My experience with Sunflower Guest House management - from the very start of my dealings with them - "their spontaneous response to all my e-mail bookings" in searching for accommodation. Also their patience on the number of times I have made changes to my bookings. All my e-mails are acknowledge with very kind responses and positive assurance. The rates are... More

The location is perfect, just 1 min walk from Park street in a quiet lane. The view from the roof top is really great! The rooms are basic, but clean and comfortable. Everything was working, nothing was broken, etc. The staff is friendly and helpful. It has many nice plants on the roof. More

To be honest, I was a bit disappointed with the Sunflower Guest House. The management was my biggest issue. They seemed very disorganized. However, what was worst was that they initially refused to let my husband and I share a room. The reason why: he's Indian and I'm a foreigner. After much shouting at them, they changed their mind and... More

I think the location is perfect. The bathrooms are clean. But bring your own sheets and towels. The ones in the guest house is dirty. The kitchen does not open till 8 am so do not bother waking the sleepy attendant for coffee at 7 am. On the whole if you just want a bed and clean bathroom then this... More

I decide to stay at this hotel because of recommendation from LP. I phone them from outside India to make a reservation but the staff told me to call again next morning. I called them again next morning and the answer is "not sure, not garuntee" and ask to call again in the evening. Finally I got a reservation and... More

I was torn between three stars and four. Good location (close to Sudder Street, but also far enough to feel a little less touristy), very clean rooms, plenty of hot water, decent price, decent blankets/linens. As others have said, the staff seems entirely indifferent and speaks very little English, so don't go there expecting them to suggest itineraries or set... More
