Hotel Kanishka

This place name is now changed its called hotel marudhan grand

A disfunctional management process meant that we were at first refused a room despite a confirmed booking. The owner, who is far away, sends screenshots of the booking lists to the staff and apparently sometimes bookings get lost that way. Staff was very friendly and helpful. After we had finally gotten a room, the owner wanted to speak to us about the issue and apologized which is appreciated. However, he let us wait for over 20 minutes at 11pm in the night, during which time the poor receptionist was sitting in our room waiting for his boss to call us on his phone. We just wanted to sleep. Rooms are clean and OK, AC needs maintenance.

Passable for last minute stay. 1250 per night for ac single standard room, for which I would expect cleaner rooms, better ventilation and basic things like handwash, soap, toilet rolls, bottle of water etc. Nothing made available. Location is good, but VERY noisy as it's right in middle of market. Hotel gowrikrishna is a saving grace and all other stuff available within 100mts is a big plus. Look at hotel room pics I posted. OK for family stay only if you don't have any other choice or availability.

GOWRIKRISHNA VEGETARIAN HOTEL IS IN GROUND FLOOR ON SAME BUILDING,WELL EXPERIENCED STAFFS, GOOD FOOD A CLEAN HOTEL GOWRIKRISHNA. I DONT RECOMEND KANISHKA HOTEL WORST EXPERIENCE

A nice good place to stay with family and friends. The rooms are decent and have basic stuff like a cot and and an attached bathroom. Don't expect modern stuff like kettle or oven. They have room service until 11pm and can get vegetarian stuff from the restaurant on the ground floor. There is a bar attached, however bit has a different access than that of the hotel. There is ample parking space for cars and can be accessed from the rear gate also. Note that the parking and the hotel are both not wheelchair friendly. The lift in the hotel only connects the lobby in first floor with the rooms in the above two floors.

Rooms are good. We took an AC 3 bed room. The room was sufficiently large. Geyser was in good working condition. Allowed for hot water whenever needed. Hotel is in a great Location, close to the main shopping area of the town and nearby several decent restaurants.

Lies along side the main road. Need to walk one floor by stairs and then we can cover the rest of the floors by lift. Thats how it was designed. Room are available at affordable price. Have quite good parking facilities. Can park 3 or 4 cars in the morning and at night can park 7 to 8 cars. We have a veg restaurant in the ground floor which is one of the famous shops in Kumbakonam.

Decent rooms with Clean restrooms. 24 hours check in/out available. Close to the bus stand, railway station and kumbakonam temples. The restaurant next to the lodge offers decent south Indian food which makes this place a complete comfort package.
