Windamere Hotel

Windamere Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Staying at the Windamere Hotel could be called a historical experience. The hotel dates from the British Raj era and continues with that décor and style. The candle light suppers were a wonderful surprise and the food was delicious (Indian, English, and Chinese cuisine). The staff was very helpful with assisting me with planning sites to see and arranging cars/drivers. The location is GREAT. It's right above Chowastra Mall and right below Shri Mahakal Temple! Some people come to this hotel every year! I would definitely go back!"
