A Good Lunch Buffet

I recently enjoyed the lunch buffet at Altair, and it was a grand affair. The appetizers were a good variety, and the main course had a generous spread of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. The mutton dishes were particularly impressive, and the dessert selection featuring baked mihidana and choco mud pie truly satisfied my sweet tooth. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a wonderful dining experience while soaking in the amazing view from the rooftop.

Impressive Fitness Facilities

During my stay, I made sure to visit the gym, and I must say it is one of the best I've encountered in the city. The senior trainer on site was incredibly knowledgeable, and he even helped me improve my posture during my workout. The facilities were well-maintained, making it a perfect spot for fitness enthusiasts looking to maintain their routine while traveling.

Refreshing Pool Experience

The infinity pool at Altair is nothing short of amazing! I had a lovely morning lounging by the pool, enjoying the beautiful views of the city. The heated jacuzzi is the cherry on top, making it an ideal place to unwind after a busy day. My kids especially loved it as they splashed around, making our stay even more enjoyable.

My stay at this boutique hotel was quite an experience! The rooms were spacious and well-maintained with beautiful views, perfect for anyone traveling to Kolkata for work or leisure. The dining options, while decent, could use a bit more variety, and the dining area had a slightly off-putting atmosphere for evening meals. Overall, the hotel provides good value for money, though there are a few quirks to be aware of.

Altair is a boutique hotel with stunning panoramic views and a vibrant rooftop restaurant, Capella. While the atmosphere is fantastic and the staff is attentive, the food experience leaves much to be desired. The vegetarian menu particularly needs improvement, and overall, the dining options fell short of expectations.

I had a fantastic weekend at this boutique hotel, where smooth check-in greeted me at 4 am and the city views from my room were stunning. The room was lovely with a spacious bathroom, and the breakfast buffet was one of the best I've experienced. The infinity pool on the 20th floor was a highlight too. However, the security issue from a previous stay was concerning, as it made me cautious about the safety measures in place during my visit.
