Very Good

I really liked this place, the staff was very friendly anf forthcoming and food was excellent. The beach access is easy and the beach is absolutely stunning albeit wild. It’s not a 5-star hotel in the european sense but a great space if you want a bit of privacy and peace when visiting Mamallapuram.

The pool and the common area is really good. The restaurant and rooms are good but didn't feel like worth the money
This was an excellent property and we had a great time! The breakfast was top-notch, offering high-quality selections. The only issue was a leaking walk-in shower which caused water to run across the bathroom floor, near the toilet.

TERRIBLE food that we ordered for tea time.
Breakfast was good. And terribly slow service during tea time. Food is OVERPRICED. Bathrooms are in bad shape.
A lovely property stretching down to the beach with lovely gardens snd excellent facilities. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet was top quality. The swimming pool was great - though a few more loungers and parasols would be welcome at busy times. The room was spacious and comfortable.
Outdoor Pool and beach access was excellent.. room was the worst I’ve ever stayed for the price we paid. Though staff was friendly, this hotel doesn’t stay up to ITC standards. I wish if there is a path to refund part of our stay fees..
good property. can take more care of the facilities. we had twice electical issues in the room like ac not working etc. more care to be taken to such issues before guests check in.

Liked: Staff & service
We liked the size of the property. It was a shame that work was happening. The pool area needed TLC.
Do not let waste your money. They will never tell you that they have sold garden for parties and that they are loud and go on until 11 PM. Gym is very dirty. Mosquitoes everywhere. Not even orth the price. Shame that ITC is associated with it
