Lucknow
is a bustling city and one of the most popular destinations In India for its
food. The city offers unique historical monuments, culture and great
food to satisfy all palates! The streets are colorful, captivating and at
times, completely overwhelming.
Standing tall and serene amidst all the chaos
is the Hyatt Regency Lucknow. This reliable hotel provides a calm retreat and
is a great choice for families looking for some home comforts.
ACCOMMODATION
Just
a quick turn in the corporate hub of Vibhuti Khand, transports you into a
lush paradise. We (Grandma, Dad & Mom) arrive late afternoon and I am super
happy to enter the hotel lobby, which is very beautiful.

| Love the welcome !! |
After check-in we are
brought to our room. Excuse me, did I say room? I mean a mini apartment.
Our home for the next four days comprises of a suite with a master bedroom
and another bedroom with a bathroom which are interconnected, pretty much
breath-taking, spotless clean and extremely comfortable.
When
I walk in, the first thing I see is a bunch of welcome goodies that puts me in
a good mood. Looking in a little further I notice a giant living room, with a
bigger flat screen LCD television, two couches with plenty of comfy pillows, a
guest Powder Room that is connected to the living room and this is great for
those of you who have friends over and do not wish to share your bathroom and a
study that offers more than we need.
Adjacent to which is the master bedroom
that sits behind two sliding doors. Needless to say, there are flat-screen TV in
the bedrooms so there is no reason to leave the bed unless you really have to.
The bathroom design is well-appointed and bright and oh so classy! There is a
huge bathtub and a shower with a glass door. Something worth mentioning is that
there is a giant closet (read walk in) in the suite so I can really stack up
all of my things because I own so many. (Just kidding!). There is something
about the accommodation I realize from the second I had enter the door. The
fragrance... Everything smells so incredibly fresh and good. The
towels, the bed sheets, the pillows, the shower gel, it is addictive; It is
extraordinary!
REJUVINATE
The
Hotel makes fitness extremely rewarding for its guests with its state of the
art fitness centre and a refreshing view of the swimming pool. Three massage
rooms manned by professional trainers…it’s all there and the Siddh is the only
Spa in Lucknow in a 5 Star hotel.
The Spa uses ingredients which revitalise the
face and body and Work with your skin to deliver outstanding results. I try a
Siddh-Spa special massage and the soft and gentle strokes put me into a passive
snooze, a reason why this massage is mainly useful for those who find it tough
to shut eye ( though of course I have no such problem, I can sleep just about
anywhere).
KHAANA PEENA
The
restaurants and bar congregate at first floor and provide an unmatched meal
experience.
It houses ‘LukJin’ a sumptuous Chinese Thai
cuisine restaurant where the exotic cuisine compliments the exotic ambience. For
breakfast my popular haunt is ‘Rocca’, which is conceptualized as
an open and airy place with a lot of natural lighting. The clean lines and the
minimalism reflect the simplicity of its structure and form. It sure is a balmy
strip of foodie fun and the Buffet with its many counters add a measure of
gustatory refinement.
There couldn’t have been a more peaceful retreat than ‘UP’s’
Bar offering a host of exciting drinks to choose from….my favourite
being the ‘Bareily Ka Jhumka’ ….and I have two of those, as not only do I
like the taste, but also want the pair ( they give one jhumka with a drink)! And yes there is the ‘Market’ to grab and go if you are
in a hurry…. (As for me I am on a holiday…so don’t use this one)
REGENCY
CLUB
The
Regency is exclusively designed for the comfort of guests staying in the Regency
Club Rooms & Suites. Being a suite guest I am entitled to access this area,
which proves as the ideal setting for our evening tea. A Regency club guest
also gets privileges like exclusive access to the Club Lounge, where one can
enjoy a complimentary breakfast each morning, cocktails in the evening, and hot
beverage service throughout the day.
SO LONG FAREWELL, I HATE TO SAY GOODBYE
There
is so much more I could say about the Hyatt Regency Lucknow but most
important four days were not enough!! It was overwhelming in a positive
way. A first class hotel for those who just want to relax in beautiful designed
place and explore Lucknow the way it is meant to be….( food and chickan).
