Hyderabad Marriott Hotel & Convention Centre
This hotel has become very old. Even if you ignore the smell from the lake, this hotel is falling apart. While in shower, I was drenched in muddy water. Literally. The staff was apologitic but it was enough for me to say enough with this hotel. Its not cheap for this kind of expereince.
