My stay at Hotel Grand Residence was underwhelming, with several facilities that felt outdated (like the lift that was out of service). While the location was good and the front desk staff were friendly, the overall cleanliness left much to be desired. I enjoyed the evening meal at the rooftop restaurant, but the breakfast was quite disappointing.

I had a mixed experience at Hotel Grand Residence. The location was decent, being close to the DLF area, but the cleanliness and overall maintenance left much to be desired.
