This hotel is a nice and clean small property in the centre of the city with excellent food and polite staff. Everything is within easy reach. The hotel is reasonably priced and the only way you can understand the meaning of the word reasonable is by going to one of the overpriced places on the beach where they rip you... More

Dear Guest, Thank you for staying with us and reviewing us in Tripadvisor. We realized that you have not done the stain purposefully, however it should have been avoided. The pack of decent detergent could not remove the stained you left behind. Both the Duvet cover and the Bed Spread were being condemned there after. In general the hotel charges... More

Hotel is strategically located near historic Pondi. Most places of attraction listed on tripadvisor are walking distance from this hotel. The hotel stay was very good. Buffet lunch and complimentary breakfast was excellent, however service provided can be improved upon.

This hotel had all the facilities of a four star hotel but felt like a three star. If you are happy with the price then go for it. There was a general feeling of grubbyness.

Stayed at Atithi with a group. The hotel provided basic, spacious accommodation for a good value. The room was sparsely furnished with simple furniture. The beds were firm but I slept fine. There is an electronic safe in the room big enough for a full sized laptop. There was a daily buffet for breakfast and dinner (not sure about lunch).... More
