Top Five Rathas Hotel Reviews

Four Points by Sheraton Mahabalipuram Resort & Convention Center

Four Points by Sheraton Mahabalipuram Resort & Convention Center

8/10 Good
"It's a solid four star but a long way from a five star. Very comfortable bed, but old AC unit took hours to cool the room and had to use ceiling fan for half the night on very high speed. While very clean, it's worn in places, paint peeling, dated / worn fittings etc. Food was good, had buffet at evening. If you want a cheaper option than the five stars on ECR, it's good and seems suitable for children, with very shallow pool (I prefer deeper as I like to swim properly). and other games areas. It's a bit noisy as right next to very busy junction. But staff were very helpful and pool staff very friendly. It's not like in the photos, that is for sure!! Much more dated."

10/10 Excellent
"We recently had a weekend getaway with family including young child, it was perfect. Resort had alll amenities for a relaxing getaway. Complimentary buffet breakfast had wide variety which was delicious. Everything we ate from the two resort restaurants was delicious. The pool is on the smaller side but clean with lifeguard available. The beach view is the highlight. There were private weddings and event happening on the beach side which kept environment lively. Private beach access basically had the whole beach to ourselves, though take caution in the waters as the sea is pretty rough. Spa and gym available. Kids Activities, bicycling and pedal boating available at extra cost. MGM size world theme park was right next to the building is an optional activity for children. Buggy ride available on request. All service staff were polite and helpful"

"The room and stay was excellent. Only thing was that we stayed in the Family room No.220 and the TV, phone and the Kettle did not work initially. Then they made the TV and the kettle to work but the phone was out of order and hence calling the reception became a problem. Other than this one thing, everything else was fabulous. We were taken very good care. Will visit this resort again for sure."
