The rooms were pretty big as compared to other hotels located in temple towns ...I being an avid traveller to various temple towns felt the space is quite spacious and well maintained...the bathrooms were clean and met my expectations...the hospitality of the staff at front desk and restaurant require a special appreciation...the food was quite tasty and had a homely touch as they customised it to our taste ...They have a pretty large outer space to walk around and the swimming pool was well maintained too...They now have a dedicated space for kids to play around which is quite a relief for families travelling with small children during their temple visits...the space they have created is spacious enough and well equipped with children play equipment safe and child friendly...Overall an contentful stay with a blissful view of Arunachala from the room balcony and to top it I had the most peaceful sleep all throughout my stay there...I would surely recommend families especially with kids and solo travellers to go ahead with their stay plans in this beautiful place called Athena

The hotel was clean and located just within the Tiruvannamalai hill. It has a balcony and we can see the hill clearly from our room, which was extra special for us. The morning atmosphere was amazing since we heard birds chirping as we experienced a little bit of a village breeze. The sun rise was extremely beautiful and we snapped photos/videos from the roof top area. Beside, the name Athena was significant as the Greek goddess’s image was there in the hotel signifying the importance of wisdom. Moreover, the blends of Indian culture with Greek, truly made me felt a feeling of acceptance. What a concept! All the staff there were extremely respectful and polite to us.

Happy with my stay at Athena Room-202, first floor. It was a Queen Suite with a comfy double bed and balcony. Location is very near to the highway and jus few meters is the hotel. Nice room facilities with a chair and sofa in the room. Balcony had additional two comfy plastic chairs. Nice view of the Arunachala hills from the room and balcony. A very spacious car parking provided. Restaurant was placed in the ground floor and room service was very good. Very happy with the quickest check-in and check-out at the facility. Overall it was a wonderful trip and thanks to Athena and it's staff for the great hospitality.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Athena hotel. Having initially booked for 30 nights I subsequently extended for another ~2 weeks. The staff are wonderful. The location is not entirely convenient for the Ramana Ashram, which is ~45 minutes’ walk away or ~8 minutes by Autorickshaw (~150 Rs). The location has the advantages of being less noisy and polluted than being in the immediate vicinities of either the Ramana Ashram or the Arunachalesvara Temple. Girivalam Road is close by via a short access route that joins the road at the Niruthi Lingam.

Clean, neat, very friendly staff, Ashraf and Raj (at the front desk) went the extra mile. After completing the girivalam, being a senior citizen, I needed transport to get to various ashrams. They engaged the services of an excellent individual called Paneerselvam. He came with me, stayed patiently and dropped me off without a fuss. The food was good and service staff courteous.
