the JANPATH HOTEL experience

Well, I was in Delhi on 8th Feb.. for a business meeting.

Unfortunately, I was put in Hotel Janpath, on Janpath road, NewDelhi...

The experience... in the hotel... I wanted to share..on my blog spot....

It is my mistake, I feel, after paying Rs. 6000/- + per night, we end up in staying in a room which is worst than any standard rooms available in Paharganj area, at Rs. 400 to 500 /-. or less than that.
NOT A JOKE.
The taps were leaking,
Bad Plumbing- Cistern is fixed in such a way that if you try to flush , your fingers will touch the WC cover/ring.
... Creeking bed, Noisy Fan (Fitted during british regime it seems.)
Dead telephone,
patchy painting on the doors, exposed electric wires everywhere. I was afraid to touch the switch of the Fridge.. it was making so much noise that I could not sleep. it was surrounded by so many live wires.When I tried to contact the lobby manager / Travel desk in the morning for a Taxi, nobody was available there. The reservation / information desk was unable to help me b'coz they were already arguing with some other occupant guests for leaking taps etc.....I dont wish to write anything about the food or any other services. I thought, after Congress ministry take over, the Service and look for this hotel might have got a face lift. But no, it still remains the same. Probably we wont recommond this hotel to any of our clients / foreign delegates / friends .

I dont think We will also visit this hotel ever again, Anyway.
