Hotels near Jamia Masjid Udupi, Udupi

The rooms were pristine clean, clean bed linen and towels. Plenty of hot water. Tea/ coffee kettle in room. Excellent service both at reception and restaurant . Staff Benedict/ Aroop went the extra mile with their service and so did the young restaurant Manager. The location is also superb. Only issue was that due to heavy rains the street was flooded and so was their basement car park. Also wish mid range hotels in India had shower cubicles. The whole bathroom is wet after a shower!

Kediyoor is amongst the oldest and most conveniently located 3 star accomodation option when staying in udupi. It is right next to Udupi bus depot and walking distance to Shri Krishna mutt , City Center mall etc. Entire Udipi shopping areas can be traversed on foot and manipal is also about only 4 kms away. The Hotel has a veg and non veg restaurant below besides a pizza joint and also a bakery/ confectionery store below. Food served in the restaurants is of superb quality and taste although may be a tad more expensive than the joints nearby. We stayed in a super deluxe room with a Jhula and the rooms was quite spacious and clean. Only thing the corridors are quite dark and not well lit. The room service was prompt and courteous. Only thing to be noted is this is a slightly older 3 Star property - so if you keep that in mind in terms of expectations- one is unlikely to be responded.

The hotel staff were very helpful, the location of the hotel is perfece and the parking space is very nice. However, The following things can be improved in the hotel. 1. Providing water bottle - Half litre water bottles ( non branded, or may be I will call it locally branded ) were provided. This can be replaced with a one litre branded water bottles so that as a guest I am very comfortable with the brand that I am using. 2. The AC in the room was having a little smell, I believe it is due to the AC machine which is old enough now for replacement, this can be fixed to make the guest feel more relaxed at the room 3. Since the booking was done, breakfast was complimentary, However, when we visited the breakfast counter, the ambience looked as if the breakfast was more of a obligatory event for the hotel. Choice of food was very less and also the quality of Dosa items especially were pathetic, the sourness in the dosa batter was evident in the smell of the food. Even though this was informed, at the counter itself, I did not get any response which made me feel that as a guest I am not being treated properly.

Ok let me list down the pros first: 1. Rooms: the rooms are SPACIOUS. We booked an executive room and it had some space..the best part was the ample space given near the panoramic windows to sit down. 2. Amenities: it had all the amenities like coffee maker etc. though plug points are mostly away from the bed which is a nuisance. 3. Service: was ok. People seemed less but they were prompt. 4. Food: well they dont seem to have their own kitchen and probably order from outside. You can order from swiggy though. However we ordered in evening and the food was quite delicious and not expensive. 5. Location: the hotel in on main udupi manipal road and very close to MIT(1.5 kms). Nearby there is INOx and a mall with a few shops. Cons: 1. Location: yes even though close to town getting auto is a nightmare. Unless you have your own vehicle it is a headache. 2. Early checkin: we came at 6 am in the morning and though we had requested for early checkin we were charged 1000 extra. This could have been communicated by hotel earlier but they did not. 3. Upkeep: though the hotel room was good a few things needed maintenance. Like the shower lever was not working properly. There was no place to keep soap in shower and earlier one was broken. There was no AC in the lobby/reception and the poor receptionist was sweating. Altogether a decent place to stay if you have your own vehicle.

We stayed in this resort for three nights from 24th to 27th Dec in Premium Room number 516 on 4th floor. The size of room was quite spacious and big. The room was clean. The bathroom size was also quite spacious and clean. As a bonus, it also had bath tub:-). All the staff including housekeeping, restaurant and front desk were very helpful, friendly and providing very prompt service. Buffet breakfast was of good quality and taste ***** with wide variety. However, the breakfast was served on 1st floor which was just a plain hall having plastic tables and chairs. Location of this resort was good as it meant that we were out of hustle-n-bustle of Udupi city. The distance of this resort from the nearest beach was just 15 minutes walk. The interior of the room and the hotel was dated. The rooms need painting. The furniture in the room such as wardrobe, cupboard etc needs polishing. The lobby in the reception area also had many patches of leakages and faded painting. Overall, this resort is in need of immediate refurbishing. They had provided Kettle and coffee mugs. But there was no tea bags/coffee/sugar sachets. I asked for the same to the reception but they said they can't provide the same. I also requested for hand towel, for which I got the same response from reception. Finally, since we stayed here during Christmas season, the price being charged was 2.5 times of normal rates. The price didn't justify the points I mentioned above. Unfortunately, for me it didn't turn out to be value for money.

The biggest strength of this beautiful property is its strategic location. The infinity pool overlooking the lagoon is a view to die for. Surrounded by lush greenery this is a great property to stay. We are a couple with 2 kids aged 7 & 3 and had a lovely stay at the property. We stayed in the Deluxe rooms - the ones alloted to us were spacious but slightly dated. There were a few more on the ground floor that were relatively new. The landscape is fairly maintained, the view in the night is lovely. The breakfast spread is decent, mix of local and western options. We ate the food in the resort hotel on the first day and food was decent. They try to make food to your specification if you ask. Staff is courteous and always smiling. Special mention to Aldrin at the front desk who went the extra mile to help us find a rental car when we couldnt get one - if not for him, our travel would have been pretty challenging as the property is a good 13 km away from Udupi - pretty remote and you cant get out easily from there without a vehicle. Although a few guests who stayed mentioned that the resort staff would help them with a rickshaw. The room lacked some basic amenities for the price offered like complementary toiletries, a hair dryer, a safety locker, etc. The pool is lovely and you cant get enough of the view from the pool. The kids loved the play area and the books stocked up there. There are a good number of fantastic sightseeing spots - Hoode beach which is just a lil over 1 km. Delta point/Bengre beach where river Suvarna meets the Arabian sea is an absolutely fantastic spot to view sunrise/sunset or just soak yourself in the beach. Kemmannu Hanging bridge and the water activities around that place is another great attraction for both kids and adults. We also went to see the Kaup beach and lighthouse in the evening when they allow you to go up the lighthouse. The best part was taking the route ***** the beach where you can drive through quite villages with backwaters to the left and the beach right next to you - BLISS! Overall a good stay with some minor upgrades needed to make this one of the sought after properties in this area.
