Overall Ratings & Reviews Welcomhotel by ITC Hotels, Bay Island, Port Blair

Excellent food abd staff

Good view of the ocean from the rooms, cafe and bar. Cozy but neat and efficient rooms.

Decent place to stay

Great locations , great view of bay. Excellent service.

I think this is the best location to stay in Port Blair by a large margin, with excellent views and a quiet area without traffic. The staff are friendly and helpful. We were disappointed with the cleanliness level of the bedding though. Also, they don't give enough towels etc by default and you have to ask the staff to fix this. In house restaurant and bar are just fine. Amaya rooftop bar/restaurant in Seashell resort next door is the best place to eat in all of Port Blair.

We liked the services provided by the staff. All were very helpful from check in to check out. Particular mention should be done for the staff at the Bayleaf Cafe: executive chef Javed, and his assistants Saurav and Suresh. Pranjali and Anima helped us in printing out our plane tickets.

Horrible staff, they didn’t care about our luggage

Awful room. Room had some form of bugs in it, sheets were dirty, bathroom shower door was broken. Felt like a very cheap motel room despite the cost

Relaxing stay

The staff is good and friendly. The food was good and specially for vegetarian.

Lush green with a beautiful view of bay area.

This property was very nice in location and the view of the sea very beautiful. I was surprised that the power went off a fair few times but came back on quickly. Geeta at the Travel Desk was awesome and extremely helpful in every way.

The staff was great : especially Kaustav, Rinesh , Purna, Joyen and Manoj Kumar Mondal Were very helpful

Location

Peaceful clean property .. very courteous staff .. good food … very nice spa facility

Good view from the restaurant. Staff was very helpful. Rooms were of good size

Was an excellent trip - the property was clean and the views were amazing. The food was great also!

The tall thin light skinned guy at the front desk tried to scam us into inferior rooms even though we paid extra for the bay view rooms. He was racist, rude and kept shouting at my parents and I (we are of Indian origin) until my white husband showed up and then we suddenly had no trouble getting the rooms we paid for. The amount of racism I faced in a hotel in my own home country would have been funny if it did not make me so angry. Also, they have a 'Travel Desk' run by someone called Xavier that charges more than double the rate for car rentals anywhere else in Port Blair. We also ended up getting food poisoning, likely because the kitchen was unsanitary. The rest of the staff (other than ones at the front desk) were sweet and the property was pretty. Definitely not coming back, and I am considering lodging a complaint through the embassy.

Buffet spread was very average for both dinner and breakfast, thought the staff was able to provide additional items on demand. Sea view from the room was good. Overall it wasn't a great value for money.

Comfortable stay but the property is dated! This is one of the nicer properties in PB ( we stayed in A couple different ones). The water facing rooms are nice but the other rooms are located have open drains right in front. The bar and restaurant area are great, but the menu is selection is a bit limited. Overall a great place to stay in PB, just make sure you book one of the water facing rooms.
