Collection O Avm Castle - Hotel in Vellore - Vellore, India

Had stayed 8 years back and it was great. This hotel is conveniently located less than half an hour from VIT/CMC/Fort/Sripuram. Double bed is 2000 per night without breakfast. Good hot water from Solar. It has parking for cars. AC works great. It is close to Bangalore/Chennai Highway. It has Sarvana Bhavan hotel on first floor, Aaryaas, Vellore Kitchen and many others nearby. There is a big Colors shopping mall next door. Problems: Some rooms have toilet pipes leaking, some have bad smell, Toilet seats fall off, intercom does not work, TV doesn't have cable subscription. Sofa on each floor is worn out. Water bottles on floor are very dirty. Overall, they have to spend a little on maintenance and can be a great hotel, it used to be!!!

I booked this hotel for two days directly. The location is just opposite to bus stand and there is ample space for covered parking. The delux rooms are spacious and clean. Room service and front office will be very helpful. Hotel saravana bhavan is on the ground floor next to the entry. Safe and highly recommended

Location & Availability of rooms + front desk people behavior-- that attracts me . Value for money-- yes ... Quiet-- yes.. Downstairs , quality pure vegetarian cuisine @ saravana bhavana restaurants is additional attractions....

Pros: 1. Rooms and washrooms are really spacious 2. Humble and helpful staff. 3. Location is prime. Lots of eateries around. 4. Ample parking space available. Although the parking is not covered, suave is not a constraint. Cons: 1. Rooms are not maintained properly. Electric switches were broken, bathroom not clean upto expectation. Same with the linen and towels provided. 2. Hot water in bathroom was not functioning atleast when I was there. They arranged for a hot water bucket though. Overall not a very recommended place to stay of you are with family and need a no nonsense pleasant stay. Definitely not of it's more than a night.

Decent hotel good location, very close to New bus stand. Saravanan bhavan hotel is in the ground floor is added advantage.

The place has it's own goods like located near to the bus stand and hotels, etc. I didn't like the stay much as there were problems with the hot water in the room I stayed. Even after complaining the same no proper action was taken. When I mentioned that there was no hot 'water' coming, the incharge person says it's because of the clody siy the solar heater didn't worked. It's an old hotel done with some renovations which doesn't improve overall and look and feel, aesthetics. And also the towels they provided for use were not washed clean. There's more room to improve.

I stayed for two separate nights in Oct 15 in 4 bedded Executive Suite on different floor each time. Rooms and toilets were spacious and clean. Bed linen were fresh. Room service was prompt. In complimentary breakfast they served only South Indian food. The restaurant staff did not seem too enthusiastic in serving.The location of the hotel is a plus point. Though situated on main road, there was no disturbance from traffic inside the room. Free wifi was there but speed was very low. Overall a good bargain for the money I spent after the discount I got from Goibibo, though it might not be so for the original price

Good hotel. Just opposite to the bus stand. Room option with two double beds is a welcome move for wedding groups staying. Rooms are huge and spacious. Very close to the city Centre and is just a stone's throw away from the bus stop and the ever gracious vellore Fort. Went and stayed with a group of friends and the stay was more than comfortable. Restaurant at the first floor. Friendly staff and great hospitality proved by the constant reminders to have breakfast. We also had a problem with the Air conditioning system (we were not able to control the temperature since the receiver was fault). We called the reception at almost 12 in the night and the response was immediate. There was a person who checked it and also fixed the same very quickly. Another person brought a new remote to the room and have it to us. Overall, a very pleasant stay to remember the visit to vellore.
