We conducted a 50 members meeting here with dinner. For that meeting preparation I asked them to offer a room for one night. They replied said no rooms were available. But when I search some other hotel nearby in Cleartrip, I found a room available in Metropole itself. I am not sure how it is possible. It seems like they... More

Our room was at the front of the hotel and the street noise could be heard but did not keep up awake. The room was clean but we had to ask for toilet rolls every time we needed them ! There was no wifi which was a nuisance as we had to find an internet cafe. The buffet breakfast was... More

I think if we ever went back to Madurai, we would stay somewhere else. Having looked at its website we had gained a slightly misleading impression. The room was pretty clean, but the bathroom had a fairly strong, rancid smell, we couldn't tell if it was the drains or the shower curtain. The windows in our room didn't fit properly... More

Pros: Clean, in a quiet part of town, an eatery right outside, probably among the top 10 hotels in Madurai Cons: Very very poor bathroom, fast-dating infrastructure It must have been a good hotel when launched but looks like they are not maintaining it well. If you can afford the better hotels, should skip this.

We chose this hotel based on good reviews in Trip Advisor. We made a booking for 4 rooms about a week in advance and the people who spoke to us confirmed the booking 2 times. Again before leaving from Chennai we called the hotel and confirmed our arrival and again there was a clear commitment on the booking. Although we... More

I stayed here after reading the various reviews. It is very much in the heart of the mid town, just 4 kms away from Meenakshi Temple and about 5 kms distance to Railway Station, Bus station. The hotel was very clean, surprisingly quiet at night, and the staff was super helpful. The location is perfect - close to everything. The... More

We stayed at this hotel for a day during our visit to Madurai. Though it is located slightly away from the city centre, it is in the midst of greenery. As the area is less noisy and less crowded, you can sleep peacefully and also have a good morning walk. The hotel is nicely maintained with clean rooms/bathrooms. Car parking... More

I happen to stay in the hotel for 2 days during the official trip. I reached around 11 pm, i had called the room service to keep food ready. The food was not very good for the value charged to me but the room service was very prompt. The room provided to me at the first instant was not neat,... More

The room is comfortable but expensive for 2800/-. The location is great, away from the buzz of the city close to the court and KK nagar area. We did not eat there. If you are non-veg, the food at Kumar mess should not be missed. They have a fancy place opp the new bus-stand and the old one in the... More
