We had made a booking, but when we arrived, the staff didn't accept that. Said that it was not available. So we had to pay more for our visit there. The bed was not so very good. Location is perfekt. But I don't think I will go there again. Sorry!

Good but a little expensive
This hotel was perfectly manageable and in a great area. My only complaint is that for the price (2000rps a night), I normally expect a bit more in India (e.g a sheet to sleep under, a restaurant, nicer service at check-in). However, this may be because this is what you have to pay for a basic hotel in a nice location in Kolkata.

Pretty Central for sites
the hotel is secure and convenient. WiFi available in a lounge area. Staff friendly enough but a little careless. The room was airless, windows padlocked so never opened. Bed back achingly hard. Most difficult detail was that the sheets and towels are so very old and grey..and so incredibly depressing. The room was clean, but so depressingly decorated. Everything was brown.

Quirky as hell, but good place to stay
This hotel is in an old colonial era building and some floors contain residents, other floors hotel rooms. There is an ancient lift (only to floor 3) with a very helpful lift operator. Reception is on the 4th floor, reception area on the 3rd floor - a little weird and hard to find. There's a nice enough rooftop garden. Location is fantastic - few hundred meters away from happening Park St, and maybe 500m away from the 'New Market' area shops and Chowringhee/Sudder st etc. It's tedious trying to get back into the hotel late - gates and room areas are locked up, no one to be found anywhere, and the floors are not marked so it was impossible to find our rooms, which are in locked corridors, Half the time I was worried about knocking on some resident's door. Correspondence with the hotel is a poor experience - I enquired about an extra bed in one room, got no response and had to end up booking an extra room in another hotel. When we got there we found extra guests in rooms were possible (Expedia had.only options for 2 per room). One bad experience - my son who was staying with his grandmother nearby visited, and stayed quite late watching tv. The next day there was an unpleasant confrontation with management who demanded extra money. We'd booked 5 rooms for 2 nights. Pretty lame! I'd still stay there though, there's something quite cool about this place. Showers were tepid/luke warm if I recall. No toilet paper supplied. No tea/coffee. Wifi in common room only, and poor.

sunflower guesthouse for two weeks
During a two week stay, my hot water heater in the room broke (which they repaired), and the light circuit in the room shorted out (which they also repaired promptly). The room was not well cleaned, but was overall peaceful considering it was in Kolkata. The hotel is just really old and stuff needs to be fixed often. The elevator man was a very nice touch.

Ageing hotel that has seen better times
We booked a double room with Expedia and then requested by e-mail a single room or extra bed for the following days for our goddaughter who decided to travel with us at the last minute. This was all confirmed by the hotel in writing. On the first night, the floor in our double room cracked alarmingly when we walked on it, and when we got out of bed the following morning the tiles came up all together. It was an improvised job of tiles on hardboard. Our goddaughter arrived late (midnight) as her plane from London was delayed and she was not let into the hotel by the night porter (despite our instructions that she would arrive late), so she spent a cold night on the steps outside. The money-grabbing hotel staff wanted full payment for our nights' lodging with the poor floor, and our goddaughter's single room which she could not use until 6am! When we informed the hotel manager what had happened, he apologised, but did not seem to have control over the daily running of the place. Other travellers beware!

Good for hot water and comfortable bed
Basic hotel but you get hat you pay for. Advise checking the room beforehand as I originally got a dark room with no windows. Also you have to pay 50 rupees each day for the wifi which is only in a social area... Bit annoying. Otherwise hot water and a comfortable bed in a great location. Roof garden is also a nice place to read a book
