We had an amazing experience in the Rajbari! A beautiful place with a very comfortable stay. The hospitality was warm and genuine, and the service was excellent. I’d definitely return! The only thing I would mention, is the outside of the facility doesn’t match the inside. The first impression being a rather disappointing one! If we didn’t step in and experienced the place, one look of the outside will give an idea of a low end residence. Not very clean and definitely underwhelming with the dirty pond in front. Hope the next time we come back the outside will be just as stunning as the inside Service: 5

12 members of our family made an enjoyable overnight trip in March. The Rajbari is luxurious and elegant, and offers an unique experience. Even the cynics in our group were won over. Designers have retained the original stylish and graceful charm with unclad pillars and flaking khirkis, without being tempted into remaking it into an opulent mansion. Overall design and decor is impressively consistent with the Rajbari image - furniture, chandeliers, paintings, photographs, and additions. Service is not perfect but sweet and well intentioned. Staff tried to make our stay comfortable in every way. Food is authentic and well cooked with a few lapses - our koraishuti kochuris had no koraishuti. The kitchen found it difficult to serve everyone at about the same time - waits could be long. Breakfast was delicious, served in a gorgeous conservatory type building overlookingthe water. The car ride to the Rajbari was harrowing through crowded streets. Our one night stay was lovely; our group wouldn't have wanted to extend our stay as the activities - boat rides, etc., are disproportionately pricey. The movement to preserve our history, even though commercially, is praiseworthy and heartening. Our mansion tourguide was informative but knew little about the Rajbari's 300 year history. Overall, we had a lovely, comfortable stay and thank the staff. Service: 4

We visited this magnificent heritage property last weekend to celebrate my mom’s retirementthey way they helped with the cake cutting process is much appreciable . The property is a hidden gem to witness the essence of a rajbari. The ambiance, the quintessential Bengali food ( one of the best buffet we truly enjoyed our fish thali & zamidari thali) and the beyond the world hospitality defines “The Rajbari Bawali”Finally a special thanks to Subhajit & Susmita for making this experience more memorable. Hats off to the hospitality you both and all your colleagues catered. Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 3 Hotel highlights: Luxury
