Stayed for a night in a deluxe non A/C room. Booked the room using stayzilla.com and no problems with the reservation. The hotel is an old one and quite popular in Shimoga, infact so popular that the road on which it is located is named Jewel Rock Hotel road! Even though the hotel building and rooms are a bit old...

This must be the best budget hotel that you can find in Shimoga. I did call them up and confirmed the availability before i even travelled from Bangalore. I reached Shimoga in the early morning 3.45 AM (volvo from bangalore) and reached the Hotel in an auto (25-30/-). Though all were sleeping, they were happy to wake up and welcome... More

The room was neat. About 1-2km distance from the centre of the town though. The room service was prompt and good. Food was ok. The place has a little rustic look with ample parking. Residential surroundings. The receptionist took a thousand rupee note and a few minutes later insisted that it was only a 500 rupee note. I ended up... More

Probably one of the best hotel of Shimoga. Definitely value for money. Halted there for a night while going to Goa. Hotel is quite clean & bed is good. Very clean toilet. Cannot expect more for 850 bucks. Even the restaurant food also taste good in a fairly reasonable price. More

From outside looks beautiful n well maintained, but reality crops up when you enter the room. The rooms are not well maintained with slightly torn linen & broken bathroom fittings. The geyser in the bathroom needs to be switched on half an hour in advance to get hot water and the window ac makes a lot of noise. The TV... More
