The location itself isn't that interesting, with nothing really going on in the area outside the hotel, but I appreciated the peace after staying in hotels with so much noise outside.
I paid $180 a night for a mid category room that they call an ITC One room. The staff did offer me an upgrade, but then couldn't find an available suite for me, however I was more than happy in the room that I'd paid for. The view across Kolkata's wetland area was incredible and I couldn't find fault with the room. If you've been watching my channel for a while, you'll know it's rare that I won't find anything in a hotel room that annoys me.
One of my favourite thing about staying in luxury hotels in India is that nobody uses the swimming pool. Almost always I get the whole pool to myself. Very few urban people in India are able to swim, and lounging by the pool sunbathing isn't very popular either.
The hotel gyms are rarely busy either. I always make sure to use these facilities because I enjoy it so much more than in European hotels where they're more crowded.
The room rate I booked included access to the executive lounge where they serve evening canapes. I was going to have an early night sleep, and wasn't feeling like a full dinner, so the desi treats at the lounge made the perfect light meal for me and didn't cost a penny.
It's rare that I wake up early for a hotel breakfast buffet, but after enjoying an early night in the comfy, comfy bed, I made it to the breakfast just 15 minutes after the opening time 7:00 am.
And I'm glad I did. There was so much appealing food on offer. The main sections were India, Western and Asian and I took some tasty treats from each, as well as a couple of pancakes with all the trimmings for dessert. Yum yum!
After enjoying the breakfast I took a long nap and then went out to explore the local area which seems to be some kind of Chinatown, but not "the" Kolkata Chinatown, which is on the other side of the city.

What an awesome hotel experience that was. Just as well that I only stayed for 3 nights, otherwise I'd definitely get fat from smashing that breakfast buffet and executive room snacks every day. ๐ ๐

As a Bengali I can say you're already a half-Bengali with the amount of food you eat, I still remember you said "I'm not really hungry" then ate a full buffet.

also i wanted to add that the chocolate picture idea was fantastic and very thoughtful of the hotel to do that. seems like India is full of fantastic people and food. i know when me and my wife start traveling, India will most certainly be one of our first destinations thanks to you. secondly, i just wanna say thank you for providing such awesome content, allowing us (me.. lol) to live vicariously through you. I've been following you since your infancy and its just really cool to see how far you've came and the inspiration you've brought along the way. keep putting out great content.. from your biggest westerner friend lol
