Saravana Hotel & Residency

Highlight is its location - right inside the bus stand. Everything else is bad. The walkway to the rooms wasn't lit well, so had to go through darkish lanes. Towels weren't provided. No hot water. Probably because Room rent was low. Room was off decent size. Bathroom wasn't that clean. Stay for a few hours during transit, if traveling alone.

This is a small hotel behind the Virudhachalam bus stand. In fact entry to the hotel is through the bus stand. The hotel has small parking space for parking two wheelers and do not appear to have car parking. The hotel has small restaurant where food, snacks and beverages are available. Suitable for business travellers and lone tourists who travel by public transport.

It was open at midnight. The room was just ok. Washroom wasn't maintained well. AC was working and we got an extra blanket when we asked in the mid night. This place is just right behind the bus stand but no parking.

AC was good and comfortable to sleep with no disturbance. Bedsheets and pillows are not washed properly. Bathroom was not that clean. Everything is sticky.

Looked like a recently started hotel cum residency near Vridhachalam bus stand. (I think its may be 1 year old or so). Booked Double Non-AC room for 800/- as a solo traveller for my 2 days stay which i feel is too pricy for this small town and considering the value we receive for that. As a regular traveller i feel it should be around 500-700. No amenities like water bottle, towel, soap provided. (Residency is different from Lodge). No credit card facility for payment, but accepted Google Pay, which i was happy to do. Offered AC room for 900/- which i rejected since i was not comfortable with AC as the climate was very chill. I didn't use their hotel service and hence can't comment on that. Near by construction works were going, hence it was very noisy. Entrance to hotel is too small. Not sure about parking facilities. No lift facility available so old people may find it difficult. Not happy with cleanliness. Room was dusty along with bed sheets and pillows. Not very much sure about room service availability. Room size was ok but ventilation was not up to the mark. People may find it difficult during summer times. Mosquito problem was there also. Water heater was available and hence no problem in getting hot water whenever needed. During my stay lots of cigarette smells from near by rooms in the corridor area, but no problem once inside the room, hence it was ok for me. Since i came for temple visit and visited all planned temples to my satisfaction i felt my overall stay was fair and ok. ( I was not in the room for much of the time). Hotel Kitchen is directly in the ground floor, but i didn't face any heat issues may be due to the climate. Not sure about other rooms. Positives:- 1. Readily available hot water (Very helpful when you had to take bath early in the morning especially this Margazhi season) 2. Near to Bus Stand (Its actually inside the bus stand) and not very far from Railway Station also 3. CCTV cameras Negative:- 1. Near to bus stand, hence lots of movement noise for most of the time (for me it was ok) 2. No proper Ventilation. Will be difficult during Hot Summer Days. 3. No cloth hanging hooks, hence difficult to keep cloths. (Not a big negative) Suggestion:- 1. Management can consider reducing price especially for Solo travellers and considering the amenities provided 2. Can keep a dust-bin inside the room 3. Can fix cloth hang hooks inside the room WILL I STAY AGAIN - YES (No if am on a very tight budget) - Overall i felt fair and ok with my stay and i feel family persons can also give a try. Not recommended for tight budget travellers

It's ok... But there is no ventilation for fresh air.. It's in a Conjusted place, but this is located in Vridhachalam bus depot.. So it's easy t access to all the places near by.

Gud maintenance but rooms size is small when compared to other
