Apartments in Udupi

We loved our stay at Jyoti Residency. Will definitely recommend anyone going there to stay there. Spacious clean rooms and close to the temple. Very few hotels out there who can provide the services like them. We were lucky to get 2 rooms there as someone had cancelled by the time we got in to their hotel around 9.30pm. Scouted a dozen hotels in and around the area but did not find any clean and tidy for a family of 4 to stay. Out of desperation, would have ended up taking some lodge hadn't I tried my luck at Jyoti Residency. Always suggest everyone to book hotels before going to such places. We had gone during Ugadi so almost all hotels were completely booked for the night. Would like to thank Biju and his team at the reception desk who were helpful throughout our stay and always wore a smile. Would like to specially call out to Tikko (housekeeping staff) who got my severe bout of shivering to a halt with his hand and leg massage and Reji Annan (their in-house driver) who drove me all the way to the nearby hospital that is 30kms away (Adarsha Hospital, Kundapura Highway) at around 1am in the night and got me back to the room safely by 3.30am. I'm really happy that there are such good people in this friendly temple town who goes out of their way to help you (something that was missing in our previous day stay in an overhyped Cafe, Gokarna).

I stayed at The Ocean Pearl on my visit to Udupi. I was there for work & stayed with them for 3 nights. Here are my ratings for some of the areas that I feel are important for travellers to know : 1. Location (4 out of 5) : The location is not absolutely at the heart of Udupi. But then, Udupi is not a huge city, it's a town. You can reach anywhere in 7-10 mins. 2. Check-in (5 out of 5) : My room was ready when I arrived, the check in process was over in less than 5 mins. If you are expecting a welcome drink, well that's not available. 3. Room (4.5 out of 5) : The rooms are pretty decent sized for 2 people. Since I was alone, it was more than adequate. The cooling was effective and the linens were clean. The view from my room was not very good. 4. Bathroom (4 out of 5) : They do not provide hand towels - just bathing towels. The toiletries they provide are avoidable - the soap, shampoo, body lotion etc. I'd prefer you carry yours. But towels are replaced daily, and the fresh towels smell excellent. 5. Food (5 out of 5) : I loved the food they served me. From the ghee roast to the beg thaali. Simply superb! The breakfast seemed repetitive - especially, the poori bhaaji, dosa, idli, upma & sheera. But I guess, in a way, that's what people also prefer. The bhaaji with the poori is to die for. Don't miss ghee roast pomfret - it's divine. The fish just melts away. 6. Room Service (5 out of 5) : I think their service has improved dramatically. Anything that I ordered was delivered within max 15-20 minutes. 7. Staff (5 out of 5) : Very helpful & courteous. It was a pleasure to speak with them. All in all, I feel it's a 4 out of 5 for me.

The hotel staff were very helpful, the location of the hotel is perfece and the parking space is very nice. However, The following things can be improved in the hotel. 1. Providing water bottle - Half litre water bottles ( non branded, or may be I will call it locally branded ) were provided. This can be replaced with a one litre branded water bottles so that as a guest I am very comfortable with the brand that I am using. 2. The AC in the room was having a little smell, I believe it is due to the AC machine which is old enough now for replacement, this can be fixed to make the guest feel more relaxed at the room 3. Since the booking was done, breakfast was complimentary, However, when we visited the breakfast counter, the ambience looked as if the breakfast was more of a obligatory event for the hotel. Choice of food was very less and also the quality of Dosa items especially were pathetic, the sourness in the dosa batter was evident in the smell of the food. Even though this was informed, at the counter itself, I did not get any response which made me feel that as a guest I am not being treated properly.

