Fantastic place to stay. Staff go above and beyond. Easy to go and explore shops. The outdoor seating area is peaceful sunset and you can hear the waves. Surrounded by palm trees and perfect for a chilled stay

Excellent stay

This is the best hotel place in this city. well maintaining all the time. We did stay and had time comfortable here. We will be planning to visiting next time also for to have wonderful experience again.

Wonderful experience

While in Havelock we needed a affordable and clean place to stay only for the night
The entire day we were exploring

Good beds, brand new ac's, clean toilets and its just 2 minutes away from the jetty

So you save money when you reach Havelock, grab a bike and head for the beaches

Decent hotel for the price

Very poor hospitality and services. Very unhygienic  environment and food quality. I suggest you to all not to opt for this dirty hotel and its management. Commentary break fast is only show but no menu only 4 bread peases and small spoon jam is served, their mess staff behave very rudely on demand of addition 2 beads

It is not a hotel, only Dharamshala/ Sarai

My tour agent cheated on me to book this horrible place ,
rooms are made up of woodply no privacy is there staff are very irresponsible,They even misbehave with customers,food available but of very low quality,i visit this place on 03/04/2018 they provide room no 103 in front of mess,lizards and coakroach were in rooms

Horrible Place

Hotel is located just 100 metres from the Havelock jetty. get down at jetty and start walking on the right lane along the coast and you will find it in 3-4mins of walk.

Pros:
Nice basic room
Good bed and Good AC
Great Location just next to the Sea
Decent breakfast
Provides assistance in two wheeler hiring
Operations oriented management approach ensures temporary issue resolution
Good housekeeping staff
Hammocks under the shade next to the Sea
Good parking area
Enough space to dry clothes
TV was working fine

Cons:
No WiFi
Intermittent issue with water supply
No room service after 7.30pm
Service oriented mindset would have helped. Things are the way they are. Indifferent Manager

Value for Money beachside hotel


We stayed at this property during Christmas holidays, 2 families with 2 children each. Let me clarify two things up front, first, this is not a beach property and second, this is not a resort. This is a insect infected children unfriendly place. The rooms are extremely old, small, and give you the feeling of staying in a dormetry. Bathroom is attached but small. The walls are made of cheap material and you can easily hear all conversations from the other room which completely compromises your privacy. 

Complementary:

Breakfast is complementary but for a vegetarian, all it includes is 4 small slices of bread and one teaspoon of cheap quality jam. You cannot ask for extra slices of bread as it seems it hurts the ego if the cook to give you a slice extra.

Running Hot Water:

What I fail to understand is, if you have the provision to provide air-conditioners in rooms, what stops you from providing a geyser? There is no hot water available, you need to order for hot water that is charged Rs20 per bucket. I believe many people have written about this already and nothing has changed, and I am sure, nothing will change in the next 20 years as well.

Power Backup:

Needless to say, no power backup full stop. 
In addition, no internet.

Children:

If you are traveling with children to this place, please do take my advice. Even if this is the only place where you get a room in Havelock, please do NOT book this place. There is not activity at this place, there were hammoks which was the only attraction for kids, but the hotel staff removed the hammocks in the evening, considering that it will rain, which did not happen.  And we had to request for an hour to have them fix just one hammock which took less than a minute. The hammock is made of a old curtain or bedsheet which is unhygienic but only option fur children to stay engaged.

The entire hotel is infested with insects and you have to be very careful with your children playing around.

There is no beach around this hotel, don't get confused with pictures. There is a boat graveyard next to the hotel where stagnant water attracts mosquitoes.

Family room:

If you take a family room, you assume that you have paid for extra bed and atleast an extra towel, but here, you only get extra bed, there is no extra towel or provision for extra towel or breakfast for children.

Cleanliness:
Bedsheets and linen are not changed regularly. The bed, bedding, mattresses and pillows are all extremely old.

Overall this is an extremely basic hotel, so if you are coming with family to enjoy Andamans, don't let this place ruin your holiday experience as it ruined ours.
