FabExpress Deccan Heritage - Nr Iskon Temple , Abids

Deccan Heritage Hotel – Hyderabad A Picture is worth 1000 words – Deccan Heritage Hotel, Hyderabad is the complete opposite and proves the proverb wrong. I booked this hotel primarily based on the photos showcased in their website (Fabhotel Deccan Heritage) ***** with the ratings/reviews. Everything was the opposite. Walls were damp and stained with water marks, Mattress sinks in as the springs are very old, sheets with stains, only the walking pathways were clean – the rest were dusty and dirty ..and oh no ..if you dropped something, never look below the bed – it was filled with garbage, water bottles, dust and everything. Chairs are cracked and about to break anytime. Some lights don’t work. TV channels don’t work as deactivated – complained many times but never did anything. Door needs to be locked else will slide open. 2 towels only if you keep on asking now and then else will be leaving with 1 towel only. Breakfast – bought from some nearby shop and delivered to you – limited options. If you ask for 4 cups of tea – they will deliver only 3 cups. Never walk down the staircase to go down – it smells of urine everywhere, all the unwanted things scattered everywhere, like a scary dungeon. Bathroom has only one light functioning – above the mirror – bright and able to cover but the one in ceiling does not work. The cleanliness and maintenance is very poor. Wifi works only at the lobby and coverage in the rooms is limited. I will never stay in this hotel again. My previous stay at FabExpress in Chennai (PAS residency) based on photos was my 1st experience and a good one. The second booking in Hyderabad via FabHotel is totally the opposite – again based on the photos shared on the website, i was mislead. Very Disappointed.

We went there on Oct 2022 and stayed 4 days. When we reached there the person at reception was looking at me he was checking his phone not attending me. Then after giving details I asked about the food and laundry service. He said we will get normal items like Dosa, Idly, Poori like that and for laundry they said they have it, there is a person opposite to road where they give for laundry. When I reached room the cleanliness is not that good. There were dust on pillows and window curtains which comes over our bed. Also the main door was bit hard to open/close, AC was not working properly it won't be cold even if I set AC at 20 or 19. Bathroom door's lower edges were like brush and mushrooms were grown on behind the doors. Next day I asked them to for laundry another person was there at reception and he said they don't do laundry, I said yesterday while check-in the other person said it is there and the person is across the road. The guy said the person across the road is not doing laundry and he informed this person only. I asked the person who was on reception when I checked-in. That person you give the cloths ... we will get it done. I think the second person didn't want to do those kind of work. The next day I gave the key and asked them to clean the room, correct the issues of AC, Door, bathroom etc. They said it will be done before I return. When I returned I saw the same issues which I mentioned above, also they didn't even change the bathroom towels. All the pillow covers were Yellowish colour from the day one of my stay and didn't smell good. They gave me the dress after laundry on the same day I gave them and it didn't look like washed properly. I can still smell my sweat on my shirt and seems like they just put it in water, ironed and gave it back. Last but not the least is about food. The food quality is below average. First day I ordered dosa and they gave me masala dosa. When I asked the same with the second person at reception he said. If we ask for Dosa they give the masala with it. I told them "Then you should have told us". Then he said I should have asked them about all these. I told him when I checked-in I asked and they said just dosa not with masala. He was not agreeing to what I say. The rawa idly was also not that good. After eating Poori we got indigestion problem. They gave the wifi when we asked them. The attitude I see in them is like what we see in Government Offices. "All are our requirement and responsibility. If you want you stay or you can go some where else" kind of attitude. Only good thing I remember is that they arranged Innova at low price for Visiting "Ramoji Film City".
