Reviews and Ratings
Nirvana is a truly special place, perfect for any occasion, not just birthdays. The rooms are inviting and comfortable, and the menu is extensive, featuring some standout dishes like the Baked Camembert and Shrimps on a Skewer over Pineapple. The dining experience was top-notch with exceptional drink selections, though the communal BBQ feast wasn’t ideal. While the overall experience was delightful, I truly missed the BBQ pork ribs that used to be a highlight.
My dining experience at Nirvana was a mix of good and bad. The food was decent, but the overall service could use a lot of improvement. I was disappointed with the cleanliness and atmosphere, which made it feel unwelcoming, especially for families. While the grounds are beautiful, the dining setup left much to be desired.
We had a beautiful experience at Nirvana Restaurant and Retreat with stunning gardens and a relaxing atmosphere. The views from our private terrace were incredible, and the food was delicious. However, we faced a frustrating reservation mix-up that caused some stress during our stay. While the chaos was unfortunate, it didn’t overshadow the overall charm of the hotel.
Our stay at this hotel was truly special, with fantastic dining and a serene environment that really made our anniversary memorable. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. While the service could use a bit more warmth, the overall experience was delightful and comforting.
