The hotel's European-style compact rooms are very tastefully done, with a fruit and cookie platter on arrival, but they are small for double occupancy. The service is attentive and cooperative, except for the butler expecting tips. The location is a prime advantage, close to the city's heart and popular high street areas. The dining experience offers a good spread with delicious food. The facilities are well-maintained and convenient.

The hotel's rooms are a basic need for me as they come with a different theme and private bathroom facilities. Although I enjoyed dining at Azure restaurant, there were a couple of issues with the loose bathroom door latch and mosquitoes. The service at the hotel was personalized to meet my requirements rather than just based on staff availability. The location is excellent, being very close to the railway station, city, and airport. The dining experience offered great varieties and a hospitable atmosphere. The facilities at the hotel were up to par.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were amazing; however, the receptionist, Mr Hemant, made my day the worst with a pathetic attitude. The central air-conditioning and tea-coffee-maker in the room were outstanding, and everything was clean. The service, especially from Ankit at reservations, Monaz at Banquets, and Jitendra at the Regal Hall, was truly professional and cooperative. The hotel is located centrally in the city, but they should improve their welcoming at check-in. The dining experience was excellent with a variety of local Gujarati delicacies. I found the stay to be a mixture of highs and lows.
