    Decent Hotel, but nothing special

    Recently built hotel near MG road. Clean, modern room of regular size for Europe. US hotel rooms are usually larger. Restaurant food was quite good, both breakfast (free buffet) and dinner. Wine is a ripoff, as everywhere in Bangalore. Hotel grounds are unremarkable - Oberoi is much better. There is...

    over-priced

    Ista is good

    I stayed in Ista for 4 nights on a business trip to Bangalore with colleagues. I liked it! Ista is not too big hotel. Rooms are not very big but still well functioning. The decor is even scandinavic, naturally with an Indian twist. The scandinavian twist means the rooms have...

    Loved the Omni

    We have just returned from a week at the Ritz Carlton. The hotel is magnificent and we have never experienced such incredible service before. It was so lovely that it was hard to drag ourselves away from the hotel to go to the theme parks at all. In fact we...

    Lovely hotel, fantastic service

    My husband had to come to Bangalore on business, so I decided to travel with him for the first week so we could share a holiday. We chose the Ista as it was our 5th wedding anniversary and it looked lovely (especially the pool). And it totally lived up to...

    This is NOT a 5 star Hotel ! At best it a 3 star hotel with inconsistent service

    Nice looking hotel in a filthy looking area. Rooms are extremely small unless you stay in a suite. Has two restaurants with good food but one of the restaurants opens with resricted hours. Service is highly inconsistent. I stayed there for three days and the service varied from excellent to...

    Fantastic place = strategic location

    A very nice property in the space once occupied by the LIDO theatre off MG Road. Liked the stay and the restaurants. People with a great taste and flair for a good life would really love this place... though Good things come in at a price :-)...
