I spent about 3 weeks here for a vacation and a wedding. If you’re looking for comfy accommodations in North Bengaluru, White Castle is a wonderful choice. This room and suite are clean, the AC works well, and the service is great. I could get my space cleaned every day if I wanted to, and their laundry service was fast (about a 24 hour turnaround on weekdays). ***y thanks to Suresh and ***ju for keeping the place clean and mosquito-free, which I’m sure is difficult in this city. The room service menu is also quite expansive, so if you’re dealing with belly issues, they have you covered. I felt safe as a solo wo*** as well. I’m not sure what this place was like pre-COVID, but right now, the hotel doesn't seem to have ***y people staying in it. Things feel very calm. The guests that I do see tend to be Indians from other parts of the country on business trips. It also seems that they stopped allowing cooking or microwaving in the kitchenettes after COVID. A few notes for Americans: - This is a great hotel, but it’s still in India and infrastructure problems still exist. The WiFi can be spotty, the power goes out a few times a day, and tap water is not to be trusted. They give you free bottled water though. - I’m Chinese American, so I got a lot of curious stares from the other guests because of how I look and speak. If you’re a nonwhite American, be prepared for some looks of confusion anywhere you go in Bangalore. - The doorbell, the streets, the cars, and anything else that can make noise will do it about ten times louder than what we’re accustomed to. Get used to it.
