LaLiT is a historic building, near the colonial seat of power when Calcutta was the capital of the British Raj. The traffic around the hotel is chaotic, not to mention crowded. But the staff were wonderful. My husband and I enjoyed our stay, and will stay there again when we are next in Kolkata.

Although I arrived late, and the hotel was at capacity due to the IPL opening game, I received very quick and efficient service from the reception staff. My suite was beautiful (Victoria suite) and every moment at the LaLit Great Eastern felt like a journey through time and history. The food was also good and the staff at Alfresco were helpful and friendly. I would absolutely recommend here for foreigners.

The daily breakfast buffet was good but the service was extremely poor. The waiters & waitresses didn’t seem to really care even set the table properly. On numerous occasions, cutlery wasn’t set on the table, we had to get it ourselves.

The stay in the hotel was average. We are very disappointed by the overpriced food in the hotel restaurant. The ala-carte food price were exorbitant. We have traveled many places in India and stayed in five star hotels but nowhere we had this experince of overpriced food. Either you take their buffet or pay exorbitant ala carte price. Many people are not fond of buffet food but there were no options but to take it. On a positive note, Rajib in the dining area was most helpful and went over and above his duties. Kudos to him for such a great customer service.

We stayed at this hotel twice during our recent stay and received an upgrade on our return visit which was very welcome. Very well located for exploring the centre of old Kolkata and very good facilities. Staff are very helpful and an excellent concierge in particular who could not have been more helpful. Good selection in the dining room and extensive buffet option. The only downside is that the bar is in a separate building and lacked any atmosphere when we were there. Would happily stay here again.

Good top end hotel albeit rather a way out of Kolkata city centre in an area with little to do but convenient for airport. Recommend Club rooms for good quality lounge access and free airport transfer. Rooms well looked after with good cleaning staff, less so around pool area where difficult to get a drink before 1pm as staff still clearing up from night before despite residents trying to relax

Staff is trained to be always cordial and greet every guest, must give lots of credit to the employees. But the property itself doesn't have high quality amenities as they seem to be wanting to save some bucks. Water comes in plastic bottles unlike glass like Hilton or Vivanta limited selection of tea's and dinner is quite pricey for the area in my opnion.
