The property is about 140 years old, and has rich history. Maintained impeccably with the exceptional Oberoi service. The staff was always happy to help, did not ever say no to any help we needed. Our 3 year old was well taken care of. Would highly recommend.

5.0 / 5.0
Staff were extremely courteous. Probably the best model of customer service one can ask for. Not a time goes by when the staff are not attending to your every need. This type of service and values this hotel upkeep is beyond excellence. Our kids had great fun at the activity Centre and interacting with the hotel staff. We adults had a great time with the ambience and even warmer courtesy extended by the staff in every aspect of our stay.
Once you experience Oberoi Cecil you will hardly have anything to complain about.
