a magic touch of true refinement and class
The Oberoi Grand is a superb establishment.The building is impressive and it is tastefully and richly decorated with genuine and beautiful furniture,as if handpicked with love by a knowledgeable collector.The inner garden with a perfect overflow effect swimming pool is a work of art.The service is superb,the staff is always smiling and helpful.It is one of the cleanest places I have ever been to,and not just standard hotel cleanliness,but the work of a perfectionist.Fragrant oils are burnt in the corridors,flower arrangements or just single orchids in vases,on tables,even in the ashtrays.I had a premium room which was spacious and where everything functioned perfectly: internet connection,air conditioning,etc.The hotel sent a limousine to the airport to pick me up and also to drive me when I left.The spa is a superb place to spend a couple of hours in.The services were professional,charming and quick.Checking out was less than a minute.I warmly reccomend this hotel to those visiting Calcutta.
