During my stay at The Samilton, I found the atmosphere to be vibrant and welcoming. The rooms were impressively clean and exuded charm, but some noise from the city could be bothersome at times. The dining experience was exceptional, with a diverse selection of delicious meals and a standout breakfast. Overall, it offered great value for money, especially considering the outstanding service and amenities, though potential guests should be prepared for some city noise.

I had a really incredible experience at this hotel, especially with the staff. They went above and beyond, even returning my forgotten ID from another state, which really impressed me. The rooms were comfortable, especially the Super Deluxe ones, but do keep in mind that traffic noise can be an issue on the first floor. Overall, while the dining arrangements had some room for improvement, the staff made my stay enjoyable and stress-free.

I stayed for five days during Durga Pooja, and while the location of the hotel was excellent and the breakfast was decent, the experience was marred by the pervasive smoking smell in the rooms and inconsistent dining service. Additionally, the hotel could improve on providing tourist support, as there wasn't much assistance available for arranging taxis or sightseeing trips.
