We went there for a brief stay during Basantotsav 2013. As you enter the property you get a sense of plushness but as you go through the corridor and finally to the room, it changes. There is evidence of lack of maintenance everywhere. Paint falling off from walls, old furniture stacked in corridors, heaps of junk here and there. The... More

nicely landscaped and good looking at first but the impression changed as one goes round the property. it is old and poorly maintained. unfortunately, there is no other place near by. average food quality, better service. seems like they are trying to improve but so many things are wrong that large capital infusion will be needed, mere cosmetic dressing will...

I'm glad I'm out of this place. They pretend to be an upmarket hotel but the poor maintenance and neglect make you want to run away. On the first day I had to complain that both my sink and shower drainage were blocked. They "attended" to the former brilliantly: from that day on, the sink drained straight on to my... More

Terrible is the Word! Shabby, Run Down, Poorly Serviced, Horrible food, Pool with Yellow water, are a few adjectives one could use for them too! Oh yes, they're certainly overpriced too! Stay here if you want your holiday to go bad!

This hotel is quite expensive for the service it offers. Rooms are fine and ensuite, bathroom aren't really comfortable and clean. the building is nice and the hotel has a nice garden with swimming pool (I don't know if it works). Location is twenty minutes by foot from the university. The restaurant is really good: don't miss the all-you-can-eat meals!

We went to Mark and Meadows for the second time,it has improved a bit as far as maintenance is concerned. Rooms are of two types as we found out this time,one with shower cubicles and the other with bath tubs in the bathroom. The rooms are almost of the same type,this time we got a room beside a small pond... More

Nice place to stay at Shantiniketan. Friendly staff always trying to help you. Greenery all around you. Acceptable food, but could have been better. They pick you up and drop you at Railway Station. This service is compimentary.

We did not book our hotel stay in advance. Once we reached Shantiniketan we checked out Park Guest House and Raater Tara Diner Rabi and after being thoroughly disappointed seeing those two places, we finally landed in Mark n Meadows and what a relief it was! Before I write further, I do want to mention that the excellent rating for... More

We stayed at Mark & Meadows for 2 days during our last visit and find this hotel to be a bit overpriced. Given its ambiance and property location, the hotel is surely worth a stay. But looks like the management has not done its maths well and the packages designed won't do justice to most of the travelers. However, this... More
