A beautiful hotel with amazing amenities. Very impressed with their “green” initiatives such as refillable glass bottles for drinking water, no plastic bags or accessories. 5 stars ⭐️ all the way! ##### Mary Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Peggy Jan 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel room was nice and very clean. I stayed here with two friends and booked a suite, which included breakfast. The three of us checked in with our passports and IDs, which took a while. They put our luggage through a bag scanner and then separately scanned our bodies individually. This whole process took longer than airport security. The next morning I went down to breakfast alone while my two friends were getting ready. While I was having coffee, the manager at the restaurant came over and told me that he overheard I ask for a table for 3\. I said “yes, the other guests in my suite will be joining shortly.” He then told me I had to leave the restaurant because I had unregistered guests. I was very upset, and immediately spoke to the front desk who said that the restaurant manager had just made a mistake. They were very apologetic, but it really ruined the experience at this hotel for me. I think for the cost of the hotel, you could find better service in Bangalore. ##### Peggy Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ravi Dec 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 5\* hotel which can be better This hotel is very nice. Definitely worth the 5\*. Most of the staff at the hotel are really welcoming, nice and knowledgeable. Majority of them will go the extra mile to make your stay at the hotel really comfortable. Rohit who works at reception is exceptional. He is such a great employee and every morning he took time out to greet me, shake my hand and ask how I am and if I have any issues/questions. He provides top quality service and he is the reason why ITC Gardenia should be rated 5\* purely down to his hard work. The room is lovely and big. Everything about the room is fine, bed, shower etc etc. the restaurants in the hotel are great and at good price and the canapés from 18:00 - 20:00 is a great idea. This hotel is very close to local attractions. The only thing I don’t like about the hotel is few staff members who work at the spa/gym. They aren’t helpful and feel like they are watching what I do. The spa is not recommended. I had a facial done and it did not last the allocated time and generally I don’t feel it was good. I had 20% discount and with them knowing that, I feel they just gave me the most expensive treatment to cover that discount. If Rohit is the honest member of staff, the staff at the gym/spa ruin it. I would stay at this hotel again and again but will for sure not make the same mistakes of using the gym/spa. ##### Ravi Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sooraj Dec 30, 2023 Disliked: Staff & service The property is spacious but poorly organized and maintained. Carpets everywhere is dirty. Towels don't seemed to be cleaned properly. The food is delicious but that's all. The breakfast restaurant staff is not attentive and there is a lot of staff but not organized so they stand and chit chat in the centre of the restaurant. Multiple times different waiters took the same order and never showed up. Breakfast buffet requires few items to be ordered and the staff is not organized by table so nobody or multiple waiters stop by the table. The filtered water upset my stomach so I switched to bottled water. The person who checked me in on the first day was good, all other front desk staff are not trained for international travelers - no line, take forever, rude. I requested my invoice twice in advance and still it took the front desk 15-20 minutes. The spa staff is good. Gym requires an upgrade and some bars have rust. Restaurant staff, front desk is not attentive and service is poor compared to other similar properties. ##### Sooraj Stayed 13 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra Dec 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great hospitality overall!
