The Crescent Hotel

Our stay at the hotel was comfortable. Location is good with a 5 min walk to the beach. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful. Transport arrangement was prompt. Location close to some fine restaurants.

The hotel is centrally located but then Sohra is a small place. It could, however, be a LOT better if a little attention was paid. For one thing, all the walls in the rooms are covered with really loud wallpaper, it's overpowering. A luggage rack in the room would be nice. The rooms have no ceiling fans but old noisy pedestal fans ( they dont work, I had change my fan thrice before I got a working one) The bathroom was full of mosquitoes. While the fixtures in the bathroom are gleaming and seem new, it's designed in the worst possible way - the health faucet is on the left side of the commode, so far back that it's almost impossible to reach. There is no soap dish in the shower area, nor a towel rod within reach after showering. Fairly clean, though. No elevator either because it's not allowed (according to the staff, because of the "instability of the hills"). So, if you get a room on one of the upper floors, bags have to be lugged several flights of stairs. Food has to be ordered in advance, whether breakfast or dinner. Food is ok, pretty standard. All these shortcomings could be fixed, it seems like the hotel owners have not bothered with details. With a few changes, the hotel could offer a better experience for it's guests.

I stayed there for 4 nights and it was the best choice to create a base camp to start my all 1-day trips and relax after returning. Stuff was supernice, location right in the centre. Very sutisfied. :)

The hotel ambience and time are decent. However for any hospitality business too succeed, one needs motivated staff and their customer focused attitude. we find that salty missing in this hotel. There was a tea coffee maker in the room but the sachet for tea, coffee and milk were missing. Ee asked for it but we were told that they all are out of stock!!! after some time when we went in their hotel for food, we asked the hotel staff to give us the sachet in our room and they promptly delivered!!!! And we had more such experiences of demotivated employees. Good that our stay there was very short.
