Kolkata is equally well known for both its
luxurious and economical accommodations. Its guests are always welcome with a
smile and warmth in the heart of hosts. Therefore, once a person visits the
city of joy and enjoys its hospitality, it forever leaves a mark on their
minds.
Kolkata is also considered to be the Europe of
the East due its open-minded and cosmopolitan culture and like Europe; it too
has a very rich heritage. The people of Kolkata love to have fun, chit-chat and
bond with their guests and make them feel welcomed and this very accommodating
nature is also reflected through its hotels, which always place their guests’
needs on high propriety and make them feel cared for. Even an economy hotel in Kolkata treats its
guests like kings and queens, serving them to the best of their abilities and
not giving them any chance to complain.
Where they lack in facilities, they make it up
in services and dedication to satisfy. Like good hosts, they also introduce
their guests to the city and let them know the places that they must visit
based on their guests’ preference.
Visitors also get a flavor of the culture, art
and food of the state from these accommodations as they periodically organize events
that showcase the rich heritage of Kolkata to guests from all over India and
abroad.
Earlier, if you were to look for a good hotel in Kolkata, you had to choose
between either budget hotels or the very luxurious ones. However, both posed so
very real challenges for visitors of the city. While Economy hotels were cheap,
they lacked some of the basic facilities and some of them had a very scruffy
feel to them, the staff was untrained and additional services were limited.
Also, there was no possibility for a package upgrade, hence guests could not
move to a better room, leading to their dissatisfaction.
Kolkata’s luxury
hotels however had no such
problems and actually the reverse; they have had an overabundance of services
some of which were not important; all of them leading to a greater pocket pinch
which seemed unnecessary.
Hence, hoteliers gave a deep thought about how
to achieve a win-win situation for all guests and have therefore come up with a
new breed of affordable luxury hotels by combining the best of both worlds.
These hotels have given the visitors a new surprise by allowing them better
accommodation at reasonable prices. The services here are value added and they
also contain several packages for their guests to choose from.
Such hotels serve both traditional Bengali
foods along with north and south Indian delicacies for its local guests while
international guests can have delicious multi-cuisine food that they can feast
on. The staff are also adept in attending to international guests since they
speak many different languages and also help guests feel at home in a new city,
providing them guidance along with a good shelter and warmth that makes for
many cherish-able memories.
