Wonderful Lakeside Stay

really good servicedelicious cuisineengaging gameslimited frontage
The resort offered really good service. The cuisine exceeded my expectations. Rooms provided many comforts. I found the indoor games quite engaging.
I found the hotel's lake frontage limited. It felt smaller than expected. The noisy geese also provided an early wake-up call. The resort has a limited lake frontage.

The restaurant prepared the food freshly. The chef made Murgh Malai Tikka and Tandoori Chicken. I appreciated the flavour and moistness of the chicken.

A Decent Stay, Some Issues Noted

good breakfastgarden facilitiesunwelcoming stafffood issue
I found the breakfast to be very good. The pool was also good. I also liked the garden facilities. They were well-kept.
The restaurant food was okay, but my husband became ill after eating the prawns. He only ate boiled rice for the rest of our stay. The reception staff could have been more cute. They didn't ask about our stay.
