I've been to several ITC properties and this by far has been the second worst after Fortune Select JP Cosmos.||Let's go back to when I booked. There was a rate disparity and they honoured their Best Rate Guarantee and also upgraded my room by 1 level and added complimentary lunch and dinner for all the guest. Thanks to Ms/Mrs Mahima Singh and the general manager for this and let me express that I'm really thankful to them. This was the most ITC thing so far and then started the not so ITC things one by one.||I mailed them asking for an airport pick up and they sent a price list for only Honda City and didn't let me know that there was luxury cars available too. So I had to decline it. ||Fast forward to day of arrival, I got a text from Jimmy Joseph regarding airport pick up and he was the one to inform me that they do indeed have a good car, I agreed readily.||My chauffeur was Nixxon, and it was by far the worst I've ever received from a hotel, he didn't greet us, well okay, not a problem. He played songs that we didn't like and despite asking to change it, the same was not paid heed to. We also asked him to set the AC to a more comfortable temperature but nope. Honestly, when I'm paying 1000Rs a kilometre, I expect at least this much of comfort.||We reached the hotel and checked in, check in was smooth no hiccups there. The manager also sent us all each a warm cup of tea and informed us of the previously aforementioned upgrades. Thank you.||We checked in to our room, it was well appointed but the upkeep wasn't that great honestly. Plus there was no handwash nor a room freshner in the bathroom, that's a bummer.||Now, we called welcomassitance regarding Luxury hours, and the first person was clueless. The second person however comfirmed it and we enjoyed the same.||During luxury hours, there was no option for cocktails and only neats, okay I guess?||Lunch and dinner was good, we were well attended by everyone especially Mr Vijay, he is really wonderful and one of the highlights of our stay. Pradip was great to but Mr. Vijay was really really awesome! There should be more people at all hotels like him! The food was average since some were really delicious some were very meh.||Now during checkout, the first person was just clueless about ITC GCs. Just clueless! The second person Mr. Biraj Saha was the first to assure us of redemption and accepted the checkout. The duty manager of the day, Ms/Mrs Pooja Tiwari took care of the rest like card hold etc. Thanks to both of them! Oh yes and the first person charged me more for that same horrible pick up although upon informing, he rectified the same. For this I didn't get to enjoy a fulfilling lunch but my family did and seeing this Ms/Mrs Ruhila handed me a takeaway, thanks to her she informed us of various activities too. She's nice.||The hotel as a whole didn't have a proper upkeep and was filthy from the outside wirh algae all over the exteriors. Didn't cause a problem to us but it's unexpected ftom a 5 star hotel and just looks bad. The washrooms in the pool area weren't taken care of seemed unhygienic.||Honestly, I feel like raising a complaint with ITC but again some people really made my stay better it would be bad if they suffered. But I'm pretty sure I am not coming back here. The hotel is not a representation of what ITC should be. So like my title says, bad hotel held up by only few individuals.
