Hotels near Velur, Irusari Amman Temple, Kanchipuram

My husband and i had the most amazing stay experience at alampura resort. Its a mini paradise in itself. We loved all the water activities - few of them were even complimentary. Our camp or should we call the glamp was super comfortable, and luxurious, with one of the best views one could have asked for. Also, the food is tasty, and breakfast was fresh and with a lot of variety. Thanks to the warmth and generous hospitality of the staff at alampura resort, we had one of the most memorable stay.

We both being doctors , As we want to utilise the sunday ***** with independence day - we started our search in trip advisor & booked this resort. We stayed in pool villa. Worth stay and memorable. Good

Kids swimming pool area not working, that is the main facility to visit comparing with other resorts, we spent two days for that. But management said (just two hours sir. Just one day sir, next day it will be ready sir) but that facility was not ready when we were checking out. But 11. 45 am they called us to remind that we have to check out at 12pm but no info about swimming pool. After we checked out and brought all our luggages to reception they said swimming pool was ready. My kids very very upset and disappointed and literally started crying.

Very interesting place to stay. A simulated village with livestock surrounded by rice paddies. Interesting activities, including pottery, target practice. A pool, which we saw people enjoying but did not do ourselves. The evening entertainment was amazing - a Tamil folk dance troupe including rhythmic drumming. There was a school group and parents with children. I think city living Tamils bring their children here as a Tamil cultural experience. At first, it seemed cheesy but you have to let yourself get into it and then you find it very enjoyable. Good very reasonable meals.

Excellent service kumaresh and we came for event well organised the event and buffet system the guy was supre with smile and helping the service sector nice to visit this place thank you guys well enjoyed the party we are waiting for next Events

We had a short 2 night stay here whilst visiting the temples. Nice little guesthouse on a road stuffed full of them. Our room was small, but very clean and comfortable. The bed was fine and the A/C worked well in the room we had. There is a cafe/central area at the end of the building on the first floor that was a nice area to sit and read or relax. We only ate one breakfast there of a small omelette which was OK. Can't really comment on the rest of the food as we didn't have any. What I would say is that here, ***** with all of the surrounding area, are very specifically targeted towards tourists/travellers. The food that they serve and the prices they they charge all reflect this. If you want much better, cheaper Indian food, head to the small road to the left of the bus station and go 25m down there for an excellent place Mamalla Bhavan??). My only negative (hence 4 stars) was that they simply couldn't get the Internet working for us at all. They tried for 3 days, and even gave us the next door guesthouse and the cafe wifi, but they all kept disappearing. Maybe not their fault, but I could get the WiFi signal from the 2 guesthouses opposite the whole time. Not a big issue, but as we were trying to book future hotels, just a bit of a pain.

Unprofessional Attitude and Carelessness First of all, this is not a Hotel. It just qualifies for a lodge.I booked through makemytrip and I paid the charges in advance as I was travelling with family including my 7 month old. Before booking the hotel, I called them up about the facilities and basic amenities, and they agreed as mentioned in the website. We checked in on 21st Aug, at around 4pm as I drove from Bangalore. After entering the hotel we found the below issues, The rooms are very basic, and some parts of the furniture are broken which can be overlooked. No problem. The bathroom has no hooks to hang your clothes to towel The hotel has a roof top restaurant which serves only Pizza and Pasta The Room service menu contained a list contains Indian food, but its a lie as they did not provide Unfortunately , it started raining heavily from 7.30pm and the hotel front side was flooded. I called up room Service to order food but no answer I went down to reception to order some Indian food as we wanted to have simple veg rice, sambar etc. but the room service denied help and told me to arrange on my own. When I asked for help as I am not sure about restaurants nearby, and it was raining heavily, he immediately switched to Tamil and pretended not to understand anything I searched andwent down to a restaurant and brought food for my wife and myself, after walking through heavy rain and flood, on my own. The restaurant was around 400m away and the owner packed the food nicely. If the RAMAKRISHNA room service could have helped me a little, but NO. Also, the hotel was mostly empty, because I think others have experienced the similar fate, and thus the room service were idle, and they could have helped. I am really sad about the inhuman nature of the people in the hotel ’THE RAMAKRISHNA’ THE RAMAKRISHNA’ does not qualify to be a hotel. It is just a lodge I am sorry to have booked that hotel through make my trip. You get the same rooms for 1000 if you book in the hotel, and also there are adjacent hotel for Rs. 499, Rs. 899 etc This Lodge is NOT family friendly We checked out next morning at 9am and checked in to another HOTEL as the E Raja Street. We lost money in Ramakrishna, but that’s not the point. We got angry and frustrated during Vacation, and a bad memory associated with the place forever I will come back to this beautiful place again, but never book at the ‘RAMAKRISHNA’ again

Clean room, warming hospitality by michael, delicious seafood. This is a hotel i recommend for all who wish to have a memorable time in mamallapuram
