Loved staying at Bar convent. It was my curiosity of this place that led me to book the room here. And being a catholic myself, I was fascinated reading about the history of the place. I loved the ambience, the room was no less than some of the five star properties I have experienced in India, the people were really nice and friendly. Most importantly after I returned and posted a picture, I came to know that one of my paternal aunts belonged to to the same congregation and have visited and stayed at Bar convent. She is in India now. So that added to my liking to the place. I would recommend you 100 percent!

Finally, a typical hotel! The room was very light, spacious, immaculately clean and quiet. There was not only a kettle in the room, but a whole range of teas, snacks and hot chocolate. The view from the window was lovely and the bathroom with bath was exceptional! Breakfast is served in picnic baskets and can be pre-ordered, again typical products and finally not the usual fake hotel breakfast. There is always a corner with hot drinks and snacks. In short, impossible not to feel good!

Nice guesthouse with friendly host and decent facilities. Room was large and comfortable with lots of amenities. Location was fine and a quiet road. Near enough the city centre but far enough for a healthy walk. Would stay again. Thank you.
