We were there on April 19th, checked in early AM and out in the evening. The hotel is very near the railway station and we had two rooms for 5 adults and a toddler. If you are not already aware, it's quite hot already in Kumbakonam (it gets hotter next month), so we were very happy with the AC even... More

I had booked 3 rooms of standard a/c in raya's annexe. The rooms were fantastic. I have not seen any hotel in south India having a ceiling fan in the toilet. It's actually that big. Very well planned rooms well worth every rupee spent. But the customer service is poor. The staff seem very helpful and eager to please but... More

We have stayed in the hotel second time during March 12 to 13th 2012. A a eery good reception. The room services personal behave highly decent and attend immediately fulfil our requirement. I never seen such a behavior, I am almost visited the entire south India. The Rays Hotel top in this regards. I really enjoy the stay . More

We had booked 10 rooms for 1045 rs but ended up paying 1295rs, when we questioned the hotel staff behaved us rudely and spoke in a very bad way, they behaved like hooligans. Even though with all the written confirmation about the cost there was absolutely no respect to that. More

Based on our positive experience during our last visit to Kumbakonam in 2008, we blindly went ahead with booking a room at Raya's. We skipped the Annexe as room rates were slightly higher, moreover the last time we had stayed in the main wing and the rooms had been decent enough. But this time was a disappointment. The rooms in... More

We stayed for one day at the Elite room in Annexe 1 to attend a marriage. Clean, good sized furnished room with modern look. Good service and would recommend this place for short comfortable stay. They also make arrangements for taxi service and we went to Mayiladuthurai through their booking. More

The villa type room was very well done. Tariff is reasonable, unlike the villas in the tourist spots. Well designed villa gives you a feeling of home. Large parking area in the rear. I'd parked in the front parking area of the hotel which is cramped but, later got to know that the rear one was very spacious and took... More

Compared to the hotels in the city this seemed to be better in location, price and quality. The Annexe offer more newer rooms. We originally booked for Raya hotel then when asked about better services we were offered to stay in the new Annexe building from the same hotel. Very close walking distance to the Mahamaham tank and major temples... More

We stayed two nights in the standard room during Jan 6 and Jan 7, 2012. Stay was comfortable. The restaurant is across the road (pure vegetarian). Breakfast service starts at 7:30 am, a tad late for this place, considering that most guests stay here to visit the Navagraha temples in and around Kumbakonam and would like a headstart in the...
