Food is great but room is well below average
Honestly, it’s not the best. Definitely not worth 13k per night. The room’s condition was extremely modest. Reminded me one of those hopin-hop out commercial hotels. The bathroom is all stains and cracks on the walls etc. The bathroom curtain didn’t work and the switch was broken. The staff guy himself struggled to operate it. But the service is really good. A couple of them didn’t know the etiquette but they didn’t seem disrespectful. It’s just that they weren’t trained well.…otherwise very good. Food is FABULOUS. Whoever managing the kitchen, deserves a raise. Overall, it’s ok but unlikely to spend 13k per night for those rooms. Rather come by for lunch/breakfast.

Substandard NOVOTEL
There was thumping noise in the room till midnight on all 3 nights I stayed here. The hotel staff first said it’s from the banquet hall, then they changed their stance and said it’s from a INOX theatre right behind the hotel. It was apparent they cannot do anything about it. So if you want to have a quite room and wish to sleep before the INOX has had its run till midnight, look for some place else. If putting up with a rumbling sound reverberating through the building is something that you like, this place has plenty of it.

Novotel Vizag is a great modern hotel. Rooms were clean and staff was fantastic. Special. Shout out to the front desk manager who was very accommodating to all our needs. Even though a very busy hotel, when staff remembers your name, you always feel special. Second shout out to the dining room manager who had an amazing and contagious smile at all times. Ask her to tell you about her hometown Darjaleen, famous for its tea and she beams with pride. Will definetly stay again.
