This hotel doesn't appear to be sufficiently notable for a Wikipedia standalone article, and it doesn't meet WP:NCORP. A WP:BEFORE search brings up numerous trip or travel websites promoting it, so there's no doubt it exists, but there just isn't "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject".

- Comment. I declined a prod on this a month ago because I found some sources (now in the article). I'm iffy on notability as well, but wanted to point out that this is not really a hotel—or, if it is, it's not notable for being a hotel. Its main claim to fame is as a restaurant.

- Keep. To add to AleatoryPonderings's note from above, in the Indian context, often times, hotel is used synonymously with restaurants. Specifically regarding Woodlands, this particular hotel has some heritage notability as well. I see that a couple of books have also been added to the references list.

- Weak keep - possibly notable as a restaurant. Bearian (talk) 17:57, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
- Keep The most common usage for the word "Hotel" in India is for restaurants. Often lower budget Hotels are termed as lodges or guesthouses. I understand that single restaurant is rarely notable, but this specific restaurant seems to be notable meeting WP:GNG as per WP:SIRS. It has a long history and popularized a specific cuisine in a pretty large metro city of India. It has received significant coverage in number of RS books and is one of top tourist destinations for anyone visiting the city. Roller26 (talk) 14:04, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
