Indore's Hidden Gem: Hotel Pavilion — Unforgettable Luxury Awaits!

Indore's Hidden Gem: Hotel Pavilion — Unforgettable Luxury Awaits!
Indore's Hidden Gem: Hotel Pavilion - Beyond the Brochure (and the Buffet!)
Okay, alright, let's get real. Indore. You're thinking maybe a quick business trip? A pit stop on your way somewhere more exciting? Well, hold your horses because I just got back from Hotel Pavilion, and let me tell you, it’s not just a hotel; it's an experience. Prepare for a review, because this thing's gonna get real! I'm not going to lie, I went in expecting…well, a hotel. I came out feeling like I'd stumbled onto a tiny, sparkling island of calm in the heart of a bustling city.
First Impressions & Accessibility - Getting In, Getting Comfortable (and Seriously, That Elevator!)
Let's start with the basics, okay? Because you want to know if you can actually get in the place. Accessibility – they've clearly put some thought into it. Wheelchair accessible it is. Elevator? Check! And a smooth, modern one at that (important, trust me, especially after a long day of wandering). I'm talking about easy access, clear signage, and a general feeling of being welcomed, regardless of physical limitations. That really sets the tone.
Internet & Tech - Wi-Fi Heaven (Seriously, Free!)
Okay, let's cut to the chase. Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! Praise be! And it's actually good Wi-Fi. No more of that dial-up era of waiting! Internet access is solid, whether you want to be glued to your phone or need to get some work done with that Internet [LAN]. Good for business folks and those of us who need to binge-watch Netflix.
Cleanliness and Safety - The Sanitization Saga (with a Happy Ending)
Now, look, in this day and age, everyone's a bit paranoid about germs. I'm no exception. So, I was pleasantly surprised by the Cleanliness and safety. They're not just paying lip service here. Seeing the Anti-viral cleaning products in action was reassuring. Daily disinfection in common areas, Room sanitization between stays, seriously, you name it, they’re doing it. I even saw the staff with their masks and gloves. Honestly, it made me feel like they cared, not just about the cleanliness but about me. They even had Hand sanitizers everywhere. Feeling safe is a big deal.
Rooms: My Sanctuary (and the Blackout Curtains are a Dream!)
Let's talk about the rooms. Right, so I'm a sucker for a good room. And honestly, their rooms? Freaking awesome! It had Air conditioning, of course (essential!). Blackout curtains. Oh. My. God. They were a game-changer. Seriously, no more early morning sunbeams ruining your sleep. Bathrobes, slippers & all of the extra amenities. Little things, maybe, but they make such a difference. Oh yeah, and Wi-Fi [free] in the room, obviously. Complimentary tea, coffee. And the list just goes on and on.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking - Food! Glorious Food! (and That Poolside Bar…)
Here’s the thing. I’m a foodie. I live to eat. And the Dining, drinking, and snacking options were… extensive. Let’s start with the Restaurants. Honestly, they had everything. Asian cuisine in restaurant that knocked my socks off? Check. Western cuisine in restaurant when I needed a comfort bite? Yup! Breakfast [buffet]? Yes, a glorious one! I may or may not have gone back for seconds (okay, thirds). The Breakfast [buffet] had everything you could possibly want. The Coffee/tea in restaurant was also good. I would have been content to spend all day in the hotel without ever getting bored. The staff were quick & always helpful at serving you the food.
And the Poolside bar? That was pure bliss. I mean, imagine this: sitting by the Swimming pool [outdoor] (which, by the way, has a Pool with view), sipping a cocktail, and watching the sunset. Pure. Relaxation. I may or may not have spent an entire afternoon there. Don't judge me. Also, shout-out to the Snack bar for that late-night craving.
Services and Conveniences - The Little Things That Make a Big Difference (and the Concierge is a lifesaver!)
This is where Hotel Pavilion really shines. The Services and conveniences are top-notch. The Concierge was amazing. Needed a cab? He conjured one. Wanted to explore the local markets? He gave me the inside scoop. The Daily housekeeping was flawless, making sure everything was clean & fresh every day. They've got Dry cleaning, Ironing service, Laundry service, all the basics covered. There’s a Cash withdrawal machine if you need it. And the Facilities for disabled guests showed they're thinking of everyone. It's all those convenient details.
Things to Do & Ways to Relax - Spa Day, Anyone? (Yes, Please!)
