Detailed Reviews
We stayed 5 nights with 2 small children (1 and 3 years). The room was a good size and the breakfast was fine. Our youngest was forever putting things she had found on the floor in her mouth (including a date stone when we hadn't had dates in the room!) and the walls of the corridors have pan stains up them . The A/C was temperamental. It was adequate but I'm not sure I'd recommend it without warnings.

I went to Kanpur to attend friend's marriage and stayed at this hotel for 1 day, hotel location is good as it is in heart of kanpur city i.e. mall road but the rooms are not at all clean. zero ventilation plus very poor quality of bed linen and furniture. Food was ok but they charge me more than what was quoted in hotel menu. Overall not enjoyed this stay.

I would say that this is more functional hotel, near by market area, main road. I had a good walk across to the Z Mall. Mornings you can walk / jog across to a good park around 1 1/2 KM. Restaurants nearby. May have to walk a bit to get auto. Good service from the hotel, expect minimum and you will get it. Don't miss the aloo parotta and Dahi served for complimentary breakfast the room itself, wow what a taste!!

Worst experience in my life to choose mandakini hotel in kanpur.Poor customer service and hotel not hygienic at all. And food items provided by them are overrated. Front office of no use. Need to change their approach towards customer service. I have visited many places in recent past but I place Kashmir no 1 in serving the customers.

I am writing this review, early in the morning, still sitting in the hotel room, after a sleepless night. As a business traveler, I travel 13 to 16 days every month and have stayed at all sorts of hotels. But this one is the worst ever!
Being my first trip to Kanpur, I did some research on the internet to choose a hotel for a 2 night stay. This hotel was my last choice as other higher rated hotels were not available to book on popular hotel booking sites. On arrival at the hotel at around 5 PM, I was horrified to find that the guy at the reception had no clue that I had a confirmed booking, fully paid...took about 15 minutes to sort out the matter and I was finally led to the room on third floor in a rickety elevator. The door did not open as it was jammed. The bellboy had to push hard and force it open. The room had aged sofa, dirty bed linen with hair and stains. After 3 hours of yelling around, they finally changed the bed sheets...and the housekeeping guy had the audacity to ask me "Do you change bed sheets every day at your home?"
The Air conditioner was not working. I complained to reception as soon as I checked-in. It took 4 hours for someone to attend. After AC started working, a very bad smell permeated through the room. Had to switch off the AC.
The Toilet: No toilet paper, no health faucet, just a mug!!
It is 8 AM next day now. I just called another hotel, a better rated than this one and booked a room for tonight. Checking-out a day earlier than planned!
My booking here says "Breakfast Included".. I dont know whether I will try it.
My booking also said " Free High Speed Internet" - Joke
BTW, they did send a car to pick me up at the airport!! Should I complement them for this or say they just fulfilled their obligation as the airport pickup was included.
I will not come back here.

I stayed here for two nights and on the second night there was a huge rat in my room, when I woke up in the middle of the night due to some strange sounds.
The lobby is the only place in hotel which looks decent, apart from it everything about the hotel is seedy. The mattress is hard, the bed sheet is threadbare, the staff is dishonest, the elevator is rickety, the list is endless. This booking was done by my local office, and I gave them a piece of my mind when I had to check out of this hotel. My local office had assured me that this was a standard hotel where a lot of people from our company had stayed earlier.
The only saving grace is the cheap tariff.
Maintenance is zero, the housekeeping guy prefers to sit in a room and watch TV rather than properly check the rooms. You will get an idea once you check the attached pictures.

It was my first visit to Kanpur hence i was worried about the stay but this was one of the good property in budget rate . Rooms are quite small however for an overnight stay this is reasonably the good one. staffs are very helpful, my experience was very good, room was very clean, in that budget i did not expect that i will get this kind of room, room service is also available.staffs are very helpful........
