The house was beautiful. Prasad, our concierge, was super helpful. All staff at their sister hotel were friendly too. We had full use of their restaurant and facilities.

A great experience to stay in a house rather than a hotel. I loved having breakfast in the house rather than walking over to Fort Bazaar. Thank you Prasad for taking such great care of us.
