Ethnotel, Kolkata Airport

We stayed for 2 nights at this hotel. This was one of the best stay we had. The hall mark of this stay was their food . I have no words to describe how tasty their food was. OMG they had so many items in breakfast that you name it and they had it. They must have an excellent cook who made every dishes so palatable and tasty. At least for the food they deserve 10 stars. If for no other reasons one must stay here for their food. You cannot go wrong for staying here. We are looking forward to staying again when we return to Kolkata

Disappointing Stay – Overcharged and Poor Experience I initially booked a room through Expedia for $23, including taxes. However, after completing my payment by card, the final charge was $41. I contacted Expedia about this discrepancy but have not received a response. Upon check-in, I clarified this issue with the hotel, but they were unhelpful and said there was nothing they could do. Additionally, as a Maldivian citizen, I do not require a visa, yet the hotel insisted on seeing one. I repeatedly explained this to them, even showing the information online that Maldivians get a 90-day visa-free stay. This led to a frustrating and unwelcoming debate during check-in. The room itself was very disappointing. The photos online did not match the actual condition of the room. The bed was extremely uncomfortable and the room was so cold it felt damp. I barely slept due to the cold and the uncomfortable bed. The bathroom was not clean or well-maintained either, adding to the unpleasant experience. I was looking for an affordable option for a one-night stay, but I ended up paying more than expected for a place that fell far below acceptable standards. Overall, I’m very dissatisfied with this experience.

It was nice, but the fare was quit more.

I have always chosen Ethnotel, but I am very disappointed this time. After entering the room, I realized it was not ready; the bathroom wasn't cleaned properly, and they didn’t provide any toilet paper. Some very basic amenity items that I always used to receive from this hotel are missing this time. Overall, it was not a good experience. I hope the property will rectify these shortcomings sooner rather than later.

Great experience

I am satisfied with service

Ethnotel, Kolkata is a very nice property close to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport in Kolkata, India. The rooms are good, staff members are very helpful. The quality of food and beverages from the in-property restaurant is pretty good. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who likes to stay close to the Kolkata International Airport.

Comfortable hotel close to the airport. Excellent staff who took care of all of our needs.

no foot mat in the bathroom and bed room. Bath room was look like dirty. Otherwise food was very good, staffs are very polite, friedly and their approach was very good.

Convenient to airport, and very clean, especially compared to other hotels in area.

Excellent service

As I stay in USA , I always trust this hotel from parents who lived in India for their air travel need , they are awesome , safe and very good

Vicinity....clean Service was helpful Food was good, but a little expensive

Staff were helpful and could accommdate me in an alternative room that was peaceful

It is conveniently located by the airport. A good value forthe money.

Itis a nice hotel to stay. Staff were friendly and helpful and courteous.

Close to the airport and excellent breakfast. Very good and helpful staff

The staff were super helpful. Obviously not five-star-but very good value, and I would stay here again .

I missed a few basic things in this hotel. The bathroom had no space near the basin to keep anything, the drainage was poor so the water from the shower would flow into the toilet area and no toilet roll holder - a first for me! I would have expected a safe in the hotel but there was none - not in the rooms nor at the reception to keep the valuables. Overall, a poor 3 star!

Exceptional. This hotel has a class (period). Very neat and clean property, nice and friendly stuff, well decorated rooms. Food in the breakfast doesn't have the most amazing buffet lineup, but it won't leave one hungry, for sure. Lots of options and to top the buffet spread it also has a made to order dosa and omelette counter. Dinner menu pretty nice as well, they don't offer buffet but their made to order menu has tons of varieties and items are tasteful - their chicken tikka and fish tikka from the appetizer menu is a must try. And for vegetarians, crispy corn is a wise choice. From entry menu, their fish delicacy is worth a mention and ofcourse don't forget to try the sweet yogurt. Ohh and the stuffs make the food tastes even better with the splendid care. Aside from food, hotel's room service needs a mention as well. They ensured our room is sparkling clean every morning, and never forgot to refill the bottled water. Front desk is accommodating, ask for something above and beyond - they would do their best. Ethnotel, many thx! For everything.
