The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Indian Cuisine

I had the pleasure of dining at the Garam Masala Indian restaurant within The Vic Hotel, and it was absolutely good. The biryanis were fragrant, the curries were bursting with flavor, and the tandoori dishes were cooked to perfection. This is truly a haven for Indian food lovers. I recommend trying their array of authentic dishes; they are crafted with such skill and care. Each meal was a joyous experience that I will remember fondly.

Relaxing Pool Experience

The swimming pool at The Vic Hotel was well-maintained and a perfect spot to unwind. I loved spending my afternoons here, enjoying the sunshine and the clean surroundings. The pool area also had ample shaded spots, making it comfortable during the hotter days. It was a great way to cool off and relax after exploring the city. I also noticed that families enjoyed the pool during the weekends, creating a lively yet pleasant atmosphere.
