Loved by Hotel Merlin International guests
"Thrissur's oldest hotel built in 1949. This heritage building is in a tranquil three acre setting next to the railway station and bus stand in the heart of the city."
"It's really close to the railway station ( walkable distance if you take the back entrance, go left and take the over bridge)."
"Clean rooms..Location is near to railway station and the hotel is having a decent restaurant in it."

“The hotel's strongest suit seems to be its prime location near the railway and bus stations, along with a convention center that can accommodate a large crowd. While some aspects might show their age, the spacious rooms and wellness center suggest comfort and relaxation are still priorities. Its proximity to cultural sites and support for local artists could appeal to those seeking an authentic Thrissur experience.”
