Ekante Bliss, Tirupati - IHCL SeleQtions

On our way back from Tirumala, we stopped at Ekanta Bliss for a quick lunch. I later found out it's an economical version of the Taj hotels. We decided to eat at the restaurant, and the lady there was very helpful with our selections. We were a bit surprised because we were the only two people having lunch. Later, a small group of ladies entered the restaurant and sat in one corner. For a place that could seat over a hundred people, having just a few diners seemed odd. We were concerned about the food quality, but it turned out great. The lady suggested a temple thali, which was new to us. It included items like chakkara pongal and panagam, mixing Andhra food with temple delicacies. It was quite tasty. For the two of us, the meal cost around 1500 rupees. It felt a bit pricey since you can usually get a lunch thali for about 300 rupees, but this one was around 700 rupees each. The food was delicious, and the ambience was great--quiet and peaceful, making it a relaxing place for lunch. My only complaint would be the music. Instead of soothing flute music fitting for a religious place, they played loud and fast-paced western music, which didn't match the mood. Overall, for a relaxing atmosphere and tasty food, I would recommend this place.

A Divine Experience at Ekante Bliss - Perfect for Families with Kids! It was our toddler's first visit to Tirumala, and Ekante Bliss made it truly special. From the moment we arrived, the divine ambiance and the signature Shanku pattern of Lord Venkateswara at the entrance set a serene and spiritual tone for our stay. A special shoutout to Sathi from the staff, who warmly welcomed our toddler with a traditional tilak and made her feel so cherished. Her kindness and gentle demeanor reflected the warmth of Indian hospitality, and we truly appreciated it. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained, with top-notch service and luxurious, comfortable rooms. It says 3 star hotel but maintains 5 star standards . Everything was thoughtfully arranged for families traveling with young children. Breakfast the next morning was delightful, with both Indian and English options--perfect for kids and adults alike. We also loved that there's a pool available, which can be accessed with a booking. Thank you,Ekante Bliss, for making our little one's first Tirumala visit so memorable. We highly recommend this place to NRIs and families with kids--you won't be disappointed!

We stayed for two nights (2nd to 4th) and had requested interconnecting rooms during booking. Appreciate the team for honoring that--it made the stay convenient for our family. The rooms were clean, well-maintained, and overall, it was a very comfortable stay.||A couple of areas could be improved. The AC was inconsistent--running without cooling at times, then suddenly working fine. I reported it to the receptionist but didn't hear back, though I believe it may have been addressed in the background.||The complimentary breakfast buffet was okay. Personally, I felt the vada and Pongal could be improved in taste, and the spread was very routine. We missed vadacurry on the menu. Room service was decent, but even a tea order took nearly 20 minutes.||Check-in took longer than expected, and during checkout, there was no one available to assist, which was a bit inconvenient.||That said, the overall hospitality was good, and the staff were polite. The comfortable rooms and clean environment made it a pleasant experience. With a few tweaks, this can be an excellent stay option.

It was a Great experience and most friendly staffs with good breakfast spread. The hotel has Specious and very clean Rooms. My kids and wife really enjoyed the stay. Location of the hotel also very nearby to the bus stand. Wish to visit again in the future.

Excellent place to stay in Tirupati. The staff is well groomed, helpful and courteous. The rooms are clean and spacious. Food is great and a sumptuous servings in the A-La-Carte orders. The services if quick and they also have Jain options available if required.

Cons: No Temperature Control in Swimming Pool - It would have been nice to have heated water, especially during cooler days.

Thank you for having us Ekante Bliss. Hotel is in close proximity to airport. 30min from airport. Aditya from in dining services helped us a lot as per our food preferences. Kids enjoyed the complimentary dishes & warm pudding offered to us. Aditya made special salad as per our requirement with utmost care. He Ensured we are taken care regarding good food and followed up everyday with us. Service was fabulous and received with care. Rooms are good . kids friendly.

Happy that we booked the hotel. The welcome music was refreshing and we loved it. The welcome drink was just a formality and nothing to talk about. The front desk could have been faster and much more efficient. They need to review their front desk business process . The GM appeared to be looking after every nook and corner, efficiently. He somehow missed looking up the front desk management, or it was out of his domain!
