The value and worth of my 7 day/night stay at the Minerva Grand Kondapur; Excellent! And as a traveler to India for over 4 decades, that says a lot. Indeed, the comfort of my room, the tranquility there, and the overall cleanliness of my room, the hallways, the overall facility, alone: I would highly consider the Minerva whenever I might return to Hyderabad. But what stands ABOVE all of this: the stellar service expressed to me by the staff. This is what places the Minerva permanently on my map with Bold Letters as #1 choice to return to. There are such a number of staff who expressed their professional and kind attention to my needs. Where to begin? I had written down a list of names to keep note of, but sadly in the midst of my return journey, I lost that page. By memory: Vikram at the front desk, Prasanth at the front desk; both of whom facilitated my stay, my transportation smoothly, respectively. Also Vijay who arranged for me to have an adaptor so that I could use my computer with an American plug, for recharging. And those, each warm smiles, who served me at the Blue Fox restaurant [as well as those cheerfully taking my phone orders --chai and more-- for delivery to my room], and those who delivered meals to my room, and those who assisted me at the elevators. I very highly recommend the Minerva. And I hope, per circumstances, to greet the Minerva staff again in the not distant future. [Finally, I apologize for missing other specific names.Kind wishes.]
To put it in American terms: you're getting a Hampton Inn (but with much better breakfast) for the price of a Motel Six. Stay at this hotel if you need to be in Kondapur or near Hitec City. Great south Indian breakfast buffet, best mattress ever, good soundproofing so we didn't suffer from the incessant street noise.
