Shangri-La Eros, New Delhi

Shangri-La Eros, New Delhi

8/10 Good
"The property is clean and well maintained. The breakfast buffet was tasty and had a wide variety. I really enjoyed Mr Chai in the lobby. Two areas that were a let down: the service at the Club Lounge and the damp feeling in the room. First, the service of the club lounge felt awkward. Some people were helpful but others had bad energy. I even heard one server ask the guy at the table in front of me if he needed anything in particular because she was busy and had other things to do. His reply: he just wanted to say hello. Awkward. Second, the room had a damp feeling and smell. The bedding and towels all felt not fully dry. Even the bench by the window had this same wet feeling."
