Hotel Driftwood - Port Blair

Amazing ambience... Super cool place... Humble staff... Homely feeling... Food is great too... Family friendly... There is no place like this in Port Blair you may find... Must visit... Highly recommended

We stayed at the Hotel Driftwood for one night. Had a wonderful experience. The rooms were cozy, service was prompt. The Staff here are warm, welcoming and approachable. Would like to make a special mention of Mr. Abhijeet. He went out of his way and voluntarily offered to help us with some issue not related to the hotel and he did it promptly. It's rare to find such gems. All in all, we had a beautiful experience at this hotel. It was like a home away from home. Highly recommended if anyone is looking for the best stay in Port Blair.

OMG! Definitely not a good experience with this property, booked them for 2 nights, 6 rooms for my family checkin. Here are positives and negatives from my personal experience; Positives: (very few) Staff like Prasenjit and other one on night duty are open to feedback and would like to serve guests in their own capability. View from Level 4 is nice. Negatives: (read the list) We reached at 1pm, rooms were not ready. Checkin time is 11:30am. We went to have lunch in their restaurant, waited for 15 minutes, no one came to take order, got to know they were under staffed, we realised and went to Annapurna by cab. When we checked in again after coming back from Neil Island, staff apologised for last experience and assured they would serve us better this time. Again went for Dinner at the restaurant at 8pm, no table was available. Staff assured us to wait in the rooms, they would arrange and call us. At 09:20 pm they told us to visit some other place as they cant serve us. (Port Blair, every place gets close by 09:30pm and they kept us waiting from 08 till 09:20 and we were travelling with seniors and kids - imagine) Service levels are horrible. Breakfast is at floor 4 and kitchen at floor 1, lift works so slow and your breakfast experience can never be good. Every other guest was either waiting for food or complaining. Rooms are just basic, furniture is not polished, washrooms are small, showers leak. Not a good experience by any standards. Please look for other options in Port Blair.

Room was ok but bathrooms condition was pathetic. Nothing was working properly. Staff was cordial but facilities not great. Breakfast was too bad. Restaurant services too slow.

the hotel was good and tyw staff are very kind but there is a saturday night dj party which wqs nkt mentioned anywhre and ita loud and u can hear the noise even if u are in your room. food was good but theybare short staffed so it will take 30mins-1 hr for food and in the evening its quite busy in the restaurant. tye rooms are average size. one thing to mention that they will pack your bf if u leave in the early morning which i like. overall i will give 3 star.

Stay was good. Food is good but take very high time to deliver minimum 45-50 minutes. Room is and washrooms are spacious but need renovation. Seepage type smell. You can see lizard there in rooms. Service is good. Location is also good. 4th floor restaurant area is also very good.
