In a small place like Kumbakonam, Tamara is ideal to spend your vacation with family comfortably and visit temples with ease. Well trained courteous staff is their advantage.
As most of the customers come to visit temples and would like to leave early in the morning to temples, coffe/tea and limited options in breakfast can be made available at 6 am, if found feasible.

We really enjoyed our stay at Rae by Tamara. I had brought my 11 month old here and even she enjoyed it. As our trip was fully focused on experiencing the culture and beauty of the temple city, just arriving at the hotel gave us good vibes. We wanted to actually come back to the hotel everyday just to rest up a little, because we loved the good vibes and comfort. The sheets were clean, the bed was super comfy, the facilities were top notch. I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting KK. Some notable mentions for the food - the thakkali chutney with idly (made just like home cooked food), poondu kulambu pizza (who would have thought this actually worked together), Carrot halwa (sweet but nice), curd rice with potato fry (yum!).
There are only a few things that need improvement. Ordering food via room service takes much longer than anticipated. You will need to give atleast 25 minutes for it to arrive upstairs as compared to the restaurant where food is served much faster. Same goes for ironing clothes - this needs to be timed and planned earlier, because it may delay your trip if its given last minute (I had to wait a very long time). Also, if there is an automated way to see the breakdown of charges, it would be much appreciated. Thats all :)

I didn't eat in your restaurant.
Since I missed both breakfasts on my 2 days' of stay, I requested from Guru temple, to provide lunch freely on 11th when I left. They said it won't be ready by 10.45 when I returned from temple. They said that they can provide bread toast & coffee which will be charged. I felt that charges of Rs.295/- for 2 cups of milk I had room served on 9-6-26 is very high & did not have the toast & bread which I felt will be charged heavily. I vacated by 11 a.m. on 11-6-26.
