SUDHIR JAIN

January 13, 2026

Overall, a pleasant stay at The Benson Hotel. The room was very beautiful and well-equipped with a microwave and cutlery. The veg, light breakfast was delicious. The swimming pool is good—swimming goggles are recommended as the water is salty. On the second day, the room was not made. When we informed reception, they said it would be cleaned the next morning, but we checked out before that.

Older but well maintained premises. Well located to the city and convention centre. On-site dinning and bar with competitive pricing. Happy hour at the bar was good with a small taster plater supplied with your drinks (on the evening we were there). Rooms were well maintained and had the essential items.

We had such a wonderful stay! The cocktails by the pool were absolutely delicious, and the Caesar salad was the best I’ve ever had. The rooms were beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable. Everything about this place made us feel relaxed and welcomed. I would definitely come back again without hesitation!

Nice clean rooms with great views. Really tasteful updates to bathrooms and the hotel in general. Good value. Very friendly and helpful staff. Buffet breakfast recommended.

Overall, a wonderful property! The rooms are modern and comfortable, and while some of the common areas feel slightly dated, it’s nothing major. The location is fantastic—very walkable and convenient. I did notice a bit of street noise, but it wasn’t anything too disruptive. I’d definitely stay here again!
