Affordable Hotel(Lodge)located at the heart of the city, near to Railway station, airport. Very near to Meenakshi Amman Temple. Centrally located to other tourist spot around Madurai.
Worst service.. lost my iPhone charger from room itself. Just after vacating the room i contacted the hotel reception, there reply was no such charger in room. I am dawn sure that in my 5 days stay i never unplugged the charger from the charging point. Definitely room service department is well aware of the charger.

We booked this hotel just to refresh ourselves and luckily we didn't stay. 1) Very small room, they say can accommodate 2 adults + 1 kid But for sure it is sufficient only for one person. 2) Somewhere I read they don't allow smoking but from lift to hallways it was full of smoking smell so for sure not for family with kids to stay 3) Floors looks very untidy and dirty. Even linens were brownish 4) Only plus point its budget friendly and since we just wanted to refresh I booked the rooms.

We had booked 2 rooms for a family trip in August 2022. Here is the review bifurcated into Pros & Con: Pros: 1. Centrally located. Commuting to and from the hotel is easy. Madurai Railway station, Meenakshi Amman Temple near by. Just take an auto which you can find easily outside the hotel without waiting much. 2. Rooms are good 3. Bathrooms are clean, flush and the hand spray working condition is too good. (Giving here a plus point as most hotels lack this basic feature) 4. Staff is good and helpful 5. Worth the money you are paying for. 6. AC was working good Con: 1. Wifi speed was slow, it needs improvement

Hotel located in prime location near periyar bus stand. Walkable distance from Railway Station too. Check-In and Check-out was easy. (Booked through online, with pay @ hotel option). Got Room in 5th Floor. Single Occupancy 700/-. Non-AC (I personally felt for Solo travellers like me this is a High Price - which can be reduced). Room was quite OK. If you are young and with a young group, Meenakshi Temple is Walkable too. Buses available from Periyar bus stand to all parts of madurai. I came to madurai to visit Theni and Cumbum and had a nice trip visiting those two places. Room and Bathroom had lots of dust, but i really can't blame the hotel for this as they were Govt was renovating the Periyar bus stand. The whole area was dusty and muddy. All the near buy eatable hotels also were muddy. (Need to monitor the hotel cleanliness on my next visit) Room and Bathroom was quite good and spacious for a Solo traveller. Hot water was available in morning . Provided towel, soap and water bottle. No bedsheet was available in room, which they provided after my request. Car Parking available, though it would be difficult and jam packed if there are multiple cars and you need to take your car out. Lift facility was also available. Water provided in bottle was good and not just for name sake. Not used their room service, hence can't comment on that. Mosquitoes menace was there during my stay. Pros:- 1. Near to Periyar Bus Stand and Railway Station 2. Near by eatables available Cons:- 1. Situated in main road, hence lots of traffic noises during late night also 2. No Card payment available (Big draw back for me). Only Cash or UPI payment. 3. No Channels were coming in TV. Not even Free Channels. (I was out for most of the time hence this was not a Big Deal even though I paid 700/-) Suggestion for Management:- 1. Price can be reduced for Solo / Single Occupancies.…

A budget hotel with excellent location & quality service. Very neat & clean rooms , ideal for family stay. Front desk staff very cooperative & helpful. But restaurant not up to mark. The hotel arranges local & outstation site seeing tour along with M/s Subbu Tours & Travels , which is really horrible. We joined Kodaikanal & Rameswaram tour arranged by hotel & had very bad experience. They collect money in advance & leave the bus to driver , who simply cheats you. The drivers didn’t cover even the designated spots as per their program. The drivers also collected 50-60 rupees per head separately as guide changes but didn’t offer any service. They took us to Kodaikanal & Rameswaram town and left us in town just like that indicating the return time only. Please don’t join local & nearby tours arranged by hotel, else you will be repenting.…

Me with my wife and cousin and her husband visited madurai from 17th to 19th and stayed in HOTEL VIJAY booking 2 non AC rooms....as we have informed the staff...i remember(one mr.mani and mr.satish) abt our arrival well in advance even thou booked online, we had a courtious welcome by the staffs...rooms and bathroom were near but bed spread in one of the rooms were torn and after our complaint replaced...hot water was available between 6 and 10am..but on the day of of our chkout, it was closed without even our chking out.. For a budget hotel,for a short stay we felt we cannot get better service than this... Needles to say..the temple and other places of interest are nearby and stn and bus stand etc... I can give 3 stars and hope the hotel will improve more to give better facility to prilgrims including providing atleast mineral water with lodging built-in ro etc.…

I wish I could give a zero star. Such a rude behaviour and extremely poor hospitality management. I was travelling with my fiance on road to Kerala with one night half at Madurai. I booked this place through Goibibo and there was no policy rule putup on the page saying unmarried couples are not allowed. When we met the reception guy, he denied us to check in the room citing hotel policy on no unmarried couples allowed. Come on people this is 2019. And I've done so many road trips with my friends and never have come across such a bad hospitality. This wasn't enough for him. When we enquired about taking 2 separate rooms, as we were dead tired after travelling 10 hours. He deined even that, citing the above same excuses. It was totally unreasonable. On top of it, he proved his point by blocking all rooms so that we can't book a second room online separately. Won't they allow any bachelors at all? I was extremely furious and called the customer care. Thankfully, Goibibo was kind enough to refund me the entire amount. People at front desk please learn to interact with your guests first. Please don't visit this place if you're a bachelor !!…

Dear Guest, Thank you for sparing your valuable time to leave your feedback. Our Policy in Goibibo is given very clearly that unmarried couples are not allowed. We also came forward to cancel your booking and provide refund. Next time when you book you can opt for couple friendly hotels. When we reject your request you feel us as so rude etc. We suggest you to read hotel policy before you book rooms online. Thank you Manager
