Getting there
Somewhat walkable
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
We booked this hotel for 1 night. It's centrally located. The hotel takes good care of customer's safety before check in, the luggage is well sanitized and then moved into the room. Size of the room is adequate for 2 people, AC and non AC categories are also available. Washrooms are clean and hot water facility availability is also there. The toiletries set include tooth brush, tooth paste, soap, moisturiser and shampoo. Electric kettle, coffee sachets, milk, sugar and mineral water is provided by the hotel in room itself. Room service is good, i wanted hot water to drink at 6 am in the morning they immediately send it across. Lift is also there as its multi storeyed. This hotel has basement parking also with dedicated entry & exit points.
As a vegetarian i was delighted to dine in at their in house restaurant. The menu has various cuisines North Indian, South Indian and Continental and its worth for money. Their dining space is huge and they also serves buffet breakfast. Restaurant staff is cooperative and service is quite good.

How bored are you sitting at home? Feeling caged? Want to go on a road trip, but tight pockets?
Don't worry, here's an Amazing Place that you can stay and enjoy.
Crystal Inn, in Chikmagaluru, is one of the best budget hotels that I've been to recently. Don't worry about the safety measures, they have it all taken care of.
From the moment you enter the hotel, with the warm welcome by the team, sanitization of the luggage till taking us to the room, while maintaining social distancing, everything is taken care of.
The things that you really want to know about the hotel, here it comes: They have AC and Non-AC room options; go for the AC rooms, all of them have a view, which not only covers the mountains, but also the whole city. Washrooms are huge and clean It is a 4-storeyed building and has a lift, so no worries about losing calories while on vacation :-p It is a heaven for vegetarians, as it is a pure vegetarian restaurant, and serves amazing dishes at their Restaurant "Swadista"
The best place you can choose, over other homestays in Chikmagaluru

During my weekend gataway to Chikmagalur found a really good hotel in the heart of the town. "Crystall Inn" offers comfortable stay at a pocket friendly price.
The rooms are very neat and tidy with latest amenities. The beds were comfortable, there was ample cupboard storage and washroom's that are sparkling clean.
The hotel takes all the necessary precautions for your safety. Such as
1) Sanitizer Pedestal 2) Sanitation of Luggage 3) Sanitation of Room 4) Fresh Linen & Towels 5) Staff wearing gloves and face masks at all times
The hotel even provides travel packages for the local sight seeing at a very economical rates. This was the best part of the deal😀
Also, they have in house restaurant which serves delicious vegetarian food.
In all, chikmagalu was a memorable trip. Looking forward to visit again.
Thanks team Crystall Inn.

I had spent Rs 5500 on booking one night 31-dec in this worst hotel ( infact better to be called a lodge), I got befooled by reviews and some marketing youtube videos on this hotel. I will share my story sequentially: 1) Upon disembarking from my car, none came for taking my suitcase , their security guard and reception fellows were just watching me carry 2) I had to ask them for welcome drink at least 10 times, then they gave cheap tang juice 3) Linen were dirty, asked them to change, they told that's good only 4) They had medimix soap and not even colgate small toothpaste, some local brand was there. I had to ask for extra soap and towel for kid at least dozen times. 5) The child bed, they gave, was broken, and they told they don't have another 6) Biggest shocker in morning, when I went for breakfast that even after paying Rs 5500 per night, breakfast was not complementary. 7) Reception person was kind of insisting me to spend another Rs 500 for taking driver's accomodation. 8) TV was not working, gave up after calling them multiple times. 9) Ordered paneer sizzler, they sent me some pepper dry dish, only good thing is they took it back, but their head or whatever Jitendra told me that if I don't take it, amount will be debited from steward, just trying to make me feel bad for their mistake. 10) While checking out, again I had to take my luggage myself to car. Only good thing was I didn't book it for more nights, and saved my hard earned money.

Room not clean, bedsheets not clean, washroom not clean. Some small after turning on AC.
With AC room they provide 500ml 2 water bottles. After that they will change 30rs for another drinking water bottles.
Lot of noise from other rooms where 2-3 families were talking loudly.
Stay was not good.

Size of the room & bed was sufficient for a couple. It would be difficult to accommodate any extra bed.
The hotel has limited parking space for car, but was well managed by the hotel management.

Overall the size of the room is good but the blanket and bed were dirty. The linen was dirty, asked them to change it, they told that's good only...very bad. NO welcome drink.
No focus from Manager on making the room clean.
None came for taking my suitcase while leaving the hotel....i called 2-3 times but no response.
