13. Suradeep Residency

Mahabalipuram Beach, 1.2 km from Five Rathas

"처음 이 숙박시설의 외관을 보았을 때 실망하였으나, 객실에 들어갔을 때 생각이 바뀌었다. 넓은 객실과 햇살이 드는 창문 그리고 깨끗한 침대 시트는 사용자의 마음에 들었다. 중심지에 위치하고 있으며, 모든 관광지와 식당, 해변 등은 도보로 이동이 가능하다. 직원들은 친절하였으며, 여행중 간단한 감기에 걸렸던 사용자를 위해 병원에서 빠르게 치료 받을 수 있도록 도와주었다. 다음에 또 방문을 한다면 이 호텔을 이요할 것이다."

"A fantastic location with excellent facilities. The hospitality was warm, the food brilliant, and we couldn’t fault a thing. Highly recommend"

Four Points by Sheraton Mahabalipuram Resort & Convention Center

8/10 Good

"It's a solid four star but a long way from a five star. Very comfortable bed, but old AC unit took hours to cool the room and had to use ceiling fan for half the night on very high speed. While very clean, it's worn in places, paint peeling, dated / worn fittings etc. Food was good, had buffet at evening. If you want a cheaper option than the five stars on ECR, it's good and seems suitable for children, with very shallow pool (I prefer deeper as I like to swim properly). and other games areas. It's a bit noisy as right next to very busy junction. But staff were very helpful and pool staff very friendly. It's not like in the photos, that is for sure!! Much more dated."
