Lomi Lomi would be a wise choice to make if you want to sip one of their finest mocktails from the menu. It contains fresh lime juice, honey, ginger & orange juice whose mixture leads to an amazing aftertaste.

Overall Experience and Rating

The first thing which caught our attention is their capacious and colorful lobby. While having a property walk through session, we were quite impressed with three of their gems located in the lobby area viz. wxyz bar, Nook and Re:Fuel. “Nook” is a must go place if you really want to enjoy some delicious food. Aloft has a separate breakfast, lunch and dinner menu for their guests and shows no hesitation in offering a wonderful hospitality during the stay. They have an amazing staff to take good care of you, be it in terms of food, room service or any kind of advisory. Going forward, their board rooms and banquet hall play a significant role in conducting corporate meetups or hosting a wedding ceremony. Covering the fitness part, their gym contains a list of the well chosen equipment with a massaging chair kept right outside. We had a pleasant stay for 1 night 2 days where we enjoyed most of their activities like foosball, swimming,etc. in our leisure time.

IMG_20161210_150217806_HDR.jpg

      Ever wondered about melted cheese saving your day ! A must try appetizer for all the cheese lovers.This gives an immense pleasure to your taste buds from the very first bite.The melted cheese in the croquettes is really exceptional and never to be missed.This dish was a perfect one for the evening right from its taste to the presentation.


  • Beer Mojito

    IMG_20161210_144041104_HDR.jpg

 A refreshing beverage and not only for beer lovers. Peppermint leaves have a more intense flavour than other mint varieties and also have some bitter notes. This goes well together with the different malty and bitter flavours of many German beer varieties. If you prefer a non-alcoholic Mojito, look out for a alcohol reduced or non-alcoholic beer. This beer cocktail caught our attention and we were really amused looking at the presentation.


Overall Experience and Rating

It was a sweet escape where we could cover almost each and every food item on their fixed menu(includes the recommended food items and drinks). Non vegetarian food plays a crucial role in their food menu and a lot of people with wanderlust love trying such dishes.Vegetarian food on the other hand gives a tough fight when it comes to taste. As the table was occupied by 6 different bloggers, sipping their different sought of flavored cocktails(Coconut Margarita,Captain Espresso,Beer Mojito) one at a time while enjoying the sunset and its scenic beauty definitely made our day. Captain Espresso is one of their best cocktail adding a perfect pinch of coffee to your taste buds.This Blogger Engagement activity was well organized by their management team and their Head Chef Mr.Amit and his team made no compromise while preparing such delicious food items.Everything was filled with perfection.A pleasant evening with a perfect sunset enjoying their scrumptious food items and drinks alongside.
