Well, I should specify in the begging that I haven't stayed here even once. But I have tried to stay here twice, failed miserably in both the occasions. When I went there first time we were returning from our chikmagalur trip (way back in 2010). We were really tired and wanted to stop and decided to travel next day. This... More

Visited shimoga recently and checked into this hotel. Good location,decently maintained premises. Bit overpriced for the amenities provided. The hotel must have seen some good days in the past. roomservice was good but the linens provided were old and dirty specifically the towels.Provided with better quality towels after it was requested.Overall an average hotel.

Hey ppl....i visited shimoga for a 2 day trip and had to stay here. The hotel is old but badly maintained. I dint find it clean. Toilets are dirty. Shabby place. It has a bar attached. There were ppl drinking in their rooms keeping the door open. No 1 to complain. Cleanliness is an issue here. Please avoid.

The first choice of any tourist to Shimoga in Karnataka for a good stay is the Hotel Jewel Rock. Situated in the heart of the town, it offers traditional delicacies of Malnad area. Staff are good and hospitable. Rooms are clean and neat. One would really get good value for money.

The Hotel is in close proximity from Shimoga main bus stand and kind of nice budget hotel. I took A/C deluxe double room. Maintenance is not so good and the hotel looks little shabby. It has good restaurant attached to it. Overall nice stay if you don't want to spend much in small town.

I stayed here during August/September 2011. Reservation was through telephone and it went smoothly. I had called them quite a few times to ask for directions and they didn't seem irritated with that :-) What I liked:- 1) Parking space: There is enough space available for parking inside the hotel compund. 2) Rent is VFM: I paid ~Rs.600 for one...
