As Marriotts go this is middle of the range and does have a slightly dated air about it. However, it is the first hotel I have stayed in that provides a PC in the room. High speed internet is available for 180 rupees per hour. If you have your own laptop then wireless connectivity is also available for the same price.
There are 5 restaurants in total; a steakhouse, a Chinese, a Thai, a Japanese and the Nadia coffee shop. I ate in all of them apart from the Japanese. The only slightly disappointing dish was the “Chiang Mai” on the Thai menu which was supposed to be very spicy. OK it was tasty, but not as spicy as you would get in Thailand. The buffets in the coffee shop are good value for money and the quality of the food is high (apart from the breakfast which is a bit below par, but then it is complimentary). The contents of the minibar in your room are also complimentary, but then there is no alcohol included.
The Executive lounges are a bit small, just two rooms with snacks available through the day, although there is no booze.
The swimming pool area is pleasant enough with a large pool and plenty of sun loungers. During my stay (August 2006) there was some construction going on at one end of the pool, but this did not spoil my relaxation.
If you are non-Muslim guest you get free membership of Rumours, a bar in the basement which does serve a limited range of alcoholic beverages. It is strictly cash only. It is open most days from 5.00pm to 11.00pm although it closes later on Friday and Saturdays when it is supposedly one of the top nightclubs around. The sound system looked impressive, but I did not hang around for the “action” to start. It may also be closed depending on what functions are going on in the hotel at any given time. This happened on two nights during my 6 night stay.

To spend an enjoyable evening, Muddy's Cafe is the place for the younger set to revel in an exciting atmosphere, and for the busy executives to grab a quick bite.
