Really good Culinary Delights

“Dining at the hotel was an experience to remember! I indulged in the authentic Indian cuisine at the Bombay Brasserie, where the flavors reminded me of food straight from India. The buffet breakfast was a feast of options, including my favorite, Masala Dosa, which was prepared to perfection. Every meal I had was really good.” view full review
