The hotel is beautiful both inside and out. It is well laid out overlooking a central courtyard. The food is great although a little pricey and the staff are really friendly. The rooms are comfortable, so you are guaranteed a good night's sleep. It is a lovely hotel to come back to especially after a hectic day's sightseeing. More

I read many of the reviews before our visit and can only confirm that this was the most splendid hotel we stayed at during our recent tour of India. The welcome starts with the most enormous display of fragrant lillies in reception, the polite and helpful staff, and the ambience of the whole hotel. We arrived a little early to... More

We were stunned by the beauty of this well preserved institution. Calcutta was the capital for the British during their rule and The Grand was their hotel. Our rooms were modern, the pool was wonderful and the staff was gracious. In India the staff at luxury hotels tends to get in your face with offers to serve that you don't... More

Given the hundreds of positive reviews of the Oberoi Grand it seems rather superfluous to add yet another but we so enjoyed our stays there that we feel the “Grand Dame of Kolkata” deserves yet another bouquet. We stayed in late December 2011 for 5 nights and then again in mid January 2012 for another 3 nights. Both stays were... More

Fancy hotel in a nice location in Kolkata. Has two different restaurants and a bar on site, nice open courtyard with a pool, a spa, and fairly ok internet connectivity. The food I had there was pretty good and the staff was helpful. The hotel car was a ripoff though, but then again everything in this hotel are "New York... More

I stayed at the Oberoi Grand Kolkata (my second stay) for four nights in January 2012. Everything was outstanding: the room and its amenities, the very professional and caring service. The morning wake up came with coffee or tea and cookies. To stay in a historical hotel in the historic center of Kolkata is a rewarding privilege. And the hotel... More

The hotel is one of the most renowned landmarks of Calcutta(Kolkata). This was my first stay at this hotel although earlier I had attended a few conferences here. The hotel was booked by my office so there was a good discount on the rack rates. Most of the people I met here were on their 2nd or 3rd visit. There... More

I liked this hotel very much, pleasant stay and comfortable rooms. Located in heart of city. Good good & breakfast, good swimming pool. But bit expensive. They offer early check in for Jet airways guest. Hotel taxi is too expensive. They asked me about Rs. 1500 for to and fro to Howrah station which is just 2 kms from the... More

If you are a nostalgic, this is the right place for you. Top location. Markets, shops, restaurants, entertainment and sightseeing around the corner. Big advantage in Kolkata, if everything is within walking distance (traffic jam 24 hrs). Check-in formalities in your room. The pool-view room is spotlessly clean, rather big and very old-fashioned. The bathroom is tiny, no separate shower.... More
