Owais at the front desk stood out for his charm, efficiency and courtesy. The Satvik thali at the Varuna stood out as it was absolutely delicious. The welcome was somewhat lacking and half hearted - didn’t get the drum and sweets, which I saw others receive. The rooms were clean, comfortable and turned in nicely at night. Access to the steam room was somewhat cumbersome and tedious. Having recently stayed at the Jaagir Manor, Pilibhit house, and Anandkashi - I missed the high tea.
