I stayed with family for our  temple trip.  This is a very good place to stay.  Located away from the hustle and bustle of the kumbakonam town, near chennai by - pass.  We felt as if we were living in  a Village. The homestay offers home cooked food, but the food which is provided  here was very pathetic, with Onion and garlic on all stuffs, Hence would recommend someone who stays here to manage food outside. The Care taker Mr. Napoleon was very  friendly and helpful in helping us arrange vehicle and took care of us really well.

Homely atmoshphere, Feel at Home

We that is my husband my daughter and granddaughter happened to stay in this homestay.First and foremost is its location

Centrally located if you wish to see navagraha temples,temples around kumbakonam ,at kumbakonam plus temples around mayuram.you will be able to cover many temples in a short time.
For breakfast and lunch we went to seetharama vilas hotel which serve you hot hot vada itly almost all south indian dishes at a very reasonable rate.
The place is very quite serene and calm with good moderate ambience.
The rate is moderate and affordable.The food that was served i can say was not upto the mark as it did not raise to the expectation of south indians.Definitely one can have coffee light night food.
The staff i can say is just outstanding with very good behaviour and they have made our. Stay really homely.would really recomment to others too.

Homely stay

We stayed in this place (7th march 2020) during a temple visit to Kumbakonam. The property is located in a peaceful neighbourhood. There was car parking facility inside the compound.We stayed in a room in the ground floor.The room was spacious, air-conditioned, bright, clean and very well-maintained.There was hot water facility in the bathrooms.
All the front desk staff including  Mr Valliappan, Mr Murugan and Mr Napolean were very polite and helpful.In the morning  breakfast is available on request and if needed you can inform the front desk staff beforehand.The food was delicious.
Planning to stay there again if we go to Kumbakonam in the future

Excellent Stay at Navagraha Homestay

We stayed at Navagraha for a couple of days last year. Nice and quiet place with car parking.
The room was clean and the managers were helpful and courteous.
The best of all was the food (we have to inform them beforehand). The food was simple and nice and easy on the wallet. They also provide coffee in the morning. Again, it is better to inform them beforehand as the cooks come only on demand.
It is slightly away from the city center. It is better you have a vehicle or rent one.
They also accept online money transfer.
Highly recommended if you prefer a homely stay.
We will be staying there again soon and will update this review.

Convenient and homely

We were lucky to get a room for a family of 5 of us , including old parents. 
The room was allotted on the first floor. It was accommodating all 5 of us , with 2 of is sleeping in the floor on extra beds. 
Though the room space was ok, I felt that rest took fittings and cleanliness could have been a bit more better. 
Also, just now i happened to see the fotos of the other rooms (ground floor probably) , which look far better , with white bed sheets which give a better look and sense of cleanliness,  than the lungi-like bedsheets. :) Nevertheless,  the stay place was surrounded by residential houses , and the campus could accommodate our car as well. Napoleon was very much helpful and arranged for washing the car as well. But yeah, since the premises is in a non reachable location for public transportation,  get your own transport. 

Best Regards,
Sriram

Temple Visit 

We stayed for 2 days in this place and the stay is a very pleasant experience. Mr Napoleon at the front desk takes care of guest very well. It is a homely atmosphere, rooms were decent and bathrooms were clean, their four bedded apartment beds are huge and can easily accommodate 6 adults in the room. It is a huge and spacious room and a great value for money if you are going as a family. 

Their single room is also good and decent enough. Mr Murugan another in charge at front desk is a warm person and take care of your requirements. Their morning breakfast is to be paid not included in the room, is very tasty and a must try. 

Overall I would recommend this place to families who would like to have a homely atmosphere when they are visiting Kumbakonam instead of trig run of the mill hotels.


Our Family of 6 people went to Kumbakonam on a pilgrimage tour for 2 days early this month. I booked this place after seeing positive reviews in booking sites though I was a bit apprehensive as to how it will turn out. 

We booked two rooms. They were very comfortable. The bathrooms were very clean. The front office staff was very courteous. Originally we were planning to stay here only for a day but after 1st day's stay, we were impressed and extended our stay by one more day. They have good wifi connectivity. If you wish to order food through them, you need to tell them in advance though I recommend going to restaurants directly which I felt was more convenient.

I would recommend people to consider this place if they are thinking of staying at kumbakonam for their future trips.

Pleasant stay

Went to Kumbakonam. Stayed here with family. Good room, clean & neat . Staff very kind and caring. Food is given on request. Homely preparation, tasty but not many varieties. our wishes to Murugan, Nepolean & manager chettiar. We will stay there next time also. Thanks

Really home like accommodation

Stayed here on Feb 17 th and Feb 18th 

Clean and friendly place. Satyed to visit temples around. Decent food, if you order before. Food and coffee - you have to order in advance, otherwise they do not provide. Outside the city limits. you need to have your own car/two wheeler to travel to City Center or visit temples. there is no auto available nearby. We went from Madras by our own car...so it was easier..otherwise would be difficult.... Within walking distance there is a small restaurant for (not very decent). Need to travel 2 or 3 km to get to a nice vegetarian restaurant. Cleanliness can be improved....wash basins are not maintained clean. Requested for coffee on the day of departure at 5 am.....and the staff did not come to work at that time and the boy (Nappolean by Name) kept insisting that the kitchen staff was on the way and we never had any service on the day of departure. We did not give tips to the Kitchen staff the previous night....so may be thry did not care for us....OK for a night stay, not for long term

But the manager Mr.Murugan is very helpful, friendly and courteous. Would recommend to stay if you plan to visit places around KKM, but have your own transportation

Away from town and temples......

Stayed  in Navagraha homestay. Rooms are neat and clean. Service is also  good. No restaurant, They prepare food to order. Good place for a family to stay. Peaceful location, little far from city central.
