Hotel alaya is a small hotel in a very central location in dehradun close to bhel chowk. The staff here are very welcoming, courteous and polite. Rooms / washrooms were clean. It almost feels like a brand new property. A mini refrigerator, tea kettle, tv etc are available as amenities. The rooms have balconies with a sit out that you can enjoy in good weather. Each room has individual split ac units. The beds are king size, very comfortable and the linen is clean. Service is a little slow. They have a single number to dial for all your needs whether it be housekeeping, room service, laundry, concierge or anything else you need. Parking is available in the basement as well as kerbside. Accessibility for people with special needs is a q mark because you either go through the basement for the elevator or you need to climb about 10 steps to get to the ground floor. The reception is on the first floor. Overall, a good experience at the alaya. Good location and value for money.
