We truly felt at home during our stay at Sivan Paadhan Nilayam, and we liked it so much that we extended our stay. The room is simple but has everything you need: a small kitchen where you can cook your own meals, hot water, a wardrobe, filtered drinking water, a desk, and a large terrace where you can relax and enjoy the sounds of nature. The place is very clean, honestly one of the cleanest places I’ve stayed at in India, and the host is extremely friendly and supportive at all times. I highly recommend this stay.

Our stay at "Royal Eden Mahal" truly lived up to its name. From the moment we booked, everything felt smooth, warm, and genuinely royal. The host stayed in touch throughout, patiently answering every query over calls and WhatsApp and sharing clear directions. The photos matched the villa perfectly — neat, elegant, and welcoming both outside and inside. Located in a peaceful residential area of Velachery, the 4BHK villa had a calm, homely ambience. Check-in was handled by Mr. Kumaravel, whose kindness and professionalism stood out right away. I had planned a surprise birthday for my husband, and this is where Royal Eden Mahal made our experience unforgettable. The host and the caretaker helped me plan everything with so much patience that I felt completely supported. They received my couriered gifts in advance and decorated the mini-theatre beautifully for a minimal cost. At midnight, when I took my husband in to play a special video, the caretaker stayed awake till 1 AM to make sure the celebration went perfectly. Our allotted room was spacious with two double beds, spotless linens, and a clean, well-maintained bathroom. Despite other rooms being occupied, the entire villa was quiet and private. We had access to parking, a common kitchen, fridge, gym, and terrace. Checkout was smooth even though we left early morning. Royal Eden Mahal has now become our go-to place for future get-togethers. With reasonable pricing and hospitality that truly feels royal, this place is a gem I would wholeheartedly recommend.

Perfect location just a few minutes from Arunachala Temple. The owner is super friendly and accommodating (thank you!). I stayed in the Superior Queen Room, which was quiet and comfortable. The view of Arunachala Mountain from the guest house is amazing. Everything was clean, and the AC worked well. There are lots of restaurants nearby. I'll definitely stay here again when I'm in Tiruvannamalai.

Fantastic accommodation with great staff. Excellent breakfast even doing something extra for my wife's dietary needs. Bit out of town but simple to use auto rickshaws to & from. Beautiful sunsets, quiet location. Your host is well aware of guest's requirements based on his work in international travel.

The guest house is too good. They have added some new decor and amenities which is not in the pictures and it amped up the space even more. This is more like a home stay set up so the place was very warm and comfortable as I personally wanted to avoid crowd and this served the purpose. The host was very helpful and made our stay comfortable to the T. The location is surrounded with lush green and serene views . Highly recommend.

Our host, Mani, was superb! He was so welcoming, kind and generous with his time and helped to organise taxis for us. The area was spacious and we felt very comfortable. We would recommend staying here. It was a nice quiet and safe area, with only the sounds of wildlife at night-time.
