Visited on 16th Feb 2019, with office coligues to attend a party... It's a wonderful place , Ambience of the entrance of this hotel is just WOW.Courteous staffs. Nice conference room. Foods including drinks and beverages are good.Even its। a great place for hanging out with friends in weekend as well.

Its a great place to hang out for an evening drink. Used to flocked with bankers in the evening. A pitcher of beer and a great conversation awaits here. Good starters as well.

Disclaimer : This following review is that of an amateur independent freelance artist and NOT an employee or brand representative.<br/ Please do NOT take OFFENCE, all is written in great love n nostalgia.<br/ <br/ Also typo error alert if any. I shan 't spoil my review with unprofessional images.<br/ <br/ I 've eschewed from writing about Kenilworth Hotel Kolkata and Goa or Kenilworth Hotels as a collective brand because of the volumes I wish to share and my incapacity to distil them into a nutshell.<br/ <br/ I 'm no expert on brands and hospitality , I bear a half muddled educational background and currently hold a weekly show at their brand new avatar of the signature #TheBigBen Kolkata. I can 't explain how thrilled, grateful and motivated I feel as the weeks pass like a steady stream.<br/ <br/ When I simply look at the colour scheme, ie Turquoise White My birth color by Western and solar zodiac , I feel a positive initiation within my heart and soul.<br/ <br/ Going back to roughly 1999, I was in std X precisely , and my mom traced out a Sananda Tilottama prelim ad and showed me. She 's a fan gal and an artist who doesn 't socialize or drink or smoke or too savvy, not.<br/ <br/ I was already a fairly active model on the ramp n maybe these guys thought I should try.<br/ Along with me were many many big names of 2018.<br/ Future judges at another magnum colonial era five star triple deluxe hotel Ball Room Gala Finale were Bipasha Basu, Rani Mukherjee, Simi Garewal and many many more with the Queen Ms #Aparna Sen ruling the roost as the chief and director with her awesome team of ladies and Hazar stalwarts from around the world in tow. If I digress it will be longer.<br/ <br/ I still remember , this awkward gawky teen of 16ish wearing a gold wire mesh backless halter fishtail gown and high stilettos at almost 6 feet , cowering in a crowd of utter mediocrity and some sudden sparks of sheer talent at the grand Kenilworth Hotel with giant butterflies in my stomach and a giddy head.<br/ <br/ #Sanchita Kushary Bose , #Debarun Mukherjee , Anirudh Chakladar and many many more brilliant stars of the fashion industry .... I was like Alice In Wonderland sitting at the banquets of Kenilworth Hotel the main block .<br/ <br/ Mir Afsar Ali Mr Barry O 'BRIEN were anchors , I don 't remember who performed for that pageant. Ex winner was Arpita Pal.<br/ <br/ Auspicious as it was , I was selected though scoffed upon at my dress , arrogant demeanor and wild air .<br/ <br/ My many many more press and fashion stints as a model and party goer at the hotel sparkles fresh in my memory. I won 't distract you with the details. We were a wild bunch back then. Shhhhh.<br/ <br/ Much later , at 25+ I got hitched and shifted to Goa and lost touch with my city for 6.5 years technically. I was at my helm of career as an emcee with a strong global network of trust.<br/ <br/ Cutting to the chase , much later , in 2010, I stumbled upon #KenilworthHotelGoa. Can I add an extra 'aaaah '? This hidden beachfront Gem with the perfect everything on #Majorda, South Goa is a place you should retire/get hitched/holiday/shoot/unwind/pamper/heal at.<br/ <br/ If I don 't eat , perform , chill, work there for a while , I might die lol.<br/ <br/ I was blown over double but the security , exclusive air and the sheer ring of class but somehow kept away. I was a Goan hobo , testing the soil for a prospective career. I spent four peak seasons of life secretly sighing for Kenilworth and rocking with almost every other hotel. But I know I 'll go there soon. #Amen.<br/ <br/ Anyways cutting straight to the chase.<br/ <br/ #Kolkata #KenilworthHotel , and their brand new wing housing The Big Ben , one of the city 's premier English Pubs, more banquets, a series of art even the French will be jealous of no offence meant, joke alert and sheer perfection spilling over to the lawn, patio, walk way and of course the mother hotel. Sometimes I get stuck just staring at things there a latest sports #BMW, an original collection of M F #Hussain miniatures, the very best of sound, my best ever microphone, Me #Moses Aaron , our sound manager, the food and the impeccable presentation and taste ... How much can I praise ? It will taste like smooth alpine butter with herbs and garlic lol.<br/ <br/ By now you can understand I 'm an emotional and eccentric artist with utmost regards for class and commitment, because we Indians represent the cream of global hospitality and manners.<br/ <br/ Not convinced ? Check out the external facade of 1 2 Little Russell Street next to AC market , Shakespeare Sarani.<br/ <br/ Btw we have a rocking Saturday and Friday night scene every week that won 't leave you disappointed : <br/ <br/ PS Get your #tinder dates , wives, gals ,colleagues , or just alone, we don 't discriminate at all and promise you the best of service, f b, #entertainment and security for all above 18. We need ladies to brighten up such a lovely place, no??<br/ <br/ Oh the building dates back to the colonial era built by Armenians : <br/ <br/ Regards best commitments ,<br/ <br/ Priyanka Patra<br/ Non employee<br/ Just a random artist.

My favourite pub is Big Ben, the ambience, the courteous staff and their humble manager. Me and my wife's favourite pub is Big Ben. We have booked vouchers for Wine last year and my rating will be 5* for their impeccable hospitality.<br/
