The Clarion Hotel IFSC's in-house restaurant is called Kudos - a modern and stylish establishment, on the ground floor, that can accommodate up to 60 people. It specialises in Asian and Thai cuisine. It is served in a glass walled space with white linen on solid oak tables and views over the IFSC boulevard.

Lunch is served Monday to Friday from 12pm to 2.30 pm and dinner is from 6pm to 9.45pm. A pre theatre menu is also available - 6pm to 7.30pm (Sunday to Friday) and 6.30pm to 7.30pm on Saturday.

You'll also find a very good Room Service Menu in your room. It offers guest a choice of dishes from the European Corner and the Asian Corner. It's available between 11am and 11pm, 7 days. And there's also a Night Owl Menu in your room which mainly consists of soup and sandwiches and it is available between 11pm and 5am.

Breakfast is on offer in the restaurant each weekday morning between the hours of 7am - 10.30am. It consists of a fantastic buffet of hot and cold foods. On weekends it's served between 7.30am and 11.30am.

You also have the option of having breakfast delivered to your room. Just leave the menu hanging on the door the night before.

If you do happen to be departing early in the morning, you can arrange at reception to have a continental breakfast after 5am.

Kudos Bar is a large, bright, spacious bar, which is popular with guests and locals alike. It's an Asian themed bar that serves Asian and Mediterranean food all day long. We thought that this was a great bar, as you can enjoy a nice drink and watch the chef prepare your food at the Wok station in the open kitchen.

Savour Lounge is located near the bar and is open all day serving snacks from 11am-11pm. It serves as a resident's bar at night.

The restaurant and bar are very popular and can be accessed from the entrance on Excise Walk, which runs beside the hotel.

The Clarion Hotel IFSC offers really good leisure facilities in the Sanovitae Health & Fitness Club, which is on the basement level. Here you'll find an 18-metre heated swimming pool, a well-equipped gym with over 50 pieces of cardiovascular equipment as well as weight equipment and free weights, a sauna, steam room and jacuzzi - there's no charge for guests. It's the perfect place for relaxing after a busy day sight seeing.It's open Monday to Friday 6am to 10pm and weekends (and Bank Holidays) 8am to 8pm. Children, (anyone under 18) are only allowed in the pool - Monday to Sunday 10am and 12 noon and 2pm and 5pm.

If this isn't enough there's also a flexibility room with classes in spinning, aerobics and bodyline - and again its free for guests.

Babysitting can be arranged on request.

Know Before You Go -

Check in time is 2pm and check out time is 12 noon.

If you're bringing the kids, the hotel supplies games and even has a Children's Library. All family rooms have a DVD player (by the way, you'll need to bring your own DVDs) but if they are interested in the pool and the leisure facilities just remember that both time and age restrictions apply to all children using the facilities.

The car park, which costs around EUR10.00 for 24 hours is located a few doors down from the hotel towards the city - the number of spaces is limited though.
