Breakfast was mentioned as free but what we got in terms of breakfast terrible. They delivered some horrible breakfast to the room. Wifi was supposed to be complimentary but I got it only after asking in night. That too took almost 40 minutes to arrange login details. If something is there in package they should offer while checking itself.

Don't attempt even if free of cost

This is one of the shoddiest hotels. there are no basic facilities... no hot water, no blankets, no towels, nothing... dirty dirty n very stinky beds... infact the entire room had hair all over.. the walls, the bathrooms, everywhere,,, no working AC , no customer help, they ignore u n its literally insulting in the end... Stay anywhere but here... its not even worth a 500 rs. hotel.

OK FOR A TRANSIT REMAND

It's OK if you are here in the city for one or two nights en route to your destination. However, if you are here for a longer period, you may not like the fact that the property is scantily staffed, with a security attendant being in place for only 8 -9 hours during the day. The Hotel being located in a busy locality, surrounding may not be to your liking with traffic congestion throughout the day right in front of the Hotel. Overall Rating is satisfactory - recommended for short duration stays.

Language

It took two days for us to find they had an excellent Chinese Restaurant on the Mezzanine floor. well worth the visit just for this Restaurant. Failure to give alarm calls and attend to minor needs because they had a poor grasp of English.

Average hotel for the price

I had stayed previously in chariot. I was very nice then. say 2 years back. My recent visit wasn't pleasing. There are understaffed. Parking the vehicle taking it out is not easy. Still they use cable tv network for the tv which had grainy pictures. A temporarily arranged breakfast buffet hall which was o.k. Room service was not very pleasing.

A fulfilling trip

The Hotel is pretty neat and clean. The room that I had booked was already occupied but the hotel staff did not create any fuss and immediately upgraded my room. The hotel staffs are very welcoming and helpful. The food is great for someone from northern India who is interested in tasting the local cuisine.

The Chariot is alright for a short stay. The rooms are clean and the staff quite helpful. What gives it the edge for its price is the location.

Small rooms, but well maintained...

Good hotel in a calm and comfort location. We took Deluxe double room. The room was not big as expected inline with the room rent. Not upto 3 star level. Wardrobe is situated in the passage near the entry door, and is very uncomfortable. The restaurent and bar are in seperate floors and provide nice service. Morning breakfast buffet is very good. Well maintained. No problem for 1-2 days stay.

Not a 3-star..

This hotel is not 3-star at all as publicized, but comes at a close 1 star. The rooms were just ok, nothing great. They had marble flooring, unclean bathroom and bad service. We ordered food and they took a really long time to deliver it and tasted awful. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone, rather, at the price, there are much other better options.
