“Best Hotel in Bangalore”
The Oberoi is well recognized as the best hotel in Bangalore. Service is impeccable. I love the no-tipping policy; instead, guests are welcome to leave a gratuity at the end of their stay that is shared among the staff. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Bangalore.
“Excellent premises and service”
This was our second time at the Oberoi. The hotel was well maintained. The staff are very courteous and friendly. They went out of their way to be helpful. Also it is in a very convenient downtown location. Even though there is a lot of construction going on around the hotel, the rooms were very quiet. Last time, I used the fitness room, but did not this time. I love the Polo Club restaurant ! We had a lovely time and I would highly recommend the Oberoi.
“Oberai Hotels/ Taj Hotels”
During my recent travel to India this time, I stayed at Taj Hotel in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala state, India ( formerly Known as Trivandrum) & at Oberai Hotel in Bengaluru, ( formerly Known as Bangalore) Karnataka state, India. These are two premier Hotel Chains of India. Unfortunately because of the recent Terrorist attack on these Hotels in Bombay, India, the occupancy was low. I have also stayed at The Taj Heritage in Bombay in the past. But these are excellent Hotel chains and their service is superb. I hope they reduce their prices to encourage tourists. The taxes are pretty high. It would help if the Breakfast was included with the rates.
“Great Place”
We were pampered!
“Recommend this hotel in Bangalore!”
I've stayed in several places in Bangalore and The Oberoi is without a doubt the very best. The rooms are confortable and the service is first class! Highly recommend a visit to their gym, the equipment is top of the line!!
“Staff goes that extra 5 star mile”
Very nice and comfortable Hotel. Staff goes that extra mile that you fee is so many times missing in 5 start hotels. I was very happy with what i got from this Hotel
“Fantastic Four Star Hotel with Great Garden View (but not 5 star!!)”
The room was disappointingly old and not renovated--not at all a five star room. While they did try to accommodate us, the rooms were all not renovated. Also the halls are outdoors which gives the hotel a "motel" feel. The saving grace are the great views of the garden, the balconies that overlook the gardens (where we had breakfast every morning), the beautiful gardens for morning walks, and the great service.
“average”
I can say a standerd 4 star hotel !!
“BLR”
There was building work going on outside my room and this continued into the night. Otherwise the hotel was good
