Hari Iyer Residency

The room was spacious, clean, and had a double bed. The bedspread had oil stains, though it had been washed. Noise was the bigger problem: roosters kept crowing outside, apparently from birds being raised behind the hotel, and staff sat on the stairs playing phone videos loudly much of the time. I couldn't sleep properly at night.

We called ahead to ask for one extra hour at checkout, and they agreed. But at 6 am they insisted we leave exactly at the 24-hour mark, even though we had children with us. We ended up paying a full day's amount for that one hour, and they were rude about it. Please avoid this place and try another hotel.

In March 2025, I paid 4400 online for two nights in a triple room, then was charged another 1000 rs for AC. I don't mean this as a personal attack on the owner, who may not know about these problems. I'm sharing what happened during my stay so others are aware. The wash basin wouldn't drain, the TV channels kept buffering, and the room wasn't renewed for the second day. When we asked about things, it felt like they were just trying to get away from the request. At night, I found old food stuck to an unwashed bedsheet, which had been folded neatly over the bed. The pillows seemed very old, and the white towel was in very poor condition. For me, staying there with my family felt like sleeping on a roadside platform. Think it over before booking. It's each person's own decision.

The beach and famous Murugan Temple are only minutes away, and that location made getting around easy. Our room was roomy, spotless, and well cared for, with a comfortable mattress, working AC in the summer heat, and a window view of lovely sunsets over the temple town. Staff were courteous and quick with room service, and the Wi-Fi stayed stable. After a long day, the place felt welcoming and peaceful. I'd happily recommend it to families, couples, or solo travelers visiting Tiruchendur for a pilgrimage, a coastal break, or just passing through.
