Lilac Hotel Guruvayur

Memorable awesome stay

Pros: Very clean premises, extremely polite staff, great food, proximity to Sri Krishna temple.

A jewel in a Dessert !

Pros: This is one of the newer hotels in this quaint little city. Guruvayoor has come a long way in hotels ever since my first visit in December 1973 where they were hardly any 1 star hotels around. The location, ambience very good. Rooms were comfortable, air conditioning good, sound proofing well done. Food at the veg only restaurant suited our appetite. Great to have warm water available at 4am in the morning.

Cons: A floor mat in the bathroom is missing. It is rather slippery and elders do need to be careful.

Excellent spot for bed and breakfast which is always recommended with pilgrimage 🙏🏻

Pros: Clean and comfortable bed, staff were very friendly and professional. The highlight was the buffet breakfast , which was delicious and excellent value for money.

Cons: Request for interconnected rooms, which the hotel contacted me on the day of arrival to let me know it is not available as I have chosen two rooms which were in different categories. I then asked them to make it to same category, so I can get interconnected rooms, unfortunately they didn’t have similar interconnected rooms. At least they managed to give us rooms close by, which is appreciated.

Lovely place to stay to visit Guruvayur temple

Pros: This hotel has maintained its standards since it opened and they have very friendly and helpful staff. Good food.

Very clean rooms, very near to temple.

Pros: Clean rooms, walkable distance to the temple. It is very near to south entrance of the temple. Room service was very good.

Cons: The live counter at the breakfast buffet in the morning was very slow. There was no one at the counter to take our dosa order. After waiting for 5 minutes, someone took the order but reluctantly gave a half cooked dosa. The person in the live counter was absolutely uninterested to serve us. He just vanishes from there so we don’t question him. We went at 7:30 am and only 4 of them were in the dining room.

Pros: What a pleasure. From absolutely clean bathrooms to crisp bedlinen to the staff at the hotel, everything is what all other budget hotels should aspire to be. It exceeded our expectations and tells us that with a little bit of thought to building the rooms and bathrooms to training the staff, you can deliver absolute value for money. Kudos to the owners/management for an excellent property. The rooms are better than what the photos say. A very welcome change were we regularly see the photos look far better than the actual rooms. All the very best to the management and hope your chain expands to provide travelers what they are looking for

Cons: Everything was excellent.

Pros: The accommodation was well furnished, stylish and comfortable. The staff were friendly and efficient. The restaurant was also very good. We had booked with breakfast included and we had dinner as well- both meals were excellent.

Exceptional place to Stay. Clean Rooms and Close to Guruvayur Temple

Pros: Spacious and Clean Rooms,Close to Guruvayur Temple,

Cons: Food at the restaurant is not that great, even the breakfast spread is just OK. The menu has very few varieties and the names of dishes do not do justice to the ones actually served for example I ordered Methi Masala expecting it to be a dish of Methi Saag, what I got was mixed veg curry with lots of kasuri methi in it. There are good restaurants towards the west nada that have greater variety and awesome food at far lesser bargains.

Pros: Currently the cleanest hotel in the area and very professional service

Cons: Property still under construction and no rest area for personal driver

Good place in Guruvayur

Pros: Very good place to stay in guruvayur with excellent food service
