Udaivilas is a bit worn, but service and architecture are top notch.
Cons of Leela Palace
Dock facilities, dock location, and waiting times are abysmal.
Rooms are small and dark.
Architecture is horrible. Looks like a Holiday Inn with Onion Domes.
Any request for service is met with blank stares.
Trying to get ahold of the spa on phone was comical: button for spa connected us to a different department. Repeated tries were hung up on. Finally dialed the front desk button and spa picked up!
I'll steer clear of any other Leela properties in future based on this stay.