Okay, so the ways to relax! The Spa is a must-do. I got a Massage and, oh my god, it was pure heaven. They had a Sauna, a Steamroom — the works. It was a proper escape. My shoulders were screaming at me, and after an hour, I was a new person. Fitness center? Yup! They've got it.
For the Kids - Family Fun!
Though I didn't have any kids with me, I noticed they had Family/child friendly options. From what I could see, this hotel caters to families.
Getting Around - Simple & Stress-Free
Car park [free of charge]: HUGE plus! No ridiculous parking fees! They also offer Airport transfer and Taxi service which made getting to and from the hotel a breeze.
Quirky Observations & Honest Imperfections (Because Real Life Isn't Always Perfect)
I’m the kind of person that hates when hotels try to be too perfect. Here, though, were a few little things. The signage could be clearer in a few places. The elevator, while fantastic, could get a bit busy at peak times (though I'm being fussy). Oh, and the room service menu…it could use a few more vegetarian options (I’m looking at you, Hotel Pavilion!). But honestly, these are tiny quibbles.
The Verdict: Why You NEED to Stay at Hotel Pavilion
Look, I’ve stayed in a lot of hotels. Budget hotels. Luxury hotels. This hotel? It's more than just a place to sleep. It's an experience. The clean rooms, the amazing food, the fantastic staff. It's a place where you can genuinely relax, recharge, and feel taken care of.

Indore: A Hot Mess of Memories (Hotel Pavilion Edition) - My Diary of Disasters & Delights
Alright, buckle up buttercups, because this isn't your sanitized, perfectly-planned travel brochure. This is real. This is me, battling heat, hunger, and the occasional existential crisis, all while trying to navigate Indore. And it all starts, predictably, at the Hotel Pavilion.
Day 1: Arrival & That Damn AC
- 10:00 AM: Landed in Indore. The flight felt longer than my last relationship. Grabbed a rickshaw to the Pavilion – the rickshaw driver, bless his soul, clearly thought his driving license was a mere suggestion. Weaving through the chaos was an experience in itself.
- 11:00 AM: Check-in. The lobby… meh. Functional. The lady at the front desk had the energy of a damp sponge. Already a bad sign.
- 11:30 AM: Room discovered. Decent size, but that AC? A cruel joke. It sounded like a dying walrus and produced about as much cold air. "Maintenance" came, fiddled, mumbled something about freon (that word alone just conjures images of environmental doom), and left. Still a sauna. My mood? Let's just say I was starting to channel my inner Grumpy Cat.
- 12:30 PM: Lunch at the hotel restaurant. Ordered the "Dal Makhani." It arrived looking like a murky swamp, but tasted… surprisingly good? Conflicting emotions. I'm sure the questionable hygiene of the kitchen was just part of its charm.
- 2:00 PM: Attempted a nap. Failed. The AC was still at war with me. Also, the incessant honking outside provided a constant soundtrack. Indore's noise level could probably shatter glass.
- 4:00 PM: Gave up on sleep and decided to explore. Big mistake. The street outside the hotel radiated heat, the air was thick with the smell of spices and something vaguely… industrial. My initial optimism wilted faster than a lettuce in the desert.
- 5:00 PM: Found a chai stall. Salvation! The chai was divine. Sweet, spicy, and a tiny beacon of hope amidst the chaos. The vendor, a wizened old man with eyes full of stories, watched me gulp it down and chuckled. Suddenly, the world didn't seem so bad. Maybe Indore and I could be friends after all.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner at the hotel. Samosas. They were greasy, golden, and absolutely hit the spot. My stomach was now my best friend.
- 8:00 PM: Gave up fighting the AC and just embraced the heat. Watched a Bollywood movie on TV. The plot, the acting… all delightfully bonkers. Fell asleep eventually.
Day 2: Chappan Dukaan & the Quest for AC Nirvana
- 8:00 AM: Woke up sweaty. AC still broken. Called reception again. More mumbled promises. I swear I'm starting to feel like I'm trapped in a Kafka novel.
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast. Standard hotel fare. Nothing to write home about, except maybe to complain about the eggs.
- 10:00 AM: Headed to Chappan Dukaan – the famous food street. OMG. The smell. The noise. The sheer volume of deliciousness. I felt like Charlie in the Chocolate Factory, overwhelmed by the possibilities.
- Highlights: Jalebis. Perfect. Absolutely perfect. And the garadu? Spicy, tangy, and fried to crispy perfection. My arteries will probably hate me later, but right now, I'm in culinary heaven. The pav bhaji was also, truly, phenomenal.
