Reviews for Hotel Atithi
Review 1:Daily Room cleaning can be timely made. Our rooms are cleaned after we reminded them.
Review 2:Stayed for christmas. Room410. Rooms were clean and staff hospitality is really good. The hotel is located near to city's attractions Breakfast (buffet) is complimentary and worth for taste buds
Review 3:The one thing that made us uncomfortable was the drilling noise that came exactly on our room top. When enquired they said some renovation work was going on. Guests will prefer to stay at peace so this should be taken care of.
Review 4:The staffs were very friendly. The food was really very good. The breakfast was full of different varieties of dishes. We really enjoyed the stay at Atithi. Will recommend to my friends and relatives.

Review 15:- very odd smell in reception on the day of arrival - had a tough time to convince the reception area during check out. The breakfast was included in the price so i decided to clear the hotel before eating while he insisted that i eat first. I refused...
Review 16:All except some staff response and smell in the reception area when i first came in...
Review 17:Housekeeping was erratic and floors not washed - sweeping is not sufficient. Some updating needed on ceiling fixtures along corridors. More attention should be paid to cleaning surfaces in rooms and they should be checked before occupation.

Review 49:The tall young man on reception refused to call a taxi for us when we were leaving after a two night stay. He said the only option was to take the hotel car at a cost of 1000R plus tax. In the end I called the hotel where we were heading to and they sent a taxi that charged 300R. The hotel pretends to be high quality but fails in all regards. Especially customer service.
