Perhaps the best hotel you will ever visit. A modern palace with some of the most beautiful art I have ever seen anywhere, let alone in a hotel. But what really sets this place above the rest is the staff. When you're at a hotel of this caliber in India, the service is always great - service is a huge part of Indian culture. But at the Leela, they are absolutely incredible. We practically had our own little nephew in our dear Vishmbher who was always on hand to make sure we were happy and looked after. The restaurant staff was also incredible - Antara, in particular made us feel like royalty. And the food was terrific. The rooms are large and luxurious. The pool is beautiful, the spa magical and the service impeccable. Run, don't walk to the Leela.
Loved this hotel so much! Welcomed in the best way with the local band playing, check in experience really amazing and luxurious in room check-in, rooms and spacious and the ones overlooking the swimming pool are just amazing. My room # was 323, loved it alot!
The only word to describe my saty at these palace will be magical, Right from the boat ride to musical performance everything was top notch. Sagarin is great gentlemen and he has filled the gaps which was missing. Truly magical...
We stayed these hotel in the first week of March everything has gone then what we excepted. The whole team is the ture jack of fuit in these palace. Special mention to sagar and his team for looking after so well. Kudos!
My husband and I booked the vacation from California. Right from the booking to our 4 night stay there, everything was A++. We had requested hotel car to pick us up from the airport. When our flight arrived in the evening, a 7-series BMW with very friendly and warm driver was waiting for us. He explained the history and pointed out points of interest in the surrounding areas. He took us to their own dock where were were greeted by two employees of Leela's and ushered to the small boat that took us to the hotel. Everything breeze with the lights shimmering on the calm lake, disturbed only by our boat. Beautiful! When we got down from the boat, we were greeted with folk music played by local musicians. When we stepped inside the hotel, we were showed with real flower petals. Yes, flower petals falling on us from above. So we look up and find a person gently throwing petals on us. When we arrived in our lake front room, accompanied by the front desk manager, we were greeted by a Butler waiting with 2 cups of best tasting Swiss hot chocolate. Every meal we had in the hotel, from breakfast, to lunch to dinner was absolutely unbelievable. (I am an avid cook and have very high standards for Indian food. So believe me when I say the food was great.) The chefs were ready to cook special food for us. They made us feel very special. Their outdoor restaurant is an experience. They have a local lady cooking all special Indian breads in front of you. All you need to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy the view of the gentle waives of the lake, beautifully it palace, while listening to the soft notes of the local musical instrument being played a few feet away. You cannot believe that life can be so beautiful and peaceful, until you have experienced this yourself. Each morning, we were woken by the gentle sounds of a flute being played by a local musician in the courtyard that is located in the center of the hotel. The same courtyard got transformed into a stage for the local dancers to show off their art, colors, and music. The property is beautiful. You feel you are living inside your dream. The furniture, paintings, fresh flowers, window coverings, carpets... Everything is so beautifully put together. The people are warm, welcoming and just waiting for the opportunity to please you. I am a huge critic. I find faults with everything. But I could not find a single fault in this place. If you are planning a trip to India, be sure to visit this Leela Palace. I highly recommend it.…
