Sunflower hotel/guesthouse

ronzesty · Mar 9th, 2008, 04:53

I've been searching through IndiaMike as well as the internet to find some contact information/rate info for this hotel that has been highly recommended in various books. Does anybody have any information about the sunflower hotel? I know very little about it, other than the fact that the elevator is "interesting"

That alone would make it worth checking out I'd say

Er, sorry, no, I don't know the place. Hopefully someone else will.

most gracious for your information. Have you ever stayed there? Good place to stay in Kolkata? I've checked the hotels section of IM and have attempted to contact Hotel Victerrace with little success through email. Regardless, the phone number will go a long way and many thanks.

My husband stayed in the Sunflower in January and liked it. He mentioned in an email the 'antiquated lift' and 'equally antiquated lift attendant'!
If you'd like me to ask him anything specific about it I will.

Thank you everyone for the information. Called sunflower just now and reserved a room. IMers make travel so easy. I am very thankful to you all.

Although I speak very little urdu and absolutely no hindi, I was able to call the guest house from my workplace and book a room. The man on the other end was very helpful and our hin-glish was my first of many such conversations I plan to have when in India. Thanks again!

That's Great, your urdu will do fine here
in India, There is not much difference in
spoken Hindi and urdu.

Enjoy your stay in India

Cheers

Hi there,

Does anyone know if they have an email address or a website to book reservations?

Thanks!

If you just search the web for +"sunflower guest house" +kolkata (maybe try calcutta as well), you'll find it listed on the web alright, so you may find contact details there.

Ah, there's a phone nr. in post #3 above even I see now.

djtlee · Sep 26th, 2008, 20:02
