I have stayed here many times over the last 7 years, and nothing has changed in that time. Its okay, but getting tired and a bit shabby. Biggest issue on this trip was the power cutting throughout the night, youd think this was not an issue, but every time the power came on the TV automatically came on....additionally the AC was also on and off all night...

The staff are helpful and very friendly.

The breakfast is so-so, but pretty standard for Indian hotels.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at La Marvella. Chiranjit and Guru Murthy made our stay great and tended to all of our needs. Sanath at the front desk was very helpful as well. The Golden Oak restaurant and Via Milano employees were all fantastic. We are grateful to the staff of La Marvella for helping us have a great stay.

The room was clean and comfortable. The housekeeping service was also great and timely. All staff were friendly and supportive. Food was OK for me as a vegetarian and probably the best range of Veg Sandwiches I have had anywhere.

The only thing I felt could do with a makeover was the Gym. I used it every day and the treadmills could do with a service and the weights area with an update and cleaned more often. But it is adequate for my stay.

Lovely hotel near Old part of city. Indian food in Golden Oak was fantastic - can recommend the Kerala fish curry and the Pilau. We had a few dishes and they were all amazing. Good buffet breakfast wit my option to order omelettes etc. Staff very helpful while we there and also with our onward travel. Close to South End Circle Metro so excellent for getting to other parts of the city.

Very comfortable and spacious rooms with high ceilings, modern baths. Uniformly excellent service by staff in all areas. Great breakfast spread to suit all tastes with fresh food. Italian restaurant makes excellent pizzas. Metro line is super convenient in 2minute walk and hotel arranges cars with drivers whenever needed. Higher floors are very nice and cheerful with lots of lights, lower floors naturally less bright due to surrounding buildings.

Staff at the Reception were exceptionally good. Always willing to help and friendly. Rooms were spacious and well lit.
Electrical fittings and appliances required much to be desired. Difficult to turn lights off and on, plugs cannot fit into sockets, AC was smelly, worked only on 3 settings and as the electrician assistant said room temperature could not be rises beyond 16 degrees centigrade. I was shivering so much that I ended up in hospital with fever.
Clearly not a 5 star hotel. Poor reception Staff triple up as front desk staff, porters carrying our bags, and as concuerge ordering taxis etc.
despite how good the reception staff, and it being in Jayanagar, my wife and I will not be going to stay again unless our opinion can be changed by better services and facilities.

Good location, which is a 5-min walk from the South End Circle metro station. Overall stay was good. The staff was polite and helpful. The breakfast buffet spread was good.
The spa and swimming pool was closed for renovation, which should have been mentioned on the website. The gym facilities were okay but could be better for a five-star hotel.

Good one

Everything is good just one thing, I booked the Executive room and in room details a separate bath tub is there but to my dismay it was not available in the executive room which for me very disappointing if i know that it is not in that room then I could have book the higher category. And, also they insist that it is not their fault but expedia I even told them but that it’s them who will deliver the service. Each guest has its different preferences and expectations. If a property will just follow what they offer I guess no disappointment from the guest. And, if ever expedia is at fault i guess it’s the property will be the one to correct it and from time to time update what is in their description if it still up to their standard. But, over all the service is good especially in the restaurant and the guy in the reception who is a trainee is very accommodating I did not get his name because he is not wearing a name badge.

We have stayed at La Marvella twice this year. The staff is excellent in all ways ! Very courteous and helpful. The food / rooms / service is so good that we feel sad when checking out ! It’s like home for us. The location of the hotel is very convenient too, would recommend Marvella with eyes closed !

The room was spacious and appears luxurious. The bed was excellent. The room has certain modern features, but not every feature was working well. Charging points were not upgraded and were not convenient. No USB charging points. There was a shower panel, but it was not convenient, as some wholes were blocked by rust. Couldn't plug in the coffee maker and iron, as the plugs and plug points were very different. Both TV and remote were not functioning well.

The hotel was marketed as a five star in Expedia, but it did not have the feel of a five star. Maybe a 4-star at best. The TV was not working for first few days and then I realised it was because one had to call them to activate the TV channels. There was noise in the lobby area due to some construction work. There was nothing in the mini-bar for the first few days of stay. The room was quite small. It had no carpet even. For the first few days there was no buffet as well. It was quite ordinary and not worth the money and I think Expedia should give me half the price that I was charged. Kindly consider this a request for partial refund.

Room STANK of cigarettes

The room absolutely STANK of cigarettes, despite being a non-smoking room. I complained about it, and they offered to spray the room to mask the odor. I asked for an alternate room, but they said the hotel was full, despite it being a Thursday night.

Lots of room issues

The service is fine and the staff are nice/trying, but the hotel is need of a refresh. I had huge electrical issues in my room (lights not turning off, missing controllers for managing the room, etc.) and they took over an hour to try and fix it before finally moving me to another room. Frustrating experience after paying for a “premium” room and having little sleep after a long flight. Basically IF your room is in ok shape your stay will be fine, but I wouldn’t return here again.

From my experience I wont suggest this place

I am totally disappointed with this stay, I felt like wasted my money ....! Its not worth for money they charge. And very important, the room which was shown in hotels.com & the room which we got is totally different & very small room for 3 ppl. I clearly selected option when I booked room for 3 ppl. I paid nearly Rs.5500 for my one day stay, but its not worth for even Rs.3000/day.

And we were forced to pay tips @ every place ... room service, car parking, and etc ... they are not moving away until we pay tips. When I vacated my room, the person who helped to bring my items to car, was opening telling us to give money for watchman ...

I felt very uncomfortable in this stay, from my experience I wont suggest this place for happy stay

Decent hotel for short Business trip

Stayed here a couple of times and always enjoyed it, people are helpful, rooms are fine but fridge and aircon can be noisy. Local area is busy and can be affected by traffic noise. Breakfast is pretty much okay but curries are the best part, not western foods. Room WiFi is quick enough to work on.

Great. Well located. Quiet. I'd stay there again.

Staff are great and everything about the place is good and works. Room has a single box to control the lights, heating etc. These may seem great but it makes finding the right light switch a chore - and I couldn't control or switch off the AC. If you're like me, and sleep better in almost total darkess, you'll have to spend a couple of minutes blanking the lights on all the electronic gear. The phone display itself lights up the room.

Nice hotel, but room for improvement

Room was very clean and comfortable. Bed comfortable and lots of pillows which I like. A console by the bed controls most of the lights and the curtains, however it didn't all work quite as it should. Seemed unnecessarily complicated, but not really a problem.

There was an issue with the check-in system on arrival meaning that TV and wifi was unavailable for around an hour, but after that worked ok. Remote for tv not strong enough, so couldn't actually use it from in bed. No safe in our room, despite the request in the welcome letter to keep our valuables in there. We reported this to reception staff and a safe was put in (although not fixed to anything so not sure how secure that really is).

Disappointingly no hotel bar was functioning during our stay, apparently due to a licensing issue. We were offered to have a drink in the restaurant, which we did. Not the relaxing bar atmosphere though, so after one we went elsewhere. There is a seating area in the hotel lobby that we thought would be a more relaxing place to sit, but were told we could not be served drinks there.

Breakfast selection good. Staff inconsistent with getting hot drinks to the table and taking orders for freshly cooked items. We saw some tables asked, but ended up asking at the kitchen counter ourselves. Generally staff polite and friendly but English not great. Hard to tell whether we were being understood or not.

Rooms nice, but little niggles that detracted from the experience.
