Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Distance from the ghats — The hotel is outside the tourist heart, so expect a drive of about 20 minutes by car to the main ghats, with heavy traffic possible.
  • Rooms can feel tired — Some guests note that the rooms are a bit shabby, even if comfortable, and general comfort and facilities scores are the lowest categories.
  • Possible noise from dining areas — One guest mentioned hearing noise from the dining and bar areas, suggesting the on-site venues can be audible from rooms.
