Hotel Southern Grand, Vijayawada

The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms, but could use a thorough cleaning. The service is a mix of hospitable and friendly interactions, but also some rudeness in charging extra fees. Its location is convenient, close to the station, though some room issues were reported. The dining experience is average in terms of value for money. The facilities provided are satisfactory but could be improved.

The hotel is conveniently located near Vijayawada railway station and offers good rooms. The stay was pleasant with friendly staff. However, there were issues with pests in the rooms and some service inefficiencies. The location near the station was practical, but not all staff members were cooperative.

The main building where we got the mobile tower but no Wi-Fi had pests infestation like cockroaches were seen quite a few, could do with a thorough cleaning, spread over three floors in Gandhinagar, Vijayawada in 2012. The hotel staff seemed to charge more than initially informed, creating confusion during the booking process. Despite promising free airport pick-up and drop-off, there was no clear communication about these services at check-in.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were large, clean, and suitable for my needs with ample hot water, but the lack of a proper key to open the door was an inconvenience. The service offered well-maintained rooms but was marred by rude behavior and unexpected charges. The location was convenient, although the area was a bit congested. The dining experience was below expectations, and the pricing did not match the value received.

The Southern Grand Hotel is in a convenient location, though a bit congested, near Vijaywada railway station. The rooms are spacious with modern amenities but could benefit from a thorough cleaning. The dining experience is satisfactory, and the facilities are well-equipped. However, there are limitations in parking space and the clarity of pricing.
