotel that needs a lot of maintenance. Beautiful old marble. 1/2 shower didn't work. Small corners of cleaning need to be done. Breakfast was very weak. Safe was not screwed to wall, and battery kept dying.

The hotel is well situated and the staff is friendly and helpful My room however was small as were the closet and the little window with a blind that didn't work The hotel advertises rooms that are probably nice but mine wasn't. The breakfast buffet was average maybe a little better on Indian foods On the whole my appreciation is quite benevolent
