Palki Lodge & Reception

I have been to various places and stayed at many hotels and lodges but I have never had such a bad experience like this one. To simply put, it was absolutely disgusting.nFirst thing first, the rooms were congested, not at all spacious. Even a triple bed room had hardly any space left after that huge bed. That was quite uncomfortable. Talking about the bathrooms, those were horrible. The bathrooms had stains everywhere and were very unhygienic. What more, the staffs did not bother take complains about the unclean bathrooms and sent a sweeper after two days. Cleaning facilities were totally absent in this lodge. They did not even send anyone to clean the contents of the wastepaper baskets.nComing to the food they served and their dining hall, those were substandard as well. The lodge had no kitchen as such. Breakfast and evening snacks along with tea came actually from unhygienic roadside eateries; lunch and dinner came from the kitchen of lodge’s owner whose house was at a little distance. The worst thing was they had no provision of providing filtered water. What they gave was plain tap water as drinking water. After the second day each of us in our party fell sick. Moreover, the dining hall was a grazing field for stray cats.nTo put simply, everything about Palki Lodge and Reception was extremely disappointing. I strongly advise everyone who are considering this place as an option for their travel itinerary to think twice. I would never recommend this place to anybody. Also, the owner, Swarna Kamal Basu was a rude man who misbehaved with us. In conclusion, that place is disgusting and horrible. I had the worst experience at that lodge.

The interior decoration was beautiful...And the manager and staff were really very helpful and amiable.We loved staying there as a whole..The backyard was very nice...The condition of rooms may be upgraded a little..And the food quality should be improved.. Otherwise,its a very good place for spending 1 night...

Friendly and homely, cultural atmosphere.nService is very good. I shall love to go again.

Only ground floor rooms.Rooms r quite well, neat and clean,sufficient water, geyser available. But, at night we couldn't sleep beacuse of mosquitoes. Instead of all out/maxo we suffered lot of mosquito bites. Otherwise all good..Behaviour of Staffs & manager r good & decent.

As per double bed single room space and bed size I will give them 4star.nLevotary - 2.75 star. Toilet room size is very tiny and compact.nHygiene maintenance wise I will give them 3star. (SPECIALLY MENTION THE BLANKET WAS SO DIRTY AND BAD SMELLING, THEY SHOULD CLEAN IT REGULARLY.nBUT NOT LEAST RECEPTIONIST WAS TOTALLY A BIG CHOR HE GIVE US A ROOM WITHOUT ANY BILL SO THIS MUCH OF AMOUNT HE KEPT TO HIMSELF ONLY.
