Loved the location, within walking distance of all the monuments. The pool was fabulous, we had it all to ourselves, very clean with comfy sun loungers. The staff were really lovely too. Excellent value for money as we were half board and ate at the restaurant adjoining the hotel. If you're looking for something clean, central, value for money that has a lovely pool, look no further!

We did not visit Mahabalipuram as we were traveling with elderly folks and just wanted a weekend break. But since we live in Chennai, we have been to Mahabalipuram dozens of times! It is always an incredible place to visit and the ancient ruins from the Pallava dynastic times are breathtaking in their beauty and relevance to our local culture. Well worth a visit if you’re ever in the neighborhood …

GREAT place to visit, Indian heritage on display!

GREAT place to visit, Indian heritage on display! The monolithic 6-7th century rock sculptures are a treat to the eyes. The humour of the sculptor well visible in the "lice picking monkey" and the "cat doing yoga" sculptures. Plan early am start April as it is quite hot by 10.30 am. The site is open by 6am, i think. Shell museum is unique and is quite a marvel. Not to be missed. Welcome ice-cream store there.

Mahabalipuram is a nice place.

Mahabalipuram is a nice place. One should plan for at least 2 nights and 2 full days at Mahabalipuram. Visit to Shell Museum is a must and has amazing collection of Pearls, Mineral rocks and Shells from around the world. I found beach at Mahabalipuram better than Pondicherry. Crocodile Park is also amazing

The temple complex is spread out but well worth the walking! This is 10th Century granite carving at its best - I really was impressed with Arjuna's Penance. Plenty of places to eat good fish dinners and local folk were friendly and helpful.

From the moment we stepped through the door, we were looked so well after by the wonderful team at Hotel Montecarlo. The hotel is newly built so in excellent order. We had a very large room with huge bed and a full size sofa in sitting area. Food was excellent from breakfast to a la carts restaurant in the evening where I enjoyed fresh catch of the day in a tasty curry sauce. The pool is a good size and easily accessed. Quiet and convenient for Mahabalipuram, this hotel pinches above its weight - especially in terms of value for money.

The owner contacted us as we travelled from Madurai and arranged our pick up from Chennai, allowing us to check in at almost midnight with a coffee. Nothing was too much trouble for any member of the excellent friendly staff. The location IS just 2 minutes walk to beach and town facilities. This is an outstanding establishment to base from when touring the sites of Kanchipuram, Chennai or Pondicherry. So much history within walking distance in the town.
