Anantharaa Hotel

Best hotel near temple.

Business traveler • India • Apr 2026

I had a comfortable and pleasant stay at this hotel. The location is quite convenient, especially for those visiting the Thiruvannamalai temple, as it is within very close proximity. They have no restaurant with the hotel. Hence room services are not available. However, good vegetarian restaurants available nearby. The room was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate three persons, and it was well-maintained. The staff were very cordial, polite, and always ready to assist, which added to the overall positive experience.One point to note is regarding parking. There is no parking facility available directly in front of the hotel, and I’m not sure about their dedicated parking arrangements. Since I used hired cabs, it wasn’t an issue for me, but those traveling with their own vehicle may want to check this in advance.Overall, a good stay with great hospitality and a convenient location.

Extremely poor quality and very poor service. Rooms are quite shabby, old and less maintained

I recently stayed at Hotel Anantharaa during my visit to Tiruvannamalai, and overall, it was a pleasant and supportive experience—especially considering my tight schedule and physically demanding temple visit.Location:The hotel is conveniently located with good access to the Arunachaleswarar Temple and main roads, making it easy for pilgrims and travelers to commute.Rooms & Cleanliness:The rooms were clean, well-maintained, and comfortable for a short stay. Basic amenities were available, and the environment felt calm and suitable for rest after a long day.Service & Hospitality:What stood out the most was the staff’s helpful and understanding nature. Even after checkout time (12 noon), they were kind enough to extend my stay until 2 PM, which really helped me rest after completing Girivalam. Their support during this time made a big difference in my overall experience.Facilities:The hotel offers essential facilities and a decent lobby area where guests can sit and relax. Hotel provides everything needed for a comfortable and peaceful stay.Overall Experience:After a physically exhausting spiritual journey, having a place where I could rest comfortably and receive considerate support was invaluable. Hotel Anantharaa served that purpose well.
