    Reviews Summary

    Powered by Myra.AI

    This property is ideally located just a short walk from the East entrance of the Chidambaram Nataraja Temple, making it super convenient for temple-goers. While many guests noted the cleanliness of the rooms, some pointed out that they are quite small and could use better maintenance, especially regarding bathrooms. The lack of a restaurant and parking options were frequent concerns, but the friendly staff and nearby food choices are appreciated.

    Even when they had enough rooms, they charged us 500/- extra for early check in. The washroom was horrible. The maintenance was horrible. The washroom stinks. And when we asked for an extra bedsheet, they gave us one with a hole in it. The staff were kind of rude. Not all of them, but a few of them were.

    Hygiene not up to the mark - Not able to

    harshvardhan k.solo

    property looks good by outside however it was terrible experience. As there was issue with bed and Matraisss as I experienced itching over the body and not able to sleep at night. additionally when i checkin in afternoon i experienced same and i complained with hotel manager but he didn't took it seriously and only changed bedsheet cover, which not solved problem. Same problem appeared in night and i woke up at 2.00 am morning due to Itching over the body and not able to sleep. i advised to impose strict penalty on hotel for not maintaining Hygiene.

    The hotel location is just too good if your are on pilgrimage to Chidambaram temple. The Hotel itself doesn’t serve any food but there are enough decent restaurants in close proximity. The room, toilet, bed and linen are neat and clean. Room service needs drastic improvement. On the whole definitely a good place to stay for one day/one night to visit temple.

    sundar r.family

    As our visit was purely a temple visit , the temple was just a walk away. Except this no more normal facility were available such as bed coffee as no early morning hotel services are available nearby. Drinking water was provided on the first day. 2nd day morning no water was provided. News paper not provided. More over rent is very high. When enquired at counter single room were not available was the reply. Five minutes later a single room was made available. Room service very pathetic. Better not to write more. But won't recommend to anyone

    One probably can't stay closer to any major temple than this. The lodge is right next to the doorstep of the East Tower. Great way to visit the temple for multiple darshans - day and night. I took the opportunity to attend the Ardha Jamam (late night/ last) poojai - around 9.40 - 9.45 pm for Govindaraja Perumal and 10.00 - 10.30 pm for Nataraja. I even got to join a swami porapaddu (procession), accompanied by an elephant, out of the East Gate as late as 11 pm! My top lookout of a clean toilet was well met. My only issue was that the cupboard wasn't completely cleaned before my check in. Given that I checked in only at 9 pm, there was plenty of time to do a thorough job! I also had to request for a towel. The lodge offers to have Food & Beverages fetched from the neighborhood. Since there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance, this was not a major issue for me - especially since I was travelling alone. Understandably, this close to the temple, there is no car parking available immediately near the lodge. Again, this was not an issue for me since I had taken the (Thiruchendur bound) afternoon train from Chennai. Overall, quite happy I chose to stay at Arudhra Residency this trip.

    Very nice place to stay. It is located just to Chidambaram Natarajar temple. Not a 3 Star hotel, but it’s clean, spacious and comfortable. Good restaurants are next to this building.
