Hotel Landmark

Avoid booking this Hotel LANDMAK in Port Blair directly or through any other site. This Landmark hotel is not customer-friendly and seems focused only on money rather than service. I booked three months in advance by phone for a 3-day stay in March 2026. After negotiation, they agreed on a rate of Rs.3600 per day, all taxes included, with complimentary breakfast. They promised a double cot and a single cot with mattress for 3 guests, but only gave a double cot and a mattress on the floor instead of a single cot, which felt like cheating. On check-in, they agreed to provide complimentary breakfast, but at checkout they demanded payment after a long argument, confirming my suspicion. The breakfast was very limited, just idlies, sambar, chutney, and egg omelette, with no variety. One hour before check-in on the third day, staff called to say the tariff had increased to Rs.4200 from Rs.3600. I was shocked and reminded them of the advance booking, but they said take it or find another hotel. Since I had no time or knowledge of alternatives, I paid the extra amount. The management clearly prioritizes money over good customer treatment. During my stay, the TV didn’t work, breakfast was disappointing, and I faced frequent power cuts and a non-working AC. In my opinion, do not book this hotel; the management is money-oriented.

방은 평범하지만 위치가 아주 좋습니다. 관광지와 부두까지 걸어서 갈 수 있어요. 직원들이 매우 친절해서 인상 깊었습니다. 또한 옥상에는 전망이 좋은 식당도 있습니다.

If you travel alone, I recommend avoiding this hotel. Don't book through online sites or by calling their front desk directly. I reserved a one-night stay for late December via Agoda three months ahead and paid ₹2,112 in full. A month later, the hotel canceled my Agoda booking and asked me to request a refund. I've used Agoda for six years without issues. When I contacted the front desk, they said the price I paid was "too low" for December and asked me to pay directly via UPI to keep the booking. I agreed and rebooked for ₹3,000, paying ₹500 upfront, which I found acceptable. But 30 minutes before check-in, while traveling from Port Blair jetty, the hotel called again, saying the AC in my room was broken and they were fully booked, so they had no room for me. They moved me to another hotel far from tourist spots in a residential area. I had no choice but to accept. Upon arrival, I waited two hours because the room wasn't ready. Traveling from there to the airport and attractions was tough. I spent the night and left Port Blair the next morning. In 25 years of traveling India, I've never met such a greedy and unreliable hotel. It seems they gave my room to a bigger group last minute and pushed me out because I booked only one room for one night. My strong advice: avoid this hotel. It's not dependable.

Good Hotel, Good Location, Clean rooms

Excellent, the staff are very polite, very fast to assist, they have facility to pay through QR code system so the charge of the stay was paid through Google pay.
