Hotel Recommendations

India Hotel Recommendations
Name	Location	Recommendation	Comments
Jukaso Inn	New Delhi	Not recommended	Good service, but room not worth the price. (Our room may not have been typical.) Try Nirula's instead.
Nirula's Hotel	New Delhi	Highly Recommended	Deluxe Suite is excellent. Decent Chinese restaurant downstairs. "Embassy" restaurant down the street is excellent.
Laxmi Villas	Bharatpur, Rajasthan	Highly Recommended	Beautiful rooms, great staff; good restaurant.
Hotel Chentoor	Madurai, Tamil Nadu	Recommended	Clean; good location.
Olive Brook Inn	Munnar, Kerala	Highly recommended	Wonderful. Superb staff and food.
Haritha Farms	Vazhakulam, Kerala	Recommended
Theravadu Heritage Home	Kumarakom, Kerala	Somewhat recommended	Next time we'll try Coconut Lagoon—looked gorgeous (but pricey).
Kapithan Inn	Kochi, Kerala	Highly recommended	Great location; great staff.
Hans Plaza Hotel	New Delhi	Not recommended	Modern, oversanitized hotel. Pricey. Nirula's was better. Nice staff.
