juSTa Hyderabad

a sudden decision to visit Hyderabad, also its my first. don't know much about the Hotels and the conveyance available. after reviewing Expedia, found some Hotel name and called 2-3 of them. I got satisfied with the customer friendly attitude of the Hotel staffs of Justa - the residence and booked for three nights. actually never expected this much satisfaction from the whole 4 days we spent there. the Hotel is beside Hussain sagar lake and near to secunderabad railway station. its centrally located to the city. the breakfast included are also awesome. hotels staffs are helpful and cooperative, particularly the Manager, Mr Abhilash S. its ended up to a great stay. want to go again with friends and family.

It was excellent. Due to location, I saved a lot of time and also the lake view was great during dinner times. It was very clean but most furniture including TV was very old (tube TV) but all functional. Restaurant was great. Price is still excellent for the location and facilities provided.

Our experience has been very good generally speaking. Abhilash their manager is like a perfect host. A real action man with quick resolution to any issues. Jaggannath his deputy is just as good. The location overlooking Hussain Sagar is excellent, with a fabulous view from the terrace. We had booked two rooms for 4 days, and both were very well kept. The only negative was the poor drainage in the bathrooms. After showers it took a long time for the water to drain out causing a damp smell for some time. The exhaust fans were not very effective either. The breakfast included in the package is too good with a great variety.

The Hotel Stay was good, the only hassle was that the Hotel Staff blamed us for the missing Hangers and wanted to charge 600 for it, which was absurd... Overall the stay was quite good, a quite location, good view and just perfect for the area except for the continuous water leakage right outside the window from the roof probably. Couldn't taste the complimentary Breakfast which was included in the room tariff as I was too busy but I'm sure it would have been great too.

First time in hyderbad, was initially skeptical of the hotel....but the minute I landed 4 hours before prescribed check in time to check out...everything was just great. Service, room, cleanlines....5 on 5

I visit and stay in many different Indian hotels quite often so this is a very honest opinion. Whilst located in a picturesque postion next to the lake it is a fair way north of the old city centre which cost Rs80 each way to reach in an auto rickshaw (February 2013 rates). The hotel itself is looking very tired inside the rooms. They are clean and tidy but at best could not be marked higher than the bottom end of 3 star. If the hotel updated it's fixtures and decoration then it would pull itself to the top of 3 star. For local taxis and auto rickshaw drivers you should mention it is in " Rani Gunj" close to the junction of MG Road as they may find it difficult to locate until they drive past it then have to drive another Km before making a U-turn.Choice of breakfast items is very limited (based on economics I guess) and comes down to eggs/toast/croissants/fruit for westerners or a small range of Indian spicy items like Idli or Parantha bread. If you are not expecting something at the high end of 3 star but want a comfortable, clean and peacefully located hotel in Hyderabad then the Justa represents reasonable value.It's companion hotel Minerva Grand is a couple of kilometres away and would score as a top end 3 star if you are looking at other options.. It is more centrally located too for shoppping etc. Although I rate the hotel as 3 out of 5 for my stay, it would be 4 out of 5 if I marked it only on value-for-money considering the rate I paid for the room.

Rooms were very clean - the linen too was very clean. Hotel was located centrally making travel to various places easier.

One thing I would definitely recommend is the restaurant. The buffet was awesome with one of the most widely spread cuisine I have ever seen with the most delicious taste ! Rooms were good, but could still improve !

Great Stay!

The hotel management is very non-cooperative. They leveled any kind of charges they thought fit, charged for stuff non-consumed. And for a trivial reason- they had already made they bill. Please, improvement of attitude towards guests is necessary.
