Hotel Tribhuvan

Hotel Tribhuvan is over on 5th Main Road in Gandhi Nagar. We are right opposite the Tribhuvan Theatre, so we get a lot of that movie-going crowd passing by. In this part of Bangalore, the traffic is almost always a nightmare, and the noise of the buses is just something you learn to live with. We’ve been at this address, 560009, for quite a few years now. The building shows its age in some places, but we try to keep it functional. It’s a busy street, so there’s always dust coming in, and we’re constantly cleaning the floors. My day usually starts early, before the theater even opens its first show. I spend a lot of time talking to the suppliers or checking if the rooms are ready for whoever is coming in next. It’s a local kind of place. We don’t have those big fancy fountains or bellboys in hats. It’s just a few of us making sure people have a place to sleep. Sometimes the elevators are a bit slow, or the street noise is a bit much for people not used to Gandhi Nagar, but that’s the reality of being in the middle of the city. We don’t try to hide that. It’s a lot of hard work and long hours, but it’s what we do. We’re just a regular part of this neighborhood, tucked away among the shops.