- The Lowlight: The crowds. Shoulder to shoulder, bumping and jostling. I'm usually a fan of crowds, but the heat amplified the chaos. I got a bit claustrophobic at one point and had to escape for a bit to be alone.
- 1:00 PM: Back to the hotel. To confront the AC one last time. I spoke with the manager this time, who seemed genuinely concerned. He promised a new room. Relief!
- 2:00 PM: New room acquired. HALLELUJAH! Actually, it worked. Cold air! I wanted to weep with joy.
- 2:30 PM: Took a blissful, luxurious nap.
- 4:00 PM: Explored Sarafa Bazaar (the night market) which was recommended to me. The energy was infectious. Beautiful jewelry, vibrant fabrics, and the constant banter of vendors.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner at a local restaurant. (Not the hotel this time. Gotta escape the perceived threat to my digestive system.) Tried a thali. A veritable feast for the senses. So many curries! So much rice! My tastebuds are now doing the tango.
- 9:00 PM: Back at the Pavilion, happily cooling in my AC-blessed room. Reflecting on the day. Indore is chaotic, challenging, and sometimes downright exhausting. But also? It's vibrant, delicious, and utterly unforgettable. Not everyone is perfect, but you get one. One try.
Day 3: Temples & the Unexpected
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast, finally able to eat without a cloud of despair hanging over me.
- 10:00 AM: Visited Khajrana Ganesh Temple. The atmosphere was electric, filled with devotion. The architecture was awe-inspiring. Felt a strange wave of peace.
- 12:00 PM: Tried to visit Rajwada Palace, but it was closed! (Why? Who knows! I suppose a little bit of chaos is just part of the deal here.)
- 1:00 PM: Was feeling a little lost, so I wandered into a tiny little tea shop. It looked like a hole-in-the-wall, but the tea was amazing – spiced with cardamom and ginger. It was so comforting.
- 2:00 PM: Discovered a park just around the corner from the hotel which gave me such a good and needed break from the activity, and heat of the days.
- 3:00 PM: Went back to Chappan Dukaan. I can't help myself. Another round of jalebis. This time, even better.
- 5:00 PM: Started packing up my stuff as I was leaving the next day.
- 7:00 PM: One last dinner at the hotel. Sigh. The Dal Makhani was still good.
- 8:00 PM: Final thoughts. Indore, you're a rollercoaster. But you're my rollercoaster. And I'm already thinking about when I can come back.
Day 4:
- 8:00 AM: Checked out. The lady at reception actually smiled! Progress!
- 9:00 AM: Departure. Looked back as the cab drove me away. Goodbye, Indore. Goodbye, Hotel Pavilion. You've given me plenty of stories to tell.
- 10:00 AM: The flight was great, but I know I'll be missing Indore and all of it's greatness.
- 11:00 AM: Landed back at home, and the first thing that I had to do was call the hotel's main line and complain. Honestly, I had to. I couldn't leave that situation alone, but I still am grateful for this journey.
Final Thoughts:
Indore isn't perfect. It's loud, sometimes smelly, and the air conditioning situation at the Hotel Pavilion could be a war crime. But it's also full of life, amazing food, and moments of unexpected beauty. It's a place that stays with you, a place that challenges you, and a place that, ultimately, you fall a little bit in love with. I already miss it. And yes, I'm definitely filing a formal complaint about that AC.

Hotel Pavilion: You Think You Know Luxury... You Don't. (Probably)
Okay, Okay, Spill the Beans. What's the REAL Deal with Hotel Pavilion? Everyone's Raving... Is it Hype?
Alright, buckle up, buttercup. "Hotel Pavilion" in Indore? Let me tell you, I went in expecting… well, *another* hotel. You know? Nice lobby, polite staff, maybe a slightly-too-firm bed (my usual nemesis). I was prepared to be *underwhelmed*.
Yeah, about that... Let me tell you, the lobby *is* gorgeous. Like, straight-up magazine cover gorgeous. But it's the stuff that *happens* after the lobby that really gets you. The service? Insane. I accidentally spilled coffee on my crisp white shirt (classic me), and before I even blinked, someone was there with a stain remover, a smile, and a reassuring "Don't you worry, sir/madam!" (It was "sir" for me, sadly. The shirt lived, by the way.)
So, hype? Maybe a little. But it's *earned* hype. It's the kind of place where you feel… seen. They've thought of everything. Seriously. Everything. From the perfectly chilled champagne flutes (yes, I tried one, don't judge) to the tiny little chocolates left on your pillow at turndown service. They’ve covered the bases and then some.
