Hotels to check out in Thanjavur, Chidambaram

If you plan to be at the Natyanjali fests make sure you book a hotel room now.
Most places are on the pilgrim circuit map and getting a room - especially on weekends and at festival time ) is not all that easy.

Thanjavur has a variety of hotels - Hotel Gnanam near the city bus stad is good but booked most times. Oriental looks tired and dull. A great place in Abi's Inn on the Pudukkottai Road, near the Auxilium School. Built in the apartments style, it has a/c and non a/c rooms starting at Rs.1000/ Rs.1200 for a single person with free breakfast offered.

Chidambaram has limited offers. The Arudra Hotel ( 04144-221930 ) is just outside the eastern gopuram and a quiet, well maintained place which has now been renovated, adding more rooms - we like this place. 


Hotel Akshaya ( 04144-220191) is closeby - 5 minutes from the temple.  Hotel Sharadaram ( 04144 221336 ) is the popular destination and is close to the bus stand and rail station.
