Hotel berhampiran thoppur Kamala vinayagar& suriya, Vellore

One of the hidden secrets in Vellore to get the accommodation lies with Darling Residency. Don’t get fooled by the lack of huge entrance and foyer. The rooms are fairly large sized with king size bed, working table and a chair and very nice bath room. All the amenities are standard and I had no issues to address. Being a frequent traveler to various places both in India and abroad, I can safely say that I was very much comfortable. I also enjoyed sumptuous and tasty food in the attached vegetarian restaurant. Last but not least is that the employees ( from front desk to room service) are extremely courteous and helpful. I will definitely visit next time.

Stayed in this hotel with family for one night. Access to the hotal and external facade are good. It has enough parking space. The rooms are decent. However it offers poor room service. Probably they are under staffed and hence least bothered to serve you in the room. Tea was served after half an hour. For dinner again no sign of food after half an hour of placing the order. Reminded them. No joy. Finally after agonising wait of 45 mins called up again and canceled the order. Went across the road to another restaurant and got the food parcel. It also lacks in basic hospitality processes. Cleanliness of wash room was an issue with marks /spots on tiles adjacent to commode. Worst of all no soap dish in shower area. Nobody from the ***agement seems to have noticed or never inspected. Breakfast served in the restaurant was another horror as far as cleanliness and service goes. It is a good property but lacks in service and basic hospitality

This one is a basic hotel. It doesn't have arrangements for food. It is about 8km from vit. Small rooms and minimal facilities. Since we came during the peak time, we had to pay through the nose. This one is good for 2-2. 5k, we had to pay 10k+ for one night.

The USP of this property is it's location. Situated a few minutes walk from the CMC , it's a perfect stay for patients visiting the hospital. Booked a non a.c room over phone. Reception is spacious and exudes old world charm . The room allotted was airy and of standard size. There was no bottled water, no tea maker. intercom and TV were non functional The wash room was small, dank and the commode had seen better days. The cover came off the hinges when I tried to lift it. After much persuasion, shifted to another room. The wash room was same as the other room, but the commode cover was fixed. Went for meals at the roof top restaurant. Both food and ambience were excellent. Even if someone stays elsewhere, must try their food. And the buffet breakfast was also up to the mark. The management should take note of points mentioned here, so that a guest's stay in this property is comfortable.

We stayed at this hotel for a night in Feb 2024, essentially as a stopover, in our long road trip. We chose this property, based on available reviews. However, our choice proved to be a very bad one. I would normally like to start any review with positive and desirable aspects. However, I really struggle to recall anything positive about this hotel, except maybe the decent South Indian breakfast. The hotel is located in a very very crowded noisy area. One would struggle to even briefly park in front of the hotel, to alight. The underground car parking area (which is connected to hotel lobby through a lift) has a very muddy, extremely dusty and uneven floor and is worse than a badly maintained horse stable. We were given a room in the Ground Floor. Barely two hours after we checked in (of course, after providing all our identity credentials) say around 6pm, some stranger knocks at our door and demands the details of the occupants of the room. We asked the intruder to get lost and later complained about this with the management. The GM subsequently tried to justify saying that the person was collecting occupancy report. This is plain horrible and totally unacceptable and I have never come across this in any decent hotel. We paid over Rs. 4000 as room rent for a night stay. And this is sheer waste of money! The linen provided had a brown tinge. The split air conditioner was spewing water droplets through the night and we were not told about the so called remote-controlled fan. The back of the hotel is a deserted area, infested with undesirable people who were making loud noises throughout the hotel. The hotel lobby is nothing to write about and so is the quality of the rooms. The maintenance of the room leaves a lot to be desired. In short, this is a hotel where I will never venture to stay again. I really regret writing a not so positive review about any hotel. But then the facts and circumstances have to be shared, without being coloured!!

The location of this hotel is the best part. The rooms are spacious, ac works good, bathroom neat and clean, but the hotel doesn't serve food. It's got good restaurants like anatham, darling bakery around the corner and coffee shops surrounding the hotel. The parking is right opposite the hotel.

Normally i used to stay in itc hotels only for many years wherever i go. I would feel more comfortable in itc hotels. This time while in fortune park vellore, i had little bitter experience of delayed serving food at sky dinner. It might be due to i ordered food which was not readily available. But the staff could have told us about expected late sunce we came to have dinner only, not to spend time. Of course, immediate action was taken after complaint. Thanks

Liked · Though the first impression from outside was doubtful, the hotel was neat and clean from inside. The counter staff was friendly and cooperative. She arranged for the wheelchair facility which I requested for my mother. We were allowed to use the wheelchair throughout our stay which was very helpful in handling my mother. The rooms were large, neat and clean. The supply of toiletries, tea coffee materials were sufficient. The toilet was clean. The rooms (101 & 103) were clean enough. The AC effect in the rooms were good. The Fridge, kettle and other facilities in the room were useful. The room service and the house keeping staff were very good. The restaurant in the Ground floor was clean and tidy. Foods served were of good quality. A parking area was attached with the hotel. Overall, it was a great and safe stay. Worth for Money. Disliked · To start with locating the hotel was difficult. We had to spend some time before finding the hotel. This was because the hotel did not have proper sign board. The sign board which was available was serving only one direction of journey (opposite to our direction of journey). Absence of alternative restaurants in the nearby locality is a drawback. You may have to rely up on the restaurant down of Swiggy etc. This could be improved further.
