I’d like to share my experience at this lovely double house with 5 rooms. The room we booked for the steering was fantastic! 🌟 It had a separate area for exchanging clothes and a dressing table, which really helped to ensure that those still resting weren’t disturbed. I would rate the facilities a solid 10/10. The service was also excellent—I'm pleased to say I would rate their responsiveness at 10/10, and the complimentary breakfast was a wonderful touch. I highly recommend this accommodation for anyone traveling with larger groups, whether you’re with family, relatives, couples, or friends getting together. It truly deserves a 10/10 rating! This reflects my personal experience, and I’m truly grateful for the comfort we all enjoyed during our stay. A big thank you to the management! I will certainly be recommending this place to our friends and relatives.

Can really recommend this place! It‘s a bit further out, which can be a shock in the first moment. But after the first moment, you‘ll realize it’s the best place you could have ended up! The couple wich provides the homestay is really friendly and she makes the best Indian breakfast I had before! Because it’s a bit further out, its not as loud in the night as in other places in madurai, wich helps you sleep. The couple helps you out in every way if you need something (for example a taxi, where they make sure you don’t get ripped off). The room was also very nice! In total: I can recommend and will return 100%! Very nice people, great food servings and also good location! Thank you for the wonderful stay! P.S: They won the prize for best homestay of Tamil Nadu in 2023 and I can really see why!!!

Avea Accommodation

Madurai

Featuring free WiFi, Avea Accommodation offers accommodation in Madurai. Free private parking is available on site. Rooms are equipped with a flat-screen TV.

Avea is located in Anna Nagar. The building has a lot of creepers, which really helps to provide some form of privacy from the other buildings and the main street. Getting an auto or an Ola ride is also pretty easy from here. A popular landmark is Ambiga Cinemas, which is across the road (in case you need to tell the auto driver for pick up/drop off). The room was slightly small, but it was clean and comfortable enough for a few nights' stay. There are also some tables and chairs for guests to use downstairs. We were happy with our room. The host at the reception (Ram) is such a nice guy! He answered each and every query patiently, suggested different options for us to take the auto, about visiting the Meenakshi temple, as well as some of the logistics for our next trip to Pondicherry. That honestly made our stay a lot more comfortable and relaxed. Thank you! Although there aren't breakfast options at the hotel itself, there are MANY restaurants, bakeries, tea stalls etc along the street/walking distance. There's a stall in the evening (right opposite the hotel - across the road), selling crispy vada and other local snacks. I'd definitely recommend for you to try it. Yummo! There are mosquitoes outside - just use repellent, and you will be fine!

It’s a really tiny room including a splendid roof top in the opposite of the beautiful Nayak Palace. Jevaan is a great host really taking care of his guests. He provides a very proper room, filtered water and helps in any situation. You can join him easily on any messenger and he’ll reply immediately. Also, we liked the daily chats about culture, history and daily life in India.

    It's a wonderful place with a nice terrace. The lady was such a nice, kind and helpful person. She makes really good food. The man was a bit weird but at the same time funny. I would have appreciated if he had knocked at the door when entering the dorm. However, I would definitely recommend this home stay.

    Lovely hosts, very welcoming. Dinner was delicious. Very helpfull with advice and local knowledge. Got me a coffee at 530am because I had an early start 👍 Room size is what you would expect in a homestay but had everything I needed including a large patio area and great view of the lake. I'd stay again if I'm ever in Madurai.

    We loved this home stay! The host family is very friendly and thoughtful. Beautiful home with great amenities. Delicious food, the best tea so far, hot water and a very clean room with eficient AC. Also we enjoyed a lot the information found in the room about the main touristic attractions.
