On a road trip thru South India, we had simple expectations in a small town - simple, clean with helpful staff and possibly decent food. The Southern Star positively surprised us! The rooms were clean, good bathroom facilities, certainly of a 3 star standard, with helpful friendly efficient staff, and a simple restaurant with decent food. Good stuff and well... More

This was one of the best hotels we stayed in during a 3 month tour of India. Our room, no.109, had 2 very comfortable beds, good bathroom and excellent hot shower in its own area so you didn't get the toilet and sink area showered at the same time! Restaurant was very good - excellent buffet breakfast with south Indian... More

Nice hotel in a uninteresting town. Rooms are OK with good beds. No duvets but only blankets. Good pillows. Good, reliable wifi, also on 4.th floor. Free newspaper No hot water - only lukewarm. Unispiriing breakfast. Pre-toasted toastbread - cold and hard. Milk only moderately cold. Very loud rooms. It sounds like there is no door in the room. You... More

THe thing that really bugged me was the lack of wifi access, although they advertise it as available for free. It never worked and we ket getting assured that someone was looking into it and it would (very soon!), but the connection never did come up over the 2 nights that we were there. We carried our tablet all over... More

One of the prestigeous places in town with spacious and airconditioned rooms. Very polite staff with courtious and prompt service. Most convenient location on Bangalore-Mangalore highway in central Hassan. We had got a package which included unlimited buffet breakfast which was delicious. This was the most lovely hotel than others that we visited during our trip. However there was misalignment... More

OK it is not perfect or 5 star, but it met our requirements completely for a good quality small hotel. Small but spotlessly clean room with flat screen TV, a shower with hot water, a full complement of towels for 2, tea and coffee making equipment and believe it or not duvets and not blankets on a bed not made...

Hotel Southern Star is a fine place to stay for a couple of days while visiting the temples near Hassan. It is clean and comfortable. The staff were helpful and the restaurant food and service were good. Hassan city is not an inspiring place so don't linger too long!

India travel itineraries at times leave tourists with a need to overnight in a city which offers nothing more than the convenience to future sightseeing locations. Hassan and the Southern Star Hotel fills that need. This growing city in the center of the southern state of Karnataka, is a logistical staging point for tourists arriving from Shravanabelagola and moving on... More

Like most other visitors we used Hassan as a base to visit the wonderfull Hoysala temples at Belur and Halebid. In retrospect we should have used the excellent state tourist board hotel at Belur - half the price and immaculate. The rooms were clean and good and the bathrooms clean but tatty. Food and service were average but un-inspiring. The... More
