JW Marriott Hotel Kolkata
Holiday Inn Express Kolkata Airport by IHG
It was a good option for a transit stay. The hotel is pretty close to the airport making is very convenient to reach. The room and toilets was also neat and clean. Perfectly suitable for a nights stay as transit. Didn’t not get a chance to try any meal.
