Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I reserved a Room in this Hotel from 9th March 2024 to 20th March 2024 and Paid my Room rent for 1 day as advised by the Manager of the Hotel. As soon as I checked-in at the Hotel, they demanded the Payment for extra for 1 More Night saying that their accounts department wanted the Payment urgently. This annoyed me as usually all Hotels demand 1 Night advance Payment and take the Next days Payment on check-out only. This Hotel does not have a Car Park and the Car has to be left in the Road Only. Rooms are good with Geyser and Air conditioner is working. No Restaurants, but there are service boys to get Food from outside.

Ideally located in a calm but commercial place where the famous temples of Lord Adhikumbheswarar and Lord Sarrangapani , and other temples are situated. We stayed in a Deluxe room on 3rd floor. Spacious with wardrobe and a clean restroom. Complimentary Bottled drinking water (1 number) of local brand, tasting little saltish, is provided daily. No kettle or toiletry is given. But room needs make over as walls and curtains are shabby and dirty. Staff are courteous and helping type. Unfortunately, no good eatery is found in this busy part of town.

We visited Kumbakonam in October 2020 to offer prayers at Temples. We stayed at the Metro. Our experience was very good. The room was neat and clean. The bath was clean as well with exhaust fan. The AC unit was effective and quiet. Check in and Check out was smooth. They offer 24 hour checkout. A few suggestions (1) need one more charging point / socket in the room. There are only two points one of which is obscured by the wall TV leaving only one for use. (2) The water pressure in the bathroom shower as well as hand-hose attached to WC was low, this was a bit difficult to manage. (3) The Hotel had blocked temple websites on their WiFi which made gathering information about Temples difficult, we did not raise it with them. Nothing serious, overall we had a very comfortable stay. Special thanks to the Staff. Srinivasan Chennai.

Most Kumbakonam hotels are on the outskirts of the city, and those serving tour groups are out of town. Hotel Metro is located in the city center within walking distance of the 4-5 most interesting temples in Kumbakonam. It is a modern hotel with affordable rooms of good standard. The rooms are not very big, but clean and relatively newly furnished. The staff is friendly and efficient. The hotel is perfectly located for exploring the temples on your own. You will meet kindness and helpfulness as you walk around the city, although most people do not understand or speak much English. There are several small vegetarian restaurants nearby where you can get thali, biryani, dosa, etc. for almost no money. If you want a beer or a burger or chicken, you must take a rickshaw to one of the big hotels on the outskirts. The city center is too holy ground to such outings, but the rickshaw drivers have a fine understanding of the tourists' different needs.

Poor maintenance. When we first entered into the room it was full of cigarette smell. Toilet looks like a corporation toilet. I never recommend to anyone. Room isn't cleaned either. Such a worst hotel with no amenities.

The hotel is located very close to Sarangapani Temple. The rooms are clean however there was a foul smell from the bathrooms. We had taken 3 rooms but all three had the foul smells.The hotel doesnot have a restaurant but there are many restaurants at a walkable distance. As Kumbakonam is a temple town, there are many famous Temples around. The following are the main temples in Kumbakonam and nearby areas. Apart from the listed mentioned below there are navagraha temples • Swamimalai Murugan Temple • Airawateswara Temple (must visit – a UNESCO heritage) • Mottai Gopura Vasal Athi Kumbeshvarar Temple, • Kasiviswanather temple • Arulmigu Sarangapani Swamy Temple • Nageswaran Temple • Nachiyar koil • Uppiliappan temple Where to Eat in Kumbakonam • Sree Mangalambika ; The food is good and reasonably priced. But the ambience is unclean, old and carries an unhygienic look • Venkataramana, : Simple meal at a reasonable price. But the service is pathetic and always chaotic. It’s difficult to get seats during lunch time and the hotel is non A/C • Balaji Bhavan,: The restaurant is neat and clean but the waiters are confused and lacks proper training. Don’t be surprised to see when the serving people and cleaning people fights and argues each other.The lunch thali good but highly overpriced. • Kumbakonam Murari sweets : try the sweets and the one branch located at Sasta college area only serves North Indian stuff • Murugan Coffee : The restaurant starts serving Coffee from 4.30 Am.One of the best coffee I ever had in my life. Filter coffee at its best -forget the Lattes,Capuchinos and Machiaotos of the world • Murali Coffee : Both Murugan and Murali coffee is located at the Mutt street facing each other.I have tried both but found Murali coffee is not up to the mark. Near By Temples • Thirunellar Shani Temple -1.30 hours from Kumbakonam • Thiruvarur Thyagaraja Temple - 1.30 hours from Kumbakonam • Mayuranathaswami Temple,Mayiladuthurai – 45 minutes from Kumbakonam • Parimala Ranganathar temple,mayiladuthurai -45 minutes from Kumbakonam • Chidambaram temple (2 hours from Kumbakonam • Vaitheswaran Koil (1.15 hours from Kumbakonam
