I am writing to share my recent experience at the Pipal Tree Hotel during the first week of February 2024, which unfortunately was quite distressing.
Despite my office making reservations two months in advance and paying the full amount, I was unexpectedly asked to check out a day after my arrival. The reason provided by the Front Office Manager, Mr. Avishek Das, was urgent maintenance work necessitating the relocation of all guests to nearby hotels.
However, as the evening progressed, it became apparent that the hotel had overbooked and was prioritizing a large group attending an alumni meet over individual female guests like myself. When confronted, Mr. Das admitted to deceiving me and revealed the true reason behind the request to vacate my room.
I was deeply troubled by Mr. Das's rude and threatening demeanour, and his phone calls forcing me to vacate my room. It was only with the assistance of friends in the city that I was able to resolve the situation. Nevertheless, this experience was unprecedented and unsettling, particularly as a solo female traveller.
I feel compelled to caution others against staying at Pipal Tree Hotel and urge you to share this information within your network to prevent others from encountering similar issues.
