Very ideal location - very close to Brihdeeshwara temple, the palace, the main market, restaurants, bus stand and the places of veena making, tanjore painting making, bronze artefacts making and doll making. The breakfast was full variety of local, ethnic- fresh and tasted excellent- very delicious. And so were other meals too. Room Service was prompt. The room, linen, bathroom were very clean

No tourist information was available. They could, in no way, help in recommending the tourist places or deciding the itinerary for new tourists like us. Driver's accomodation was pathetic. That wasn't improved despite our request. The driver had to sleep in the car in sweltering heat. The tea bags provided in the rooms were without outer jacket, giving rise to health safety concerns.

Lovely stay at Hotel Gnanam. Room was at the back of the Hotel so nice and quiet and comfortable if a little dated. They are currently renovating the rooms so that will change soon. Excellent location so we could walk to both the palace and the Big Temple. Staff were all very pleasant. Big thank you to the restaurant staff where we enjoyed some great vegetarian meals and some lovely conversations. Also thanks to the reception staff for organising a day trip to the Kumbakonam and our onward travel to Puducherry.

Excellent location near to the big temple but still quiet at night (road noise during the day). The staff were extremely helpful and arranged me a tourist car for a day at short notice. The room was large and well appointed including with kettle and tea/coffee and hot water in the shower. Newspaper delivered every morning. The breakfast was excellent with a large selection of Indian dishes, fruit, cereal and toast. The restaurant was good and I ate there for lunch also and it had very nice south indian thali. Overall this is an excellent mid range business type hotel frequented by families and tourists that offers great value for money.

Nothing. Rooms are a little noisy due to the road outside but it was quiet at night.

The rooms are very spacious, Right across the main Bus station and the Railway station Tanjavur. The Brihadeshwara temple is walking distance(~ 1,5km). The oldest restaurant is also walking distance away- It s prime location. Food is amazing, the breakfast with the local dishes and the taste of vegetables is just spot on.

Just the prices are a little expensive, Room rents are understandable, but the food and the amenity price could be reduced

- The room with king-sized bed looks very royal, big, and clean, totally worth the price. - bed was very comfortable - location is very nice, right in the city , near to big temple

- nothing much. Just a suggestion that the tiny bottles of shampoo and soap can be replaced with a big refill bottle for each room as it’s more environmental friendly. Also, the small bottle is not enough for 2 people.

great spread for breakfast. Good service. Morning newspaper delivered to the room was an unexpected bonus! Great location. Very close to the bus stand and the Big temple. The staff were very courteous. There was a locker in the room for keeping the valuables. There was also a mini fridge. A pretty spacious room. High class hotel.

Bathroom was a bit smelly. Smell was coming from the ventilator window. Shower cap box was there but there was no shower cap!

We only stayed in Thanjavur for one night but staying here provided a great base from which to explore some of the key attractions, including the Brihadisvara Temple. The staff were kind and attentive and we really appreciated their help arranging a taxi to our next destination. The on-site restaurant serves delicious food at fair prices (we particualrly enjoyed the breakfast and the vegetarian banana leaf lunch).

Comfortable and very clean. Generous breakfast - both Indian and European... chocolate cereal and cold milk were a surprise treat! Staff are very helpful. Room service is a nice surprise, and food is good quality, especially chicken Tikka. It is a nice place to retreat from the busy streets.

Great service from the team. Breakfast buffet is very nice. Location is perfect for visiting the palace and the unesco world heritage temple. Hotel is also in a historic building that used to be a cinema. One of my best stays during my one month long trip in India.

For me everything was fine, but my partner would have liked more sweet options for breakfast.

Comfortable spacious room. Ours was at the back so we didn’t have a problem with road noise. Easy quick autorickshaw ride to the Big Temple (80-100 rupees).

WiFi access was hard at times. They didn’t give us the log-in and password info so we had to down to the desk to have them re-enter the information.
