A dishwasher, an oven and microwave are also available, as well as a kettle. At the guest house, the units are equipped with bed linen and towels.

Lakeside Suites is a real gem in Kolkata. It's the southern part of the city, which is less busy but well connected by bus, taxi or rickshaw to other parts of Kolkata. There are many shops, tea stalls and eateries nearby, and even phone shops to get a local sim. The rooms are very clean and spacious - both my wife and I had space to do yoga in the room- and there is a shared living room and kitchen per floor. There is freshly made Indian-style breakfast is served every day. The owner Manoj, his son and the staff were all very welcoming and friendly, and also very helpful in helping us navigate things like doing laundry, using train apps and finding things. I have to stress, though, that this place is super clean and there is even filtered drinking water available for all the suites. We had to stay an extra day, and they quickly accommodated us as well. All in all, a really nice experience that in all honesty we were sad to leave behind.

Reception and support staff really made it like home. It’s situated at a peaceful location with lots of great restaurants & cafes to explore. Airport transfer by Uber took me 35 mins on a Sunday traffic for 20 odd kilometers. I would definitely book this place when I visit Kolkata next time.

The great hospitality provided by the owner. (I got to have a slice of cake on her birthday which was coinciding on one of my stay dates.) They are absolutely graceful and treat the guests as their friends.

    Nice, family run, bed and breakfast on a quiet street in Kolkata. There was a guard who brought us in even though we arrived very early and we were able to speak to one of the owners on the phone. The room was very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was served by the family in the dining area.

    The property was located in a beautiful and quiet place, and was close to most of the tourist places in Kolkata. The room was clean and the bathroom was spacious. The property had all the required facilities. The walls in the home had dictionary pages as a wallpaper, which was really cool and gave the place some personality. Munna was an excellent host and made some great egg breakfast. We had a great time and this was one of the best home stays I have been in. Would definitely recommend it to everyone.

    The room was basic, but clean, and very quiet, which we appreciated in Kolkata. Guesthouse is located close to the airport, which was also convenient. The subway station is about 2km from the guesthouse, so it is quite well connected to the city center. Overall it was better then we excpected, especially the staff was very nice, kind, and helpful.

    Big comfy and clean room in a great location in Kolkata. The host was very sweet, always with a big smile, and also arranged laundry for us. It's in a quiet and safe neighborhood, easy to access anywhere in the city from there (taxis nearby and metro in 10 minutes). Good options for restaurants, cafes, and shopping within walking distance. We can highly recommend it!

    Everything was great about this property in the centre of Kolkata - good Wifi, hot shower, delicious breakfast and charming hosts. Highly recommend who want a quiet stay away from the hustle and bustle. This building is set back about 100m from the roads and therefore is very quiet