The Rooms! (Because, let's be real, that's important). What's the Vibe? Are We Talking Gold-Plated Faucets?
Okay, the rooms. This is where things get interesting. Gold-plated faucets? Nope. Thank God. We're talking *tasteful* luxury. Think sleek lines, plush fabrics, and a view that'll make you actually want to *stay* in your room instead of rushing out.
We're talking *comfort*. I'm not a huge fan of the "too-much-luxury" kind of rooms. It's almost… intimidating. Like you're afraid to breathe in case you mess something up. The Pavilion gets it just right. It's the kind of place where you can sprawl on the bed with a book, order room service in your PJs, and actually *relax*. The bed? Heavenly. Seriously. I almost contemplated moving in permanently.
Also, the bathroom. Oh, the bathroom. It was a spa experience. Seriously. Big walk-in shower, amazing toiletries, fluffy towels you could just sink into. I honestly contemplated taking *everything* home with me. (Don't worry, I resisted. Mostly.)
Let's Talk Food. Because Food is Life. What's the Dining Scene Like? Any Must-Try Dishes?
Alright, food. This is where I fully and completely lost it. The Pavilion… they get food. They *understand* food. There are multiple restaurants, each with its own distinct flavour. And the quality? Off the charts. I was there for like, three days and gained five pounds (a sacrifice I’m willing to make again, let me tell you.)
First, the buffet breakfast (I'm a massive, unapologetic buffet breakfast person). It's not your average hotel buffet. Think perfectly fluffy omelets, fresh fruit, a whole section dedicated to Indian breakfast staples (the poha was *divine* – seriously, I had three servings), and coffee that actually tastes like coffee, not burnt water. They *catered* to my ridiculous morning rituals like it was nothing. I swear, they knew my coffee preference before I even sat down.
The fine-dining restaurant? The one with all the fancy-pantsy dishes? I, a decidedly *not* fancy-pants person, found it amazing. The presentation! The flavours! I honestly don't remember what I ate – I was in a blissful food coma the entire time. But yeah, the food is great. Try everything, seriously, every single thing.
Okay, What About the Pool? Because, Vacation.
The pool! Okay, so the pool is… it’s… well, I didn't spend *tons* of time there. I'm more of a "sit in the air conditioning and eat more food" type person. But, from what I saw, it looked pretty amazing. Big, with those perfect blue tiles. Lovely. I did a quick dip. It was… refreshing. But I was quickly drawn back in by the allure of the room service menu.
I did, however, see other people lounging around, looking relaxed and happy and sipping drinks with tiny umbrellas. So, yeah, the pool is probably a good thing. It's probably beautiful. Honestly, though? The fact that they have one just adds to the whole "we've thought of everything" vibe.
Service, Service, Service. How’s the Staff? Are They Hovering or Helpful?
Service. This is where Hotel Pavilion really shines. Forget hovering. These folks are *efficient*. They're attentive, but not intrusive. They anticipate your needs before you even know you have them. It's… unnerving, initially. But then you get used to it. And then you start *relying* on it.
I had a minor emergency (lost my cufflinks—again!). The concierge was on it immediately. Within minutes, they were investigating, calling around, consulting every possible resource to find them (they did!). Honestly, the level of service is something else. It's like having your own personal guardian angels of hospitality.
The staff? Friendly, professional, and genuinely happy to help. It's the kind of service that makes you feel like you're the only guest in the hotel, even though, of course, you’re not. They remember your name, your preferences… it's uncanny. Seriously, they're basically wizards.
Any Downsides? Because Nothing's Perfect, Right?
Okay, downsides. This is where I have to scrape the barrel. The truth? It's really, really hard to find faults. Maybe… and I’m grasping at straws here… the wifi was *slightly* slower in my room one evening? But, realistically, I might have just been impatient.
Also, (and this is a *very* minor thing), the whole place is *so* nice, you almost feel obligated to be perfect yourself. You're not sure if your normal, slightly messy self fits the luxury bill but I did not fit, but hey, it’s something to strive for. That’s it. That's all I could find! Seriously, I’m struggling.
Maybe… it's *too* comfortable? Because the temptation to never leave is extremely strong. Otherwise, yeah, it’s pretty darn close to faultless. Honestly? Book it. You won’t regret it.
Overall, Should I Stay? Is it Worth the Splurge or Should I Save for the Future?
