Gordon House

Gordon House is our "5-star" hotel in Pune. It is supposed to be our home for the 7 days/6 nights we will be here. It is in a mini multi-story mall called E-Square. It appears to be a nice hotel...very feng shui'd; it has a Scandinavian feel, especially the rooms; the employees, are very pleasant. However, we have encountered, ummm.... a few problems...

  • only 5 hangers in the room
  • hardly any TP in the room
  • cable TV with antenna reception-type problems
  • teenie-bopper mall downstairs
  • broken internet access
  • broken internet access
  • broken internet access
  • malfunctional lights
  • brown water... I know the water isn't great here, but some mornings, the water has come out of the tab brown; I let it run a few minutes and it looks "normal" again. I was not the only one this happened to.
  • broken phones
  • loud construction at night
  • loud music at night
  • loud dog barking at night
In any case, they need some work before they can truly call themselves a 5-star hotel in my opinion.

Anyway, below are some pictures of my hotel room.
