The hotel is close to the Temple. But it’s in a noisy marketplace that you can hear the vendors (they use a megaphone to shout). The WC was constantly leaking. They fix it after complaining but the leaking starts again with use

The AC in the restaurant was switched off to save electricity cost and I was sweating a lot during breakfast. No fan and no power outlet to connect to anything. Very disappointed. Next time I will not be staying here for sure. I don't mind paying extra. I need AC to work.

The hotel facilities were average to good. The staff were helpful.
It would be useful to provide laundry ironing services for sarees or borrowing of an ironas many guests visit Thanjavur for temples.

Very nice hotel in Thanjavur very close to the Brihadisvara Temple. The bus station is behind the corner and the train station a short tuk tuk ride away. Good internet, the hotel has 2 restaurants: one vegetarian and one both vegetarian and non. I tried the vegetarian and it was too class.

Great Location and Friendly Staff

Right in the heat of the city within easy walking of the Temple and the Grand Palace. The bazaars and shops are right there. You are in the frenetic mad world of the Indian road system and it's just great. For a really local experience the location was just right.

Average hotel in busy central location

Good lobby and communal areas but rooms outdated and somewhat dirty, dark and dinghy as windows can't be opened far and open out to concrete noisy surroundings. Location in central busy area not conducive to peace and quiet or light and dust free stay.

Nice stay on my road trip to south India

Positively charmed by the kindness of the personnel. From receptionist to bellboy, everybody was so friendly.
It made me in a good mood and the joy continued with the visit of the temple and the palace.
