Independent, Malavalli hotels

"nice"

"We had a good time during our recent stay for a day trip to Mysore. The hotel staff is quite accommodating and the facilities are nice. Recommend this hotel for anyone who wants a quiet space in the middle of the city. "

"Reasonably OK for the price, Parking and approach to the Hotel(the road is very congested, and other vehicles are parked waywardly on the road making it difficult to reach the Hotel). Also, the security asked to park somewhere in the street, and after a quarrel, he provided the space in the nearby hotel which they own). "

"Hotel was clean and service excellent. The breakfast though could hv had more choices. Not very happy with thd menu."

"The staff was excellent in providing Jain food in a timely manner and helping me with my aged parents by holding their hands and serving them food from buffet so I can have a cup of tea. They also special ordered breakfast for my daughter who did not want to eat from buffet. The eggless muffins were tasty, best eggless item"

"We spent a delightful 4 nights at the Royal Orchid Metropole. It has a good location, just 5 or 10 minutes from the Palace by auto rickshaw. It is a genuine heritage property, and the furniture and fittings are OLD, they are certainly not 'tired' or 'faded'. Don't stay here if you expect hot water at the turn of a tap (it takes 15 mins to heat up). We found ourselves upgraded to a maharajah suite which was huge, with an enormous L-shaped balcony and an extra-large bed made from two large singles put together. Despite its size it was spotlessly clean. The staff team are welcoming, smiling and eager to please. We had two minor niggles - we did not have a working fridge until the third time of asking, and our room key cards had to be re-coded several times. There is an adequate if minimal gym/fitness room and a small, clean pool to cool down in the hot afternoons, and just enough loungers. Dinner at the courtyard restaurant was varied, tasty and reasonably priced, but there are so many multi-cuisine restaurants in Mysore that you can easily dine more cheaply if you need to. Breakfast was most often a good range but it was a little inconsistent, except for the pastries which were uniformly dry and lacking in taste or texture."

"Excellent staff although the front desk staff could be a little more friendly. The security staff, the doormen, the restaurant staff, the in room dining staff and the housekeeping staff were all very friendly."
