FabHotel Kzar Select
Helpful and friendly staff are frequently noted as a strong point. Yet, there are also occasional complaints about inefficient room service or lapses in management. Overall, the staff is seen as a highlight amidst other inconsistencies Mixed sentiments here — while some find the rooms clean and spacious, others report occasional cleanliness lapses
FabExpress Nest
Stayed with them for about a week. Had a pleasant experience. Friendly staff, decent (Indian) breakfast and great location. Park street is 5 minutes walk away and New Market area is about 10 minutes by auto. It's on 2nd floor of a residential building with ample food options nearby. There were a few nagging things but overall a good budget stay.
FabHotel Lake View Topsia
The location and service is very satisfactory. The staff were very friendly. I would definitely refer this hotel to everyone. Which is near by science city (walkable distance from hotel). One thing that could be improved is the facilities inside the rooms. In some rooms the bed sheets had stain and remotes are not working properly. In couple of rooms the AC had some issues like water leakage. If these things are taken care, then it would be even better.
FabHotel Prime Kzar Corporate
Curtains inside bathroom as well as on windows are too much dirty, room floors are too much sticky and hair are all over the floor means no proper cleaning, no toilet paper are available here, bed sheets are too dirty and unorganized manner. I will suggest you, if anyone go to stay there, without proper inquiry don't book online. But one thing is absolutely good, that was staff, so humble, kind and cooperative.
FabHotel Kzar Select
I had an unpleasant experience at this hotel. The room itself was average, but I was very disappointed with the overall stay. The room had cockroaches, the geyser was not working, and the service was poor and extremely slow. Despite raising concerns, the response from the staff was not satisfactory. I had booked the hotel online and was not aware of the location in advance, but unfortunately, the locality also did not feel nice or comfortable. Overall, I would not recommend this place due to the lack of cleanliness, poor service, and unsuitable location.
FabHotel Prime Kzar Corporate
No dental kits, no fridge, no lockers, open bathroom windows with no glasses, untidy smelly rooms and bed sheets. You’ll keep scratching the moment you’ll lie down on the bed. Except location nothing is good in this hotel. You’ll see hotel staff lying down on the sofas in the lobby. Shady hotel. Don’t book
