Stephen showed his willingness to accommodate guests before we'd even met him, as we rather cheekily requested that we have our tabla lesson in his home about an hour after we arrived - not only did he cheerily agree, but took the teacher's number in order to offer lessons to future guests. And it was uphill from then on, really... More

Stephen sorry about my tardiness in writing this review but since leaving you we travelled up north and just got home. Anyway to be honest I didn't really want to give you a positive review because I was worried too many people would go and there may not be availability when I wanted to go next :) But conscience got...

I knew it! You'd spotted that lost look in my eyes and the sarcasm in Manjula's voice when she calls me boss. The bed and breakfast is Manjula with a hanger-on (aka me) that has a pretty good life. Just to prove it, I'm now in the UK for some corporate work and to see my sons. The BnB is... More

We stayed for four nights with Stephen and Manjula at the Mysore b&b after one night at the Park Lane hotel and really enjoyed our stay. We had a really lovely simple room on the ground floor of Stephen's house. There was a shared toilet right next to our room and a bathroom with hot water just down the hall,... More

Thank you Stephen, Manjula, Vacent and Lucy for a fantastic experience in and around Mysore. Your comfortable home and atmosphere, the amazing homecooked excellent food, the refreshing beers and wine and not to be missed the active converstaions! Loved the Sea Buckthorn juice and condiments.

Thank you... So pleased you found it a relaxing respite. We're getting a little ourselves now as its just a little bit quieter. Glad you liked the sea buckthorn jam and juice. It was worthwhile getting it from the Himalayas and we'll restock in a few months. I'm away for a few weeks in the UK but the team will... More

What a lovely review. Thank you so much. You've discovered my not-such-a-secret. It's a factory for friends....well not a factory, that sounds impersonal and we're all far from that...an opportunity, that I love, for meeting new people, creating great connections, and becoming real and hopefully lasting friends. It's now quietening down a little so I use the opportunity to go... More

I have to agree all the reviews are accurate. Mysore Bed and Breakfast is a fantastic place to stay. Very clean, with Stephen and his assistant Manjula always willing to help make your holiday enjoyable. Make sure you stay long enough to enjoy the two superb bike tours that he runs as Mycycle Tours. I will be back if opportunity... More

What a great place! Stephen and Manjula are great hosts and we really enjoyed staying here! Superbig breakfasts with everything a good breakfast needs! Stephen gives a lot of info about Mysore (history, but also good restaurant info and bus/travel advice). We have moved on, but miss the place already! Would go back in a heartbeat!

Stephen is a very individual and engaging host, very ably supported by Manjula who capably manages the domestics. Stephen's colourful personality, and enthusiasm for and knowledge of India, added hugely to our stay and we are sure there are many guests who feel as if they have stayed in a friend's house. The house, its décor and its location create... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
You are very much sharing my home when you stay at the BnB. Its in a residential area ten minutes way from the Palace at the centre. We have a lounge, sun terrace, WiFi and we can offer collection from rail station or airport. There are four double bedrooms with two shared toilets and seperate bathrooms.. I'm Stephen, an English guy who's settled here for the past three years. We provide a good breakfast usually toast, scrambled egg, mushrooms, fruit, tea/coffee or indian by arrangement and a big favourite is Manjula's home cooking. We can advise on the best bits of wonderful Mysore and the surrounding area to suit your wishes and help with your continuing trip. We do believe that its the people that 'make the place' and we love making great new friends from our wonderfully diverse visitors. ... more   less
