Do Not Stay Here - Rooms Smell Awful
HORRIBLE experience. My family and I traveled 30 hours from New York to Kolkata and booked 2 rooms, 11 nights, to attend a family wedding. Total cost $2,382.60 (2 lakhs Indian rupees) by booking through Hotels.com. Both rooms smelled AWFUL. I am a surgeon in the US and I think the hotel's ventilation system has mold. I asked Hotels.com to cancel my booking as soon as I entered the hotel - they told me the Hyatt wanted to discuss with me directly and Hotels.com would help me get a refund. The Hyatt front desk staff then told me they could not give me a refund because I booked through Hotels.com and that I would have to speak to Hotels.com about it. I immediately booked a different hotel (JW Marriott Kolkata which was wonderful) and left the Hyatt the next morning. We had to stay for 1 night because we did not want to travel in the dark in a city unfamiliar to us. We did not stay at the Hyatt for the remaining 10 nights of the booking. After 1 month of waiting to hear back, Hotels.com informed me that the Hyatt refused to issue me a refund. Basically, the hotel decided to keep its fees for 11 nights even though we only stayed for 1 night. This is definitely not a 5 star hotel. The Hyatt Regency Kolkata and its property owner are a disgrace.
