Hotel berhampiran Mangalore Central, Mangalore

Royal Plaza Suites, foremost, has a super location that is an arms throw away from major tourist sites and Malls in Mangalore city. Coupled with that, the spank cleanliness of the room, complete with all amenities like covered car parking, ironing board, fridge, kettle, free sauna, powerful AC right down to shoe shine was a real deal clincher, more so, considering it was reasonably priced. The staff were exceptionally courteous and, specifically, the security guards who were always available even at odd hours to guide you, into and out of the parking slot. For a small consideration, the security guard will even wash your dusty car. The complimentary breakfast buffet was stupendous. The room service from the vegetarian restaurant, Coconut Grove or the other non-veg restaurant, whose name escapes me at the moment, was quick and the food tasty. All in all, i wouldn't in the least bit hesitate to recommend this hotel enough to travelers. I am sure I will revisit it whenever i am back in Mangalore again Congratulations to the Management and Staff!! Please keep maintaining your high standards.

I had the pleasure of visiting Mangalore on the 17th of October 2023, where I was greeted with a warm welcome despite my late arrival at night after a 12-hours long journey. One of the first things that captured my attention was a stunning wall-to-wall mural behind the front office desk. This remarkable artwork vividly depicted the cultural heritage of Karnataka, featuring Kola performances, Kambala races, and other local traditions that have gained recent pan-India popularity thanks to the movie ”Kantara.” It served as a captivating introduction to the exciting experiences that awaited me during my stay. Let's talk about the accommodation. The rooms were tastefully appointed and impeccably clean. I particularly appreciated the Skylight Suites, which, while lacking a balcony, featured a beautifully decorated and spacious sitting area with a skylight adjacent to the main room. This clever design made the room feel more expansive. However, it's worth mentioning that the washrooms could benefit from better ventilation. In terms of dining, the food was satisfactory, but I would suggest diversifying the menu to include more vegetarian options to cater to a wider range of preferences. Now, let me highlight the standout feature of my stay – the in-house transportation services provided by the hotel. They operated with exceptional efficiency, boasting well-maintained and spotlessly clean vehicles. The chauffeurs were not only punctual but also displayed the utmost professionalism. I must give a special commendation to Mr. Balraj, who not only ensured our smooth transport to the temples we had planned to visit but also offered valuable insights into darshan durations. His willingness to take us to additional temples during our journeys, such as the Mariamman Temple in Mangalore, Rajarajeshwari Temple in Polali, Bappanadu Parameshwari Temple in Mulki, and Uchchila Maha Lakshmi on the way to Udupi (and possibly more that I can't recall at the moment) was truly exceptional. His knowledge of cultural immersion opportunities, especially during Navratris, was remarkable, and he even introduced us to experiences like the Yakshagana performance at Kadri Manjunatheswar. As my trip had a strong focus on pilgrimage, his insights into these sacred places were invaluable. His careful and considerate approach as a driver was exemplary. Not once did he engage in rash driving, even in the challenging and treacherous forested, mountainous routes that we encountered. Furthermore, Mr. Balraj's helpful nature shone brightly throughout our journey. With my elderly parents accompanying me, his assistance was greatly appreciated. He went above and beyond to ensure their comfort and well-being, offering his support at every turn. His unwavering dedication to both our safety and enjoyment of the trip made him an indispensable part of our experience. Mr. Balraj truly embodies the spirit of excellence in service. I must express my gratitude to Mr. Nilesh Nayak, the Front Office

Extremely polite and cooperative staff. Very good hygiene is maintained. Fairly good veg restuarant (Vishwa Bhavan) is there in the ground floor and too expensive multi-cuisine restaurant in the first level (The Curry Wok). The main drawback is the cumbersome car parking facility which is in the second basement and one has to Rev the car with full throtle to reach the main road in the busiest area (Hampankatta) surpassing the foot path wherein there are herds of pedestrians putting their lives to risk. Rooms are quite brightly lit. Spacious and well laid bathrooms with 24 hours running hot water is an added advantage. This hotel is in the very heart of the city and the happening place. Mangalore Central Railway station is hardly 750 meters away. Will visit again.

Excellent service, great location, Taj hospitality & a truly charming hotel that has been the most popular 5 star facility in Mangalore for over 3 decades. The hotel has a special mural in the lobby with the signature of the architect who built the hotel that has been left untouched through two refurbishments, it is amazing! This is the best place to stay in Mangalore city.

Very average for a 4-star hotel. My flight arrived a little late so I called them in the afternoon itself and told them to hold my room with a queen bed specifically... but when I arrived they gave me a room with two single beds. As a tall person, it was very hard to sleep. They only switched me to a new room the next day when I insisted the next day. There was no bell hop when I arrived, I had to carry my own luggage to my room. Nobody to point me in the direction of the room also. Also when checking out, the doorman was missing. I had to hold the heavy luggages in one hand on the other hand hold the open the door before it closed. It was a hassle. The people in the front desk can be more friendly and smiling. Lastly, the food was quite good but some items were missing. I wanted to to order pasta but they said that all italian dishes were unavailable even though they had it on the menu. Also, they ran out of most of their food in the breakfast buffet in the morning. You have to come early otherwise most of the food will be gone. They don't have enough for every guest. Many items like chicken sausages, veg cutlets, muffins, etc., were missing. Not even one piece was there. I expect better from a 4 star hotel. It was an average experience.

The room i got was very small and had a huge bed which took up all the space in the room. There was barely any place to walk around the room or navigate. The utilities were clean and well maintained. But the hotel did not offer any room service for ordering food. We had to order through swiggy. The guests who took the adjoining room made a lot of noise while talking and kept banging the room door as they entered exited. The category of people staying in this hotel didn't meet my expectations.

Newly renovated, well furnished premium category hotel with reasonable pricing. Nice view from the hotel (highway view). Staffs are very cooperative and gentle. peaceful ambience. recommended for couples too.

I would like to take a moment to appreciate Mr. Arjun, the talented chef at Ginger. His dedication and skill in the kitchen truly stand out, and the quality of the food he prepares is exceptional. His passion for cooking is evident in every dish, and his hard work is highly commendable. Thank you, Mr. Arjun, for making every meal a delightful experience
