Elegant Escape in Palette Bhimpore Daman

Don't be fooled by the photos on apps or Google. This is a very old hotel, the rooms smell bad, the furniture is old, and the bathrooms are completely dirty. They don't serve breakfast or provide towels either. It's not worth a penny, and I wouldn't book it for a family. Very bad hotel, beware.

The rooms were decent, though not as hygienic as you'd expect, and there were no toiletries. The booking.com app made it look like a very good hotel with all amenities, but many were missing. I'd only suggest staying here if there are no other options. It's outside the main city, with not much nearby, and the front desk staff were rude and seemed uninterested. I booked through the booking.com app, which showed no payment option. Staff first said they only had one night because the booking had come through the oyo app and wasn't confirmed without prepayment. They later accepted the two nights I'd booked, but charged about 3800 rs instead of the roughly 3300 shown on booking.com. They first put us in a four-person room, then after five minutes told us to move to a two-person room. Staff coordination and attention were lacking.

September 2025. The pool was clean, so bachelors might consider it, but this place isn't worth it for families. The bathrooms are very old, it's far from the beach, and the property feels haunted.

The room service was just okay, and this place is far from the beaches and tourist spots. Also, don't count on the booking price staying put. It can go up anytime, even after you've booked.