#FIRSTHEPLUSES We met the owner the day we arrived. This was my message to her. Thank you so much for arranging for a cooler. That sure made our evenings very pleasant in the sit out. Your recommendation for Prawn Biryani,silver fish 🐟 rawa fry for dinner was perfect too. And ofcourse it was only because of you that we could get to see the Heritage Village in Manipal and enjoy that regional authentic lunch at The Mill. She had also recommended seeing the Chariot procession held every day at the Krishna temple at Udupi. 🛕. Which we couldn't see but mentioning here for the benefit of other traveller's. #THEMINUSES The resort is blessed with an absolutely fabulous location. You are blessed with an absolutely fabulous location for the resort. However, would like to give you a suggestions to make your resort more attractive. 1. The overall look of the resort needs to be spruced up. The pond behind doesn't look clean. There was a foul smell coming from where our rooms were. But upon telling the Manager the next day that was taken care off. As in any other resort the cleaning staff should be on the job for it to always have a spruced up look. 2.The approach to get on to the boat needed to be swept clean and the boat itself needs to be spotlessly clean at all times for after all the charge for an hour is a considerable amount. Must add though that the boatman does a good job of showing the various sites. 2. The rooms- A)They were musty . B)There were cobwebs on the windows. The curtains had a few rings come off and they are definitely not adequate enough to shut out the light. The curtains need a change too.Perhaps Jaipur prints? C) One of the lights was not working. D) The lighting is inadequate. Table lamps will add to the general ambience of the room. E) The bathroom needs a shelf near the sink to keep toileteries.As well as more hooks or stand to hang clothes/ towels etc. The one already there is too high. F) The bathroom floor is smooth mosaic. It is dangerously slippery when wet. G) The colour combination of the walls and upholstery is dark. Could do with a more cheerful look. H) There is no intercom. It is unfair to expect guests to use their personal phones to get in touch with the staff. I) The wifi has very poor connectivity. The breakfast- On the first day since only the four of us were present in the resort There was no buffet breakfast. So after being told what was available the idlis and the sambhar was stone cold. The vada and the Dosa were both not upto the mark. There was a strange oil smell in the food. The order took a long time in getting done too. But having reported this to the manager the next day the breakfast was good and service prompt. A word about the staff- They are all very polite and helpful. And we were happy with their service. Only, it is important to ensure that they are bathed and clean when they report for work. Since the tariff you charge is steep, it will be nice if you pay immediate att

Located right next to the main bus stand, about 500 mts from the krishna temple, this is an excellent property for overnight stay. Very suitable for family of two adults and child children. For people coming on own car, very good basement parking facility is available. Room is good, maintenance is of high standards, staff reception and hospitality was also good. Very much recommended by me.

This is one of the best hotels I have been in India (under my budget). I loved it! The room was super big with wonderful views of the city; you could see up to Malpe (I was on the 8th floor, room 308). It was spotless clean and the staff were lovely. I couldn't ask for anything else. There is a nice pub with open view on the 4th floor to chill out at the end of the day. Besides the location is great, near Khrisna Temple and the bus terminal. I totally recommend it and if I go back to Udupi I'll stay here again.

We stayed in this resort for three nights from 24th to 27th Dec in Premium Room number 516 on 4th floor. The size of room was quite spacious and big. The room was clean. The bathroom size was also quite spacious and clean. As a bonus, it also had bath tub:-). All the staff including housekeeping, restaurant and front desk were very helpful, friendly and providing very prompt service. Buffet breakfast was of good quality and taste ***** with wide variety. However, the breakfast was served on 1st floor which was just a plain hall having plastic tables and chairs. Location of this resort was good as it meant that we were out of hustle-n-bustle of Udupi city. The distance of this resort from the nearest beach was just 15 minutes walk. The interior of the room and the hotel was dated. The rooms need painting. The furniture in the room such as wardrobe, cupboard etc needs polishing. The lobby in the reception area also had many patches of leakages and faded painting. Overall, this resort is in need of immediate refurbishing. They had provided Kettle and coffee mugs. But there was no tea bags/coffee/sugar sachets. I asked for the same to the reception but they said they can't provide the same. I also requested for hand towel, for which I got the same response from reception. Finally, since we stayed here during Christmas season, the price being charged was 2.5 times of normal rates. The price didn't justify the points I mentioned above. Unfortunately, for me it didn't turn out to be value for money.
