This is probably the best accommodation we saw in the town itself. It was brightly lit and easy to find. The streets around the hotel are dirty but probablly no more dirty than anywhere in India. I cant blame the hotel for thet. The staff here are very helpful and courteous. I enjoyed my stay here and would not hesitate to reccomend it to anyone. There are a few nice restaurants next to the hotel where you can get a beer and some wine.

Super helpful staff
We stayed 1 night. The person at the check-in was super helfpful. He showed us another room when we asked to get something away from the street. We ended up in the room overlooking the street and did not have trouble with noise at all. Clean well decorated room, clean bathroom. The person at the check in helped us a lot of information about ways to explore mahabalipuram, how to get to chennai next day, where to eat etc. Also showed us a shortcut to go to the music festival on the beach. We were also able to keep our luggage next day after checking-out. location is very close to the beach connected to the fisherman colony. The shore temple beach is also not very far. many eateries walking distance.

Abgewohntes Hotel in zentraler Lage.
Gute, sichere Lage, für einen Kurzaufenthalt o.k. Zimmer sind allerdings abgewohnt und leider nicht besonders sauber. Zimmer ohne Fenster. Personal freundlich.

場所は便利だけど・・
11:00くらいに早めのチェックインで、本当は早く部屋に入るとお金が発生するって言われたけど「外のテラスで待っててもいい?」って聞いたら「特別だからね」と部屋に通してくれました。 ホテル建物の雰囲気、スタッフの方の対応はとても良かったけど部屋はいまいち。 夜エアコンをつけて寝たら朝エアコンから水が降ってきました。 外光が全然入らず暗いし、蚊も多く快適とは言えないかなぁ。 お湯は出ました。

Convenient but disappointing
The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful but the condition of the hotel let it down. It was filthy. The bathroom was disgusting, dirty and smelly. The sheets were sticky and the cover on the bed was dirty (obviously hadn't been washed). I had travelled for 2 weeks in India before this hotel so used to conditions.

Good, comfortable hotel; friendly staff
Staff were friendly and helpful; the room we got was good, but the air conditioning was stuck on gale force. Luckily, it was fine to use just the ceiling fans, though in hotter months, this might have been a problem. The wifi was okay, but you need a code which is good for 650MB and two connections - which was a problem, since we were uploading all our pictures, so kept running out, and needing new codes. Breakfast wasn/t included, but there are lots of places nearby to visit. I don't really understand why they don't make use of the restaurant on the roof, though - it could be a lovely place to sit. Instead, it's an sadly underused and neglected space.

Decent clean hotel- Average amenities and decor
A no frills budget hotel. You basically get what you pay for. At its cheap rate, you get a small clean room. The Internet wasn't working the night I was staying. I don't know if it's because of the rains. There wasn't hot water either. But keep in mind the low hotel rate. That's the biggest plus. The front desk gentlemen were very nice. From my experience I would strongly suggest staying in Chennai and just coming out in Mamallapuram for the day and heading back to chennai for the night. Better option and value of hotels there rather than in Mahabalipuram which is essentially a tiny town.

conforme aux standards
- Service nonchalant. - Contrairement à ce qui est annoncé, l'hôtel est situé dans la ville Noire et non dans la ville Blanche. - Chambre propre et confortable. - Taches "propres" sur les draps (je veux dire par là que les draps ont été lavés mais que les tâches sont restées) - Wifi fonctionne très bien. Globalement, bon rapport qualité/ prix

Great stay here
We arrived around 2am, but were greeted at the gate- quite a welcome sight. Staff was helpful and courteous. I enjoyed the layout of the facility- our room was on the third floor with a shared open deck. The room is small/cozy, but it and furnishings had a pleasant quality to them. Some mosquitoes made their way into the room, maybe through the bathroom fan, but this was a common occurrence in our travels. Its a small town, so Ramakrishna is close to everything. I would stay here again.
