Hotels near Bandar (maqam) darga, Dakshina Kannada

We, the family, had a fabulous stay at Vivanta. The graces and attention to detail would remain with us for a long time. The entire team seems synchronized and driven to deliver a superb user experience. A big ‘thank you’ to the team. Would love to visit again.

We stayed for two nights and liked the generous room with the two separate beds. We found the room clean, pleasant and quiet, equipped with modern electronic controls, which makes the handling not necessarily easier. So at night for no reason at all the panel for the air condition was lighting up every once in a while. We did not find a way to stop that. The air condition itself worked well and temperature was easy to regulate. Both beds carried 2 identical, big pillows, too big for our comfort. Instead, we would have liked two pillows of different size in order to have a choice on which one to sleep best. But the Hotel had only one size of pillow. The breakfast on the fifth floor was abundant and of good quality. So we were to more than 80% happy with our Hotel.

Embarking on our South India tour from the UK, ***galore unexpectedly became a stopover, chosen for its proximity to the airport. Opting for the AJ Grand Hotel based on stellar reviews turned out to be a serendipitous decision. Situated in the heart of the city, the hotel provided convenient access to shopping, restaurants, and modern malls, all within a leisurely 30-minute walk. The reception staff's courtesy set a welcoming tone, ensuring a seamless check-in process. Our suite, impeccably clean with enhanced facilities, greeted us with an unexpected perk—an empty refrigerator, a thoughtful touch for personalising our stay with beverages and snacks. The hotel's two highly acclaimed restaurants surpassed expectations, offering a diverse array of delectable choices during main meal times. This meant that we rarely felt the need to explore dining options outside. Kudos to the entire restaurant staff, with a special mention for Ganesh, whose culinary insights enriched our menu selections, and Suresh, whose attentive service at breakfast was welcome. While the gym and swimming pool were compact, they proved functional and, more often than not, were a private sanctuary for our use. The potential future de***d for these facilities notwithstanding, our experience was one of undisturbed enjoyment. The reception staff, although not all adorned with name badges, stood out for their exceptional assistance. Their guidance in locating our boarding passes and travel documents for our onward journey was invaluable. We were particularly grateful for their considerate offer to extend our checkout time, seamlessly aligning with our travel arrangements—small gestures that made a significant difference. Having little prior knowledge of ***galore, we were pleasantly surprised by the city and its welcoming residents. Exploring the beach and other recommended sites, discovered through various YouTube videos, unveiled ***galore's potential as a future tourist attraction, perhaps even rivalling Goa in the future. However, we hope that the city ***ages to preserve its charm without succumbing to the challenges often associated with increased tourism. In conclusion, our stay at the AJ Grand Hotel was thoroughly enjoyable, and we who***eartedly recommend it as a top choice for future visitors. Warm regards, Prit and Punam

The location and in-room dining service of Goldfinch is very good. However, I didn't feel I got value for the money I paid. There was no Free WiFi and the cost of paid WiFi was quite ridiculous. Amenities like drinking water and even toilet paper were not restocked and had to be asked for. I wouldn't stay here again, especially since I can get these basic amenities without asking at cheaper hotels nearby.

The rooms and staff were all good and even the Looby looks very attractive and the mainly Mr Abhishek were very kind and helpful I will visit one more time to ginger manglore tq for giving me special treatment The rooms and staff were all good and even the Looby looks very attractive and the mainly Mr Abhishek

Decent clean rooms with all facilities required. One of the better places to stay in dharmasthala. Very conveniently close to the temple.

A good hotel near Dharmasthala temple. Rates are on the higher side but worth the money. Restaurant is also good. Food is tasty & rates are reasonable. Staff are courteous too. Since it’s six kilometres from Dharmasthala temple, you need to have your own vehicle or tourist car. I couldn’t see any Autos. It has a spa too. If you want to stay in a hotel without the noise around a temple then this is it.

*no tv connection *no hot water *no 24*7 reception staff availability *no housekeeping service not even once they cleaned my room when i stayed. * no proper restaurants around * rooms were not cleaned properly before check in. *rates are too high looking at emenities availability.
