Hotel Review: Hotel Sandstone, Dehradun
Stay Duration: 5th to 6th July
Location: Near Dehradun ISBT
I recently stayed at Hotel Sandstone for one night. The service and food were quite good – staff was courteous, and the meals were satisfying. The location is also convenient if you're traveling via ISBT.
However, there was a major issue regarding the "City View Room" listed on MakeMyTrip. I specifically booked this room category expecting a proper view, but on arrival, the reception staff themselves confirmed that there is no actual city view. In fact, the room window opens directly toward the balconies of another building, so the curtains have to remain shut for privacy.
This was misleading, and I strongly feel that MakeMyTrip should remove the “City View” label for this hotel, as it does not match the reality at all.
Overall:
Service: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Food: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Room/View: ⭐⭐ (because of the misleading city view claim)
Cleanliness: ⭐⭐⭐
Location: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Recommendation: Suitable for a short stay if you're not particular about the view. But double-check room details before booking.
