Hotel Himalayaa

Small but decent rooms. The staff are very courteous and helpful. The staff are the biggest plus for this property. Food is good. Buffet dinner at Rs. 399 is value for money.

Covered Car park is not available. About 4 small cars can be parked at the end of a narrow drive way.

Property is not near the temple..

Good place to stay which is located nearby bus station and even can start girivalam from hotel. About 2km distance to Tiruvannamalai temple. Nice and decent south indian breakfast. Fast check in/out and it's important that reasonable charges in room dining. Their restaurant chef very helpful who willing to take our last order when we to rush for dinner due to late darshan.

This is the best hotel to stay in when you visit Tiruvannamalai! The reception staff are very attentive and helped my group from Australia with every request.

The rooms are very clean and comfortable and the food is very good in the restaurant. Mr Rasool and his team could not do more for us. It really is a welcome oasis from the chaos of this holy city.

Huge thank you to all the staff, we will be back next year!

Spacious well furnished rooms with lovely view of Annamalai. Just 4 km from the Temple. Parking available. The best part of the hotel was its staff who were very courteous and willing to attend to you in a jiffy. Food was excellent especially the lavish complimentary breakfast and also the north indian cuisine. Overall a pleasant stay.

If you don't find any other hotels in Tiruvannamalai, have this as last option.

1. Rooms : Good and spacious room
2. Room service: Request something, wait for hours together ending up not getting anything. Had this experience twice.
3. Car parking: Good
4. Breakfast: No coordination between front desk and hotel staffs. Rude hotel staff.
5. Accessibility: Near to Esanya Lingam.
6. Lifts: Yes

The room was clean but the toilet facility needs to be more cleaner. A bucket will be handy for the senior citizens.

room space too small when we book more than 360sqft my bedroom is 240sqft in my house , compare to my bedroom is too small but when we book your people also show in 360sqft.

Staff were very courteous and Food was good and homely

Good , enjoyed stay and food too

Himalaya is a well maintained, neat and clean comfortable Hotel in Tiruvannamalai . Restaurant food ( veg) is very tasty and reasonably priced too.

Clean and well kept room. Fresh smell, Calm, Comfortable (Bath & Bed). Nice Lifts and corridors! Good Car-Park. Did not use any food & drinks. Expensive for the town!
Always book directly with the Hotel and check what you booking is given.
Beware of catch in the online rebates. Remember - there is no free lunch, rebates remove or twist the booking!

For the price - room is nothing great.
Bathroom is well designed, but not shining ( again for the price you pay ).
I am saying well designed, because the shower area is well enclosed with glass. When one person takes bath, it will not splash water on the commode or make the bathroom wet. Although a dry bathroom, it is not very clean and shining. Just above average.

Commode is placed very high.

We took premium room - very spacious. You can put a third bed and there will still be enough space to walk or move around.
Beautiful view of Mountain from hotel room.

Food - Garlic party.
Everything has garlic. Someone should educate them about this being a temple town and how nice it will be to offer sattvic food - without garlic and onion.
Even vada has garlic.
Chutney has garlic.

I think their main ingrediant is garlic, everything else comes after it.
Avoid the restaurant if possible.

We stayed for a night - for a single night, this is an ok place.
Not a sooper clean place for the price you pay, but just okay.
They should consider reducing the price for offering such just above average rooms.

We go to Tiruvannamalai for quiet ambience. This place does not provide that based on my experience. Lobby was noisy till 11pm. Rooms could not be locked from inside (hotel staff can enter with masterkey anytime). No safety latch or chain lock. Restroom did not have air circulation or exhaust (cieling) vent. Was stinking. Parking is cramped and hence had to park in adjacent land. No way to wash your car in that land as there were no taps.

Checked in to this hotel on 10th November 2019. Nice ambience. Car park available. A good vegetarian restaurant. Nice rooms. Clean maintenance. This hotel gains 4 stars for the excellent service provided by the entire staff. Disabled friendly entry. Overall a good stay.

Hopeless hotel. Don't get fooled by the wonderful photos on the website! far cry from actual. Booked 2 rooms for 2 days, costing over £200. One of the rooms was sticking of urine that one of our group members vomitted! Argued and got the rooms changed. We didn't want to stay there for the second night due to the condition of the hotel and they wouldn't give a refund! But it was better to lose over £100 than actually stay there! Wouldn't recommend this place. Am surprised that it has got good reviews. I wouldn't trust them.

the hotel was just average. Food was adequate. Not very clean towels. Bed lumpy. The location is good to see the temple. Reception staff need to learn how to deal with foreign guests including Indians from abroad.

We didn’t stay at hotel Himalayaa but stopped here for lunch. We were on a South Indian tour & have come all the way from Australia. We were nearly given up our hopes in finding good vegetarian food with actual vegetables in it😏 Thanks to our driver Moorthy from SVT holidays who recommended this place. We were blown away by the hearty vegetarian thali we had. It was so good & had a good variety of vegetarian curries. The chef was around checking the food & talking with the customers. Wish I told him how good the food was. It was the best South Indian meal I had during my stay in India. The staff were very prompt & the portion size was very appropriate. Thank you for the delicious meal :)

We stayed in Hotel Himalaya for a day (Jun 10-11 '2019) as we visited this holy town to seek the blessings of Lord Siva. We had blocked two rooms as we were a family of 4 adults.The reception was accommodative to allot us adjacent rooms which made our life easy. This hotel has a fantastic vegetarian restaurant and the food quality was very good. Our rooms were quite clean and hygienic. The rooms service was very good . In fact this property was a pleasant surprise to us in that small town . On the whole , the stay was peaceful and I would strongly recommend this property to all the visitors of Thiruvannamalai.

Nice clean hotel. Wifi is very poor at the room. NO wifi at the lobby. Nice breakfast and lunch. They serve hot puri. Nearby main road. A few shop to window shopping and near to Anand Bhawan Restaurant.

We are group of 8 family members had good stay at Hotel Himalayaa, Tiruvannamalai. The rooms are clean and spacious. AC was working fine. The front office reception staffs are polite and very helpful.
