5 | Vishal K Our stay at International Hotel , Mauritius was a memorable one. From check in to till the time we left the hotel , it was an amazing experience. Everyone in the hotel was there to make us comfortable. The food was just awesome. Rooms were neat , clean and very cozy. We enjoyed the water sports at the hotel. SPA centre is the USP of the hotel. We had a gala time throughout our stay. I highly recommend this hotel to others and especially to people who are planning their honeymoon. I had discussions with other couples whom I met on the trip and I found that intercontinental hotel offers a lot that probably no other hotel offers! |
