This guesthouse was recommended to me by friends and the staff provided an excellent service. The central location means that it is easy to get about the city, with the Metro station being only 2 minutes away. The room was neat and clean and breakfast was provided promptly each morning. There was good wifi coverage in the rooms. The manager... More

A bit hard to find as the taxi driver from the airport had no idea where it was. After asking many people we arrived. Kind of a poor neighborhood but once upstairs the rooms were decent. Wifi worked good and the tv had many channels. Great location as right next to a subway station which can take you to many... More

I was on a business trip to Kolkata and after reading a few reviews decided to try Esplanade Chambers. Quite good. I mean for the price it asks, it's pretty good. Entrance is off-putting but everything else is satisfactory. Room was clean, so was the washroom. Wifi is a big plus. Staff was helpful. Breakfast was good. Will stay there... More

We stayed here twice for about 10 days in all. The Manager Aftab is very good and helpful as are the team supporting him. The location is great - by a Metro station and within easy reach of most of Kolkatas sights. The prices for the rooms were really affordable given some of the prices for lesser quality accommodation in... More

Visited Kolkata after 14 years and wanted to stay in & around the Esplanade area. This hotel was perfect for our needs, especially since the metro station was just a minute's walk. We had booked early and had requested for the room with the large bathtub, as they have only 1. We were very pleased with the service staff as... More

Rooms are depressingly run down. Walls need cleaning and painting. Service is good. wi fi is the main reason I stayed here. Location convenient, down an alley and up a shaky lift. Quieter than the Broadway. Despite depressing rooms, sleep quality was good.
